Behind the sowing machine, hook the AIR CART to the towing
device using the break pins (2, Fig. 10), connect the seed
transport pipes (3), the electrical system (4) and the hydraulic
system (5).
Position the control unit (Fig. 11) inside the tractor cab, and make
the following connections:
A) to the sowing machine electrical system;
B) to the 7-pole auxiliary coupling (transport lights);
C) to the 12V battery.
Check the polarity!!!
ATTENTION: Always follow the indications recommended
by the Manufacturer for the transport of the seeder. When
transporting on public roads, use the proper safety pins and
release splitpins to block the folding side frames in place.
4.2.2 UNHOOKING THE SEED DRILL TOWED BY THE
TRACTOR
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) Lower the supporting base elements (B, Fig. 9).
2) Slowly lower the seed drill until it rests completely on the
ground.
3) Disconnect the hydraulic pipes from the tractor distributor and
protect the snap-on couplings with the special caps.
4) Unhook the fi rst and second point (Fig. 6).
4.3 ADJUSTING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
1) At the moment of connecting the hydraulic tubes to the
hydraulic system of the tractor, make sure that the hydrau-
lic systems of the operating machine and the tractor are
not under pressure.
2) For the operative hydraulic connections between tractor
and operating machine, the sockets and plugs should be
marked with colours to distinguish them, to avoid them
being used wrongly. There would be a danger of accident
if the connections were to be swapped round.
3) The hydraulic system is under high pressure; because
of the accident risk, when searching for leakage points
special auxiliary instruments should be used.
4) Not to never carry out the search losses with the fi ngers
or the hands. The liquids that exit from the holes can be
nearly not visible.
5) During transport by road the hydraulic connections betwe-
en tractor and operating machine should be disconnected
and secured to the support provided.
6) Do not use vegetable oils under any circumstance. These
could cause a risk of damage to the cylinder gaskets.
7) The operating pressures of the hydraulic system should
be between 100 bars and 180 bars.
8) Never exceed the indicated hydraulic system pressure
levels.
9) Check that the quick hook-ups are coupled correctly; parts
of the system could get damaged if they are not.
10) Oil escaping at high pressure can cause skin injury with
the risk of serious wounds and infection. Call a doctor
immediately if such an incident occurs. If the oil with sur-
gical means is not removed quickly, can take place serious
allergies and/or infections. Therefore, the installation of
hydraulic components in the tractor driver’s cab is strictly
forbidden. All the components of the system should be
positioned carefully to avoid parts being damage during
use of the equipment.
11) In case of participation on the hydraulic system, to un-
load the hydraulic pressure carrying all the hydraulic
commandos in all the positions some times after to have
extinguished the motor.
WARNING
Make sure that the result of this adjustment does not cause
the rising or descent speed to damage the structure itself.
