$ INSTRUCTIONS FOR WORK
1. Putting the machine into work
position
From the transport position:
- Pull the release cord until transport lock is released.
- Activate the transport/work cylinder control valve in
the "pivot into work" position.
The machine is in headland turn position.
- Lower the tractor three-point linkage:
H = 400 mm (1’4’’).
The machine is in working position.
Before placing the machine in working
position:
- Wait until the rotating parts have come
to a complete stop.
- Check that nobody is within the machine
pivoting area.
- If there is someone, make sure the
person moves away.
If the tractor is fitted with a hydraulic valve with
adjustable flow rate, reduce oil flow to limit
pivoting speed.
