care when running the tractor. Choose
safe speed, corresponding to road
conditions, in particular during cross-
country terrain driving, driving across
ditches, slopes and at sharp turns.
• When operating on slopes expand
tractor wheel track to maximum.
• Do not turn sharply under full load and
at high travelling speed.
• When using tractor for hauling
operations:
- Increase tractor wheel track at least to
1800 mm (70
’
’);
- Interlock brake pedals, check and, if
necessary, adjust brakes for
synchronous action;
- Check parking brake operation;
- Check the state of light and audible alarm
devices;
- Transport trailers should be provided
with rigid hitches and also be coupled
by means of safety chain or pull rope;
- Never move down the hill with gear
disengaged (coasting). Move in one and
the same gear both uphill and downhill;
- It is prohibited to operate the trailer
without stand-alone brakes, if its mass
exceeds the half of total actual tractor
mass. The faster you move and the
larger the mass being towed, the larger
safe distance should be;
- Disengage FDA to avoid excessive
wear of drive parts and tires;
- Do not use rear axle DL at speed over
10 km/h and when turning;
- Do not stop the tractor on slopes. If the
stop is necessary, put into the 1
st
gear and
engage the parking brake.
• When operating PTO driven
equipment, after the engine stoppage
before leaving the cabin and
disconnecting the equipment make sure
that PTO drive end is fully stopped.
• Do not wear loose clothes when
operating PTO or in the vicinity of
rotating equipment.
• When operating PTO driven stationary
machines, always engage the parking
brake and block rear wheels fore and aft.
Make sure the machine is securely fixed.
• Make sure that PTO drive end guard
is installed and, if PTO is not used,
place the cap of PTO drive end into its
position.
• Do not make cleaning, adjustment or
service of PTO driven equipment with
running engine.
Safety requirements during
maintenance
• Never fuel the tractor with engine
running.
• Do not smoke when fuelling a tractor.
• Do not fill in fuel tanks to the full. Leave
some space for fuel expansion.
• Never add gasoline or other mixtures
to diesel fuel. Such combinations may
create enhanced inflammability or explosion
hazard.
• Use summer and winter grades of fuel
properly. Fill in the fuel tank at the end
of each day to reduce night-time
moisture condensation.
• Fill in the tractor only with oils and
lubricants recommended by the works.
It is strictly prohibited to use other
lubricants!
• Perform all operations related to
cleaning of engine and tractor,
preparation for work, maintenance
etc. with engine shut down and tractor
braked.
• The cooling system is functioning
under pressure, which is maintained by
means of a valve installed in the filling
neck cover. It is dangerous to remove
cover on the hot engine. To avoid
burns of face and hands be careful to
open the plug of radiator neck on the
hot engine. First, put tight cloth on the
plug and put on a gantlet.
• To avoid burns take care when
draining cooling fluid from the cooling
system, hot oil from the engine,
hydraulic system and transmission.
• Take care when handling storage
batteries, as electrolyte may cause
burns when splashed on skin.
• To avoid danger of explosion keep
open flame sources away from engine
fuel system and storage batteries.
