WARNING
AVOID INJURY OR DEATH
Make sure that there are no bystanders, especially
children, in the coupling area.
Before coupling the equipment, place the tractor
axis and the machine axis on a hard, flat, level
ground. Switch off the tractor engine, remove the
ignition key and engage the tractor parking brake.
Level the wrapping machine by selecting the
appropriate adjustment opening in the hitch.
Check whether the machine is properly connected
and secured against accidental disconnection.
Make sure that the tractor auxiliary hydraulic
system is without pressure. Move the relevant
control lever in cabin to eliminate the residual
pressure in the circuit.
Enter the operator’s position.
Move the tractor into position in front of the
equipment. Move the tractor backwards, aligning
the tractor hitch and equipment hitch-ring.
Leave the operator’s position.
Install the hitch pin and retaining pin to securely
fasten the Backsaver Auger hitch to the tractor
draw bar. Attach the safety chain around the draw
bar.
NOTE: Always use a hitch pin of adequate size and
strength and a retaining pin with a locking
device.
Plug the electric power source. Check if the
operating and signaling systems work properly.
Connect the hydraulic power source. Check if the
hydraulic systems work properly, especially the
lifting and blocking mechanisms responsible for
controlling the working and transport positions.
Load the first bale and make sure that the vertical
load on the tractor front axle is larger than 20% of
the tractor weight. The tractor should remain fully
steerable.
CONNECTING TO TRACTOR
Always inspect the tractor’s hitch and equipment
hitch-ring before connecting (see the tractor’s
owner’s manual).
Make sure equipment hitch is resting securely on
the support stand. Change the hitch to the lower
or upper position as required.
