Preparing for operation
Prepare for soil preparation according to your machine configuration:
•
Rotor speed
•
Working depth
•
Side plates
•
Levelling bar
•
Track eradicator
Prerequisites for the preparation work:
Machine is coupled to the tractor and all connections are properly
made
The machine is in its work position
The machine frame is parallel to the ground
Handbrake in tractor is applied
The following applies when performing all operations:
Secure the machine
Lower the machine to its work position
Make settings as desired
Move the machine back into the transport position
Only connect the hydraulics when depressurised
Only connect the hydraulic hoses to the tractor hydraulic system if
the tractor and machine hydraulic system is depressurised.
A hydraulic system under pressure can trigger unpredictable move-
ments of the machine and cause personal injury.
Check the hydraulic hoses and hydraulic couplings
Before making connections, check all hydraulic hoses for damage.
Check all hydraulic couplings for firm seating after connecting
them.
Defective hydraulic hoses or incorrectly seated hydraulic couplings
can trigger unpredictable machine movements and cause injuries.
Securing the control units
In the transport position, secure the control units on the tractor to
prevent accidental operation.
Accidental actuation of the control units can trigger unpredictable
movements on the machine and cause accidents.
