4.0 INSTALLATION AND USE
4.1 HANDLING
If the machine is handled, it must be lifted by hooking onto the
appropriate holes with a suitable winch or crane of suf
fi cient ca-
pacity. Because of the danger involved, this operation should be
carried out by trained and responsible personnel. The mass of
the machine is on the Identi
fi cation Plate (Fig. 1). Stretch the rope
to keep the machine level. The hook points can be detected by
fi nding the «hook» symbol (13, Fig. 2).
4.2 ATTACHMENT TO THE TRACTOR
To obtain the best performance from the equipment, carefully follow
what is set out below.
ATTENTION
The following maintenance, adjustment, and work preparation
operations must be performed with the tractor off and locked
fi rmly in position with the key removed from the dashboard
and the seeder positioned on the ground.
Use drawbar coupling plugs that comply with the tractor category
(III or IV, Fig. 5).
4.2.1 HOOKING A TOWED SEED DRILL
DANGER
The attachment to the tractor is a very dangerous phase.
Be very careful in following the instructions for the whole
operation.
The correct positioning of the tractor/seeder is determined by
placing the unit on a horizontal surface.
1) Hook the lifter bars on the preset pins (1, fi g. 6). Block with the
snap split pins.
2) Block the movement of the parallels of the tractor on the ho-
rizontal plane using the stabilizers provided, so eliminating
the side swaying of the equipment (2, Fig. 7). Check that the
tractor hoisting arms are positioned at the same height from
the ground.
3) Connect the trolley’s hydraulic driven tubes properly, for road
transport, to the tractor’s distributors by following the instruc-
tions posted on each tube (Fig. 8).
4) Raise the feet (A, Fig. 9).
5) Check the length of the grain tubes (with the machine comple-
tely hoisted) to avoid bendings and consequently breaking of
the tube, as well as the formation of loops.
