Couple drawbar
WARNING
Risk of being crushed, drawn in, becoming entangled and risk of
impact to people if the machine accidentally loosens from the
tractor!
Check whether the coupling device on your tractor is licensed for
taking up the machine's drawgear.
Absolutely observe the information in the chapter "Preconditions
for the operation of tractors with rigid drawbar trailers"“, page
Properly hitch the machine to the tractor and secure it.
Never use damaged or deformed trailer systems.
WARNING
Risk of being crushed and of impact to people standing between
tractor and machine while the machine is being hitched!
Make sure that people leave the hazardous area between tractor and
machine before approaching the machine.
Present helpers are only allowed to act as a guide next to the tractor
and the machine and to enter the space between the tractor and the
machine after the vehicles have completely stopped.
5.9.3.1 Bolt-type coupling
1. Secure the machine against rolling.
2. Prepare hitching up:
Remove the coupling bolt (non-automatic bolt-type coupling).
Open the hitch, i.e. it should be in a pre-coupling position (automatic bolt-type coupling).
3. Make sure that people leave the hazardous area between tractor and machine before
approaching the machine.
4. Reverse tractor:
such that tractor and machine can be coupled by means of the coupling bolt (non-automatic
bolt-type coupling).
until the bolt-type coupling engages in the drawbar lug (automatic bolt-type coupling).
5. Secure the tractor against accidental starting and rolling.
6. Check that the connection is secure after coupling:
Secure the inserted coupling bolt by positive locking (non-automatic bolt-type coupling).
Ensure that the automatic bolt-type coupling is locked (control pin, end position of operating
lever etc.).
7. Connect the supply lines.
8. Lift the supporting leg to transport position.
9. Release the parking brake of the machine.
