COUPLING MODALITIES

5.1 - HITCHING TO THE TRACTOR
Check that the tractor’s “permissible carried weight” and the “rear overhang allowed”
are compatible with the weight and dimensions of the fully loaded spray atomiser and
complete with equipment mounted for the treatment (see Paragraphs “3.1” - “4.4.1”
and the attached documentation).
The tractor’s power take-off (PTO), under all utilisation conditions, must provide a
power exceeding that absorbed by the spray atomiser.
The hitching between spray atomiser and tractor must be carried out on a flat surface, keeping away
persons not involved in the operation, as well as children and animals.
EXECUTION:
1. Loosen the chains of the lifter arms.
2. Start the tractor and take the lifter’s arms to the level of the machine’s pins..
3.
Stop the tractor and remove the key from the control panel.
4. Insert the toggle joints on the machine’s pegs, locking them with the clip pins.
5. Remove the 3
rd
-point rod of the tractor and mount it on the machine, securing it with the peg and
the clip pin.
6. Hook the rod to the tractor again, securing it with the peg and clip pin, screwing it finger-tight to
set it into tension.
7. Start the tractor and hoist the spray atomiser to take the 2 drive outlets (PdP) to the same height.
8.
Stop the tractor, remove the key from the control panel and make sure that
no one approaches the hydraulic controls of the lifter.
NEVER OPERATE OR STAND BENEATH THE MACHINE OR IN THE AREA
THAT COULD BE INVOLVED IN ITS SUDDEN LOWERING.
9. By acting on the 3
rd
-point rod, vertically align the spray atomiser.
N.B.: block the 3
rd
-point rod
with the specific lock ring.
10. Block the coupling by tightening the chains of the hoister arms.
When the operation is completed the 2 drive outlets (PTO) must be positioned on the
same axis, both in vertical and horizontal direction.
