MACHINERY/EQUIPMENT CONNECTED TO HYDRAULICS
Be careful when you connect your machine or equipment to a hydraulic hose.
DANGER!
Pressurised oil and fuel leaks can penetrate skin and cause serious injuries. Do not use your
hands to locate leaks. Use a piece of paper or cardboard to search for leaks.
• Warning of high pressure, risk of penetration injury.
• Before repairs or maintenance are carried out, the system must be relieved of any remaining
pressure.
• Turn off the tractor and move the hydraulic levers back and forth to release any pressure that
may still be in the oil hoses and pipes before starting any work on them or the hydraulic cylinders.
• Clean the filter in the suction pipe after 10 hours' work.
• Immediately replace hydraulic hoses if cracks or wear are detected.
• Do not adjust the valve settings. Incorrect adjustment can result in damage to the machine
and/or injury.
• The hydraulic system must only be operated using hydraulic oil intended for the purpose.
Check the oil level before you start the machine!
• When commissioning a new machine, it is recommended that the hydraulic oil is changed
after the first 10 hours of operation, in order to remove any dirt or metal chips which may have
got into the hydraulic system.
POWER TAKE-OFF SHAFT
(PTO SHAFT)
Things to remember when operating equipment with a PTO shaft
The transmission to the gearbox is protected both by the PTO drive shaft and by the shear bolt.
All guards should be correctly assembled and in good condition. If the guards are in poor condition
or worn out, they should be replaced before the equipment is used.
DANGER!
If the PTO shaft is not correctly protected, it can result in death, as it can trap parts of
the body or clothing and cause life-threatening injury.
Ensure that the safety chain is correctly anchored to the PTO drive shaft and that the PTO shaft
is protected along its entire length. Ensure that the PTO shaft spins easily inside the protective
tubular pipe. Keep the spline grooves clean and well lubricated so that the PTO drive shaft can be
connected easily.
For adjustment and use of the PTO shaft, see the PTO shaft operating manual.
Never overload the PTO shaft! Never exceed the PTO shaft’s maximum speed.
NOTE The oil becomes hot when it flows through the hydraulic system. Check the oil temperature at regular intervals
in order to avoid overheating. Stop the machine if the oil becomes overheated and allow the oil to cool down.
Warning! Rotating power take-off
Warning! Risk of crushing!
