Safety
2.2.5 Attached Equipment
1. Take steps to prevent implements from rolling!
2. Take care not to exceed the maximum permitted
load of the trailer coupling, adjustable drawbar or
hitch coupling!
3. When using a drawbar, make sure that the
coupling point has sufficient freedom of movement!
2.2.6 Power Take-Off Operation
1. Use only PTO shafts specified by the
manufacturer!
2. The guard tube and guard cone of the PTO and the
PTO guard must be attached and in good working
condition (on the implement side, too)!
3. Make sure that the required tube covers are in
place for PTO shafts in transport and working
position!
4. Before installing or removing PTO shafts,
disengage the PTO, switch off the engine and
remove the ignition key!
5. When using PTO shafts with an overload safety or
free-running coupling which are not shielded by the
guard on the tractor, mount the overload safety or
free-running coupling on the implement side!
6. Always make sure that the PTO shaft is properly
installed and secured!
7. Attach chains to prevent the PTO shaft guard from
rotating with the shaft!
8. Before engaging the PTO shaft, make sure that the
selected PTO shaft speed of the tractor matches
the permissible implement speed!
9. Before engaging the PTO shaft, make sure
that no one is in the hazard area around the
implement!
10. Never engage the PTO shaft if the engine is
switched off!
11. No one should be in the vicinity of the rotating PTO
shaft when it is in use.
12. Always switch off PTO shaft when the angle is too
large or the PTO shaft is not required!
13. Caution! The flywheel will continue to rotate for
some time even after the PTO shaft has been
disengaged! Keep clear of the implement during
this time. Do not do any work on the implement
until the machine has come to a complete stand-
still and the flywheel has been secured using the
hand brake.
14. Disengage the PTO shaft, stop the engine and
remove the ignition key before cleaning, lubricating
and adjusting the PTO shaft driven implements or
the PTO shaft! Secure the fly-wheel with the hand
brake.
15. Place the disconnected PTO shaft onto the bra-
cket provided!
16. After removing the PTO shaft, attach the protective
cover to the PTO shaft end!
17. If damage occurs, correct this immediately before
using the implement!
2.2.7 Hydraulic System
1. The hydraulic system is pressurized!
2. When connecting hydraulic cylinders and
engines, make sure that the hydraulic hoses are
connected correctly!
3. When connecting the hydraulic hoses to the
tractor hydraulics, make sure that the hydraulics of
both the tractor and the implement have been
depressurized!
4. In the case of hydraulic connections between
tractor and implement, the coupling sleeves and
plugs should be marked to ensure a proper
connection! If the connections are reversed, the
function will be reversed (e.g. raise/lower) -
risk of
accidents!
5. Check the hydraulic hose lines at regular intervals
and replace them if damaged or worn! The new
hoses must fulfill the technical requirements set by
the manufacturer of the implement!
6. When searching for leaks, use suitable aids to
avoid the risk of injuries!
