6.0 HITCHING
The spreader can be hitched to any tractor of suitable power (see
technical specifications on pag. 42).
Before hitching the spreader to the tractor, apply the handbrake
and make sure the P.T.O. is disengaged.
Wear safety gloves.
1) Fix the lower bars of the tractor lifting mechanism to the lower
couplings of the spreader (Fig.9) and then secure with safety
pins.
2) Connect the upper bar of the 3-point hitch with the suitable pin
and safety split pin.
3) To increase the machine firmness, fasten the lower bars of the
3-point hitch with the suitable tie-rods.
4) Connect the P.T.O. shaft, making sure the safety lock has gone
off and read the attatched P.T.O. shaft user’s guide carefully.
5) Lift the spreader from the ground using the tractor lifting bars.
Unscrew the handwheels (A) and take away the two stands (B)
(Fig10).
When the P.T.O. shaft is at its maximum extention, the two inner
tubes have to overlap at least 15-20 cm. When the P.T.O. shaft
is completly closed, there must be a gap of at least 4-5 cm to
avoid collisions with the outer side (Fig.11).
The working angle of the P.T.O. has to be the smallest possible;
preferably it should not exceed 10° (Fig.11), so as to make the
P.T.O. shaft and the machine last longer.
6) Adjust the 3-point lifting mechanism of the tractor so that the
working position of the spreader is horizontal (70-80 cm above
the ground) see Fig.12.
7) Connect the hoses of the double-acting hydraulic couplings of
the tractor (Fig.13). In this way the shutters can be easily
controlled from the driver’s seat.
Another aspect that the flow regulation on the hydraulic cylinder
offers is that one can vary the lever opening and closing speed.
If one turns the lever clockwise it will move slower, by turning
the lever anti-clockwise it will move faster.
Before connecting the hydraulic hoses or carrying out any
maintenance work on the hydraulic system, lower the spreader
to the ground, turn the engine off and drop the pressure.
