7. Set-up instructions
Preparing the equipment
The equipment must always be parked on a dry and flat place, free from any debris or
strange objects. Follow this procedure to set the equipment up:
1. Clean up to remove strange objects from the equipment and from the working area;
2. Make sure that there is enough room to maneuver the tractor until it hitches to the
equipment;
3. Turn on the tractor and slowly approach it to the hitching point direction;
4. Use a clean cloth or a paper towel to clean the couplers in the end of the hoses. Also,
clean the area around the tractor couplers;
5.
Lubricate all grease fittings appropriately (see the 'lubrication' page in the
'maintenance' section).
Hitching to the tractor
1. Approach the tractor and couple
the hoses (A) to the quick couplers.
2. To do so, shut down the engine,
relieve the control valve pressure
by activating the lever a couple of
times.
3. Check if the quick couplers are
clean.
4. Check the drawbar type from your tractor. To hitch the equipment, use the tractor
drawbar.
5. Use the jack (E) on the drawbar to lift or lower the tractor hitch so it is possible to
align it with the tractor drawbar.
6. Couple the drawbar (B) to the tractor drawbar using the pin (C). Use a bushing (D)
on the hitch that matches the pin (C) that is about to be used. Note that the tractor
drawbar must always remain centered on the tractor.
7. Fasten the safety chain (F) to the tractor and equipment, but leave a small clearance
to allow the equipment to perform maneuvers.
