WARNING:
!
Before operating the tractor with PTO driven implements, familiarize yourself with
the safety precautions given below and strictly observe them:
1. Before connecting, disconnecting, cleaning or adjusting the PTO driven
implements, disengage the PTO drive, stop the engine, remove the key, apply
the hand brake and make sure that the PTO drive line has stopped.
2. Do not operate the PTO driven implements without the master shield fitted.
3. Make certain the implement drive shaft is securely locked on the tractor PTO
shaft before starting the engine.
4. After locking the drive shaft on the tractor PTO shaft, attach the drive shaft guard
safety chains to the master shields.
5. Fit the removable cap when the PTO drive line is not in use.
Operating the PTO
To obtain 540 rpm at the PTO:
set the engine speed to 2110 rpm,
pull the PTO clutch lever 6 (Fig. 3.2) upwards,
bring the PTO selector lever 7 (Fig. 3.2) to engaged position by pulling it up,
release the PTO clutch lever by pressing the knob at the top of the lever, and then release it.
NOTE:
Bring the PTO clutch lever to disengaged position (pulled up) while shifting the PTO
selector lever to engaged or neutral position.
The drive is transmitted from the tractor PTO shaft to the implement by a telescopic-articulated shaft
with guard. This guard ensures safe operation of the drive shaft only if a master shield both on the
tractor and on the implement are fitted. The tractor is fitted with PTO guard 4 (Fig. 4.6.2).
When connecting the drive shaft to the tractor and to the implement, this should be carried out strictly
in accordance with the drive shaft or implement manufacturer operating instructions.
If PTO driven implements is attached to the drawbar, then the drawbar should be set to the position
which ensures that the horizontal distance between the end of the PTO shaft and the pin hole in the
end of the drawbar is at least 400 mm.
To engage PTO drive move the PTO clutch lever (6
– Fig. 3.2). On lower position the PTO is
engaged. Puling the lever upwards the PTO drive is disengaged. To engage again release the lever
pulling the knob on its end.
To engage the ground speed PTO:
Press the transmission clutch pedal fully,
move the PTO selector lever down to the ground speed PTO operation,
select the ground speed of the tractor by selecting the appropriate transmission gear ratio and
release the clutch pedal,
using the throttle, control the tractor speed.
NOTE:
Press the clutch pedal fully for shifting the PTO selector lever from neutral to ground speed
operation and vice-versa.
WARNING:
!
To avoid inadvertent movement of the implement, keep the PTO selector lever in
neutral after each use.
