SAFETY HINTS FOR THE USER
DRIVING OPERATION
11. Check the hoses of hydrostatic
steering, brakes, and fuel system for
proper conditions. In case of detecting
any symptoms of damage, replace the
hoses immediately. Cracks on the hose
surface, loss of the hose fitting pre-
tensioning (which can be proved by its
easy removal from the socket) and its
mechanical damage are such symptoms,
for instance.Hoses with specified service
life shall be replaced as soon as their
service life expires.
12. In case the tractor uses bio-fuels for
its operation, its fuel system shall be
fitted with REP hoses. (The manufac-
turer furnishes the fuel system with
REP 6 hoses).
13. Brakes and steering shall be kept in
perfect conditions.
14. When driving on roads, with trailers,
and implements, the pedals shall be
latched together.
15. Driving downhill with no speed gear
engaged is forbidden!
16. Special caution shall be paid in driv-
ing through slopes, muddy, sandy, icy
and uneven terrain.
17. Do not exceed the admissible 12
°
-
slope sheerness.
18. Do not exceed the maximum overall
weight of the rolling stock as given at the
tractor rating plate or at the rear wheel
mudguard.
19. Do not apply the differential lock
when driving through turnings.
20. To get in and out the tractor during
its move is strictly forbidden.
21. When driving with implements at-
tached to the rear hitches, the load of the
steering axle may not drop below 18 %
of the rolling stock instantaneous weight.
22. When driving the tractor with the
agricultural implements suspended at the
front three-point hitches, reduce the
tractor travel speed to 20 km/h.
23. When combining the Z 8641 - Z 11741
tractors with the machines and implements
of high hauling resistance when the engine
speed decays and the motor tends to stop,
it is forbidden to use the reduced speed
gears 1R, 2R (because of the danger of
shaft torsion).
TRANSPORT OF PERSONNEL,
OPERATION
24. Tractor may only transport as many
individuals as specified in the tractor
technical certificate.
25. Individuals not charged with the
operation of the tractor additional imple-
ments, are not allowed to stay between
the tractor and the suspended machine
(implement).
26. Before starting the tractor move,
make sure that no unauthorized individ-
ual or obstacle obstructs the tractor
move.
27. Do not exceed the specified angle of
slope gradient, which for the Z 8641,
Z 9641, Z 10641, Z 11441, Z 11741
tractors equals 12°.
TRACTOR RESCUE AND PUSHING
28. To recover the stack tractor use a tow
bar or cable suspended at the front
hook.!
Never use chains, because
their rupture represents a mor-
tal danger!
29. During the recovery, it is dangerous
to stay close to the tow cable.
30. It is forbidden to use the tractor axle
(the individual drive wheels) as a winch
for recovering the tractor.
31. The front hook is intended for towing
or recovering the tractor alone, i.e. with-
out the trailer or other suspended imple-
ments.
32. Never recover the tractor with the
reduced speed gears engaged.
33. For pushing other vehicles (trailers,
implements, and the like) never put loose
wooden beams or other bars between
the tractor and the item to be pushed.
LEAVING THE TRACTOR
34. Do Not park the tractor with the at-
tached implements in the lifted position.
