When using the ground speed PTO, note that the
speed is independent of the travelling speed and
the direction changes when reversing!
10. Before engaging the PTO, make sure that no-one
is in the danger area of the implement!
11. Never engage the PTO while the engine is
stopped!
12. No-one should be standing in the range of the
turning PTO or universal drive shafts when working
with the PTO shaft!
13. Always switch off the PTO shaft when extreme
angles occur and it is not required!
14. Danger! Due to their inertia, working components
continue to rotate for some time even after the PTO
has been disengaged! Keep clear of the implement
during this time. Be sure the implement has come
to a complete stop before starting any work on it.
15. Disengage the PTO, stop the engine and remove
the key from the ignition before cleaning, lubrica-
ting or making any adjustments to the implement
or the PTO!
16. After detaching the universal drive shaft, always
place it on its support!
17. After detaching the universal drive shaft, place the
protective cover over the PTO stub!
18. Immediately repair any damage before resuming
operation with the implement!
Hydraulics
1.
The hydraulic system is pressurised!
2.
When connecting hydraulic cylinders and motors,
make sure the hydraulic hoses are connected
according to specifications!
3.
When connecting hydraulic hoses to the tractor
hydraulics, make sure that all hydraulic pressure
has been released from both the tractor and the
implement!
4.
In case of hydraulic connections between tractor
and implement, the coupling sleeves and plugs
should be marked to ensure a proper connection!
If the connections are switched, the function is
reversed (e.g. raising/lowering) – danger of
accidents!
5.
Check the hydraulic hoses at regular intervals and
replace them if they are damaged or worn. The
new hoses must satisfy the technical requirements
of the implement manufacturer!
6.
To avoid injury, use suitable tools and aids when
tracing leaks!
7.
Escaping pressurised fluid (hydraulic oil) can
penetrate the skin and cause serious injury! In
case of injury, immediately consult a doctor! Dan-
ger of infection!
8.
Before working on the hydraulics, lower the
implement, relieve the hydraulic pressure from the
system and stop the tractor engine!
Tyres
1.
When working on the tyres, the implement must be
safely lowered and secured against rolling (wheel
chocks).
2.
Installation of tyres and wheels requires special
knowledge and proper installation tools!
3.
Repairs on tyres and wheels must be carried out by
specially trained personnel using proper installation
tools!
4.
Check the air pressure at regular intervals! Inflate
the tyres to the recommended tyre pressures!
Brakes
1.
Check that the brakes function before each
journey!
2.
The brake systems must be inspected regularly!
For details see the adjustments and service
chapter.
3.
Adjustment and repair work on the brake system
must only be carried out by specialist workshops or
recognised brake services! Use only prescribed
brake fluid and change as specified!
