TRANSPORT

KEEP  ALL  PERSONS  AWAY  FROM  THE  VICINITY  OF  THE  MACHINE  BEFORE

PIVOTING  THE  OUTER  ROTORS  INTO  TRANSPORT  POSITION.

IN TRANSPORT AND DURING WORK, THE PARKING STAND MUST ALWAYS BE IN

THE RAISED POSITION.

NEVER  LET  THE  ROTORS  ROTATE  WHEN  THE  MACHINE  IS  IN  TRANSPORT

POSITION DUE TO RISKS OF ACCIDENT.

NEVER TRANSPORT THE GA 8001 H AT MORE THAN 25 KM/H (16MPH).

To fold the machine into the transport position (photo 26), proceed as follows :

- Use handles (3) to unlock safety guards (2) and fold them to the inside (see arrows, photo 22). Guards will

automatically be locked in place once in the transport position.

- Store handles (3) in the spring clips (4) (photo 22).

- Disconnect the  tines arms (5) on each rotor and place them into the racks (6 and 7)provided (photo 23).

Secure tine arms (5) with linch pins (photo 23).

- From the tractor seat, pull on cords (8) (photo 24) and activate the tractor’s hydraulics to raise the rotors.

- Once the rotors are raised into the transport position, release the cord and 

make sure that the locks (9 and

10) are properly engaged 

(photo 25).

- Check that plug of the light and signal system is properly connected and ensure that all signal lights are

functioning correctly.

TRANSPORT OF THE MACHINE ON ROADS IS THE OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY

AND HE MUST ENSURE THAT THE MACHINE IS IN LINE WITH THE HIGHWAY CODE

OF THE COUNTRY CONCERNED.

ALWAYS  CHECK  THAT  THE  REAR  LIGHTS  AND  INDICATORS  ARE  CLEAN  AND

FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY BEFORE GOING ON THE ROAD.
