4.7.2 PULL PROGRAMMING DEVICE SETTING
ATTENTION: THE OPERATIONS TO SET THE PULL MUST BE CARRIED OUT WITH
STARTED DIESEL ENGINE BUT WITH STOPPED MACHINE.

Start the diesel engine and set the engine at about 1600
rpm.

Move the selectors (table 1, pos. 32-38) on position
(rightwards
– red light on).

Gently move towards (downwards) the levers (table 1,
pos. 34-40).

Turn the knobs (table 1, pos. 33-39)
till on the manometer ring nut (table 1, pos. 30-36) can be
read the pull value that must not be exceeded.
ATTENTION: the red arrow of the pull limiting device (paragraph 4.7.1) has to be
positioned at a higher value than the one pre-set with the PULL PROGRAMMING
DEVICE to avoid the machine stop.
DANGER: when using the machine as a tensioner set the automatic pull limiting device
on the maximum bottom of scale value to avoid dangerous stopping that could be
extremely dangerous and generate serious damages.

Gently move the levers (table 1, pos. 34-40) to central position (neutral
position).

Re-place the selectors (table 1, pos. 32-38) on position (leftwards).
Once reached the pre-set pull, the bull-wheels automatically slow down, stop or reverse the
movement keeping the pull.
