PLACEMENT OF THE MACHINE IN THE FIELD
1) For MR and MR/1 manually release the tow bar from the tractor and lift it so the front anchor plate adequately anchors to the ground, then hook
the safety chain between tow bar and traveller.
For MRR and R1AT15
lower the front manual stabiliser leg (see ref. 7 par.2.1) until a suffi cient height from the ground of the drawbar eye is
reached for the machine to be unhitched from the tractor.
2) Release the drawbar eye of the machine from the tractor, then check traveller planarity to the ground, and if needed correct height from the ground
of the front stabiliser leg.
3) If the machine is Road-approved, the braking and lights systems between machine and tractor need to be disconnected, it is also essential to
remove the extension safety stops.
DANGER
Failure to comply with this rule leads to structural damage and hazard situations.
4) (only for MRR and R1AT15 ) remove the safety pin for turret rotation stop in the suitable seat arranged on the traveller (see ref. 21 par.2.1) and
manually rotate the reel on the vertical axis of the machine, orienting the reel to the area to be irrigated and taking care to aim it as straight as
possible with respect to the hose unwinding direction.
5) (only for MRR and R1AT15 ) insert the rotation stop pin in the seat of the spokes on the traveller and closest to the chosen position.
6) Manually lower the rear anchor stabilisers and the raingun trolley. This anchoring manoeuvre to the ground must provide maximum stability to the
traveller and turret of the machine during hose unwinding and reeling in.
7) Turn the computer on if the machine is fi tted with it.
8) Pull the ratchet lever in the RELEASE position
so that the reel is able to rotate in both directions.
To aid in this operation insert the handwheel in the gearbox PTO (see
ref. 68 par.2.6.1) and turn the reel clockwise.
RELEASE
HITCHING
9) Move the lever on the turbo gearbox into the STOP position.
STOP
WORK
10) Hitch the tractor to the appropriate towing point of the raingun trolley and start the hose unwinding operation, which must take place complying
with a constant speed of 2 - 3 km/h and gradually slow down near the point of arrival.
Note: Always leave one loop of hose wound on the reel.
FR
Upon fi rst hose unwinding, ensure braking is correct. The automatic
band brake on the gearbox is adjusted with the appropriate screw.
Upon fi rst commissioning at the start of the irrigation season, the hose must be fully unwound leaving only 2 loops wound on the reel. This is in
order to check the correct operation position of the hose guide fork (see chapter 6.5 item 1).
10) Unhitch the tractor from the raingun trolley.
