CAR-TMXXXX USER MANUAL
USE IN SAFETY CONDITIONS
Most accidents that take place at work, maintenance operations and machine displacement are due to lack
of compliance with the most elementary norms of accident prevention.
Therefore, it is essential for those who are authorized to use the machines to read and thoroughly follow
both the instructions below and the stickers applied to the machine.
1. Read this manual carefully before carrying out any operations of use, adjustment and maintenance.
2. Always stop the tractor engine, wait until all moving parts have stopped and detach the PTO shaft, before
carrying out any operations for adjustment, maintenance or cleaning. Always rest the machine on the
ground or on strong stands. Never lay down under the machine without these stands or without checking
the stability of the machine.
3. Before use always make sure the screws or the nuts are tight, specially for blades or tines.
4. Always work with guards mounted, both on machine and PTO shaft. Should the guards be damaged, they
should be replaced at once.
5. Keep anyone and all animals away before starting your machine. The dangerous area extends 15 meters
around the machine.
6. Be particularly careful when working along roads or paths because of the possible projection of stones.
Never exceed the prescribed slopes when using your tractor and always avoid particularly steep working
areas.
7. Operate with suitable lighting only
8. A tractor with a cabin to protect the operator should be preferred.
9. Do not let the machine run unattended.
10. During checks and repairs make sure no one can start the machine accidentally.
11. Wear tight clothes without any loose parts which could be caught in moving parts or in the machine
rotating parts. Wear accident prevention shoes and wear gloves if you have to handle blades or parts with
sharp edges. In case of extended use and on tractor with no cabin use suitable sound deadening devices
(ear plugs or head sets).
12. Do not carry people or property on the machine or tractor at work during a road transfer
13. The PTO shaft guards shall always be in good operating conditions at work and fixed with the safety
chains preventing them from turning. Should the guards be damaged or worn, replace them immediately
with other original guards
14. Or circulating on public roads, the operator shall make sure his/her machine complies with the
current highway code and shall personally comply with the current standards in force in their country
scrupulously.
15. For your safety and that of any third parties and not to make the guarantee null and void, use original
spare parts only. Use the required personal protection means at all times.
16. Mind the dangers any rotating tools may cause.
17. Always use the machine on a grassy ground. Stop the gearbox to stop the tines for transportation or
when crossing areas with no grass.
18. CARONY SPA shall not be liable for lack of compliance with these standards
START-UP
Carry out all the operations for start-up when the tractor engine is stopped, the PTO shaft is disconnected
and all the transmission parts to the tools are stopped.
Before start working fill the gearbox with oil HD 80 W 90. When closing the cap, do not tighten it too tight
in order to prevent the gasket deformation which could generate oil leaks.
Check the direction of rotation and the rpm of the tractor and of the machine PTO, which shall necessarily
be the same as the ones signaled on the machine next to the PTO with two yellow stickers.
DANGER
It is forbidden to use the machine at a speed either than the one specified in the label.
USE ONLY
CE marked PTO shaft with guards. Once the machine has been hitched to the tractor, check the exact
length of the PTO shaft.
