Due to a hydraulic system is never 100% tight, a hydraulic system control should be performed
before the equipment is operated. Leakage can occur due to internal leakage in the tractor’s
valve, internal leakage in the equipment’s hydraulic cylinder etc. Check the extent of the leak
by running the equipment’s cylinder in end position and keep up the pressure for 1 min. If the
cylinder begins to “wander” to the other direction there is a leakage in the gasket. Gasket or
cylinder must be replaced.
Always work alone with the equipment that are defined as single purpose equipment. Never
overload the equipment. Respect the equipment’s danger zone.
CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING
•
Read the tractor’s manual before connecting the equipment to the tractor.
•
Check that the hydraulic hoses are not damaged and the equipment is in good condition
•
Connect the equipment and secure with locking pins.
•
Then connect the hydraulic hoses to the tractor’s hydraulic outlet.
When handling bales:
Always grip in the middle of the bale to get a safe handling. Keep the
bale low during all transport to avoid tipping risk. Never let go of the balle until it is safely on
the ground!
AFTER USE
Parking is not allowed with load above ground but is done with the equipment resting on the
ground. Rinse the equipment with water if necessary.
TRANSPORT AND STORING
Always keep the equipment or product in a dry place, preferably under cover when not in use.
Make sure that the equipment or product is stable and not likely to tip over. Never let children
play at the storage site. Keep in mind the risk of tipping!
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Always release the hydraulic pressure before disconnecting the hydraulic tubes.
Visually inspect / check the equipment and its equipment regularly. The tractor engine must
be switched off and the equipment is lowered to the ground position before service begins.
Make sure the equipment is stable and not likely to tip over during maintenance and service.
Replace damaged and worn parts immediately to reduce the risk of injury. Lubricate all mov-
ing parts and grease fittings and check hoses regularly. The hydraulic system is not adapted
to the environmental friendly oil. Use only spare parts with equivalent performance to reduce
the risk of damage and failure. All repairs and connections with electricity must be performed
by an authorized person. Check all bolts and nuts are tightened after use, maintenance and /
or service. Always test the machine before work is started.
RECYCLING
Disposal of the product, disassemble and transport to the municipality’s recycling station.
