Adjustments and operations
Operations - Important points
• Retighten nuts and bolts after the first day of work and check the conditions
of all pins and cotter pins. Then, retighten every 24 operating hours.
• Carefully observe the lubrication intervals.
• The tires inflation must always be done with a contention device (inflation
cage).
• The tires inflation is important; keep the pressure according to the instructions
on the 'tires inflation' page.
• Choose a gear that allows the tractor to maintain certain power reserve,
ensuring against unforeseen efforts.
• The speed is relative to the tractor gear and can only be determined by local
conditions. We adopted an average 5 to 6 km/h, which is not advisable to
overcome to maintain service efficiency and avoid possible damages to the
equipment.
• Only people who owns a full knowledge of the tractor and equipment must
operate them.
• To hitch the equipment to the tractor, carry out maneuvers on a lower gear
and on a wide area, being ready to brake when close enough.
• The tractor drawbar must remain fixed during working and transportation.
• Always operate on a careful and controlled way.
• Activate the hydraulic cylinder gradually to lift the disc gangs before
maneuvering, thus avoiding a great effort on the equipment and especially
on the traction components.
• Do not check eventual leaks with your bare hands, the high pressure may
cause body injury; use cardboard or other suitable object.
• During working (being the disc blades and shanks on the soil) do not
maneuver in an abrupt manner, as the angle that would form by the disc
gangs would transmit great effort to the equipment, thus overloading the
traction components.
• Keep the equipment leveled.
• Over compacted soils the cutting depth may be minimal, leading to an
unsatisfactory operation. On these cases, we recommend to use a more
suitable equipment for the job.
• During working or transportation, do not allow passengers on the tractor or
equipment.
• Remove any object that may get stuck on the disc blades.
• Relieve the control valve pressure before disconnecting the quick couplers
and when doing any verification on the hydraulic cylinder.
• As previously mentioned, this equipment has several settings. However, only
the local conditions can determine its best adjustment.
