 always engage the tractor PTO at low rpm to minimize the effect of the peak torque on the
driveline and the machine.
4.4. TRACTOR-TILLER STABILITY
The weight of the machine modifies the stability of the system tractor-tiller, resulting in loss of
steering control and braking.
The front axle of the tractor should always loaded with at least 20% of the overall weight of the
system tractor-tiller.
CAUTION
Check the lifting capacity and stability of the tractor and, if necessary, applying the front ballast. To
determine the appropriate characteristics of the ballast, refer to the manual of the tractor.
5. OPERATING
Before operate the tiller, make sure you have read and understood the operating manuals of the
tiller, tractor and PTO shaft, and followed what is described in the section "Set Up".
DANGER
During operation, adjustment, maintenance, repairing or transportation of the machine, the operator
must always use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Before starting work, ensure that all machine guards are in good conditions and fully functional.
During operation, the machine can throw material from the back: prevent people and animals to
approach the operational area.
5.1. START UP
Before the start up and before each use, perform the following pre-operation inspections and service
of the implement:

check that the tiller has not damaged functional parts and has all mechanical parts in good
condition. Repair and / or replace the damaged parts;
 check that the tiller has no missing parts (pins, safety pins, plugs oil ...). Restore the missing
parts;
 check that all guards and safety devices have no damages and are properly positioned. Repair
and / or replace the damaged shieldings, restore the correct position;
 verify that the PTO driveshaft is properly installed (see section: Connection of the drive shaft);
 check that the driveshaft clutch is in good condition, and that its components are not subject to
"sticking" (see section: Maintenance / Driveline);
 check the presence of lubricant in all greasing points of the tiller (driveshaft, supports...) (see
sect. Maintenance / Driveline and Maintenance / Support rotor);
 check for oil leaks from the gearbox or the transmission side cover. Identify the reason of loss,
then repair and / or replace the damaged components;
 check the correct oil level in the gearbox and in transmission side box (see section maintenance);
