a potentially dangerous operation.
Pay attention to perform the whole operation
by following the here below mentioned
instructions.
Picture 10 – CONNECTION TO THE TRACTOR
Picture11 – JOINTING TO THE TRACTOR
The planter can be jointed to every kind of tractor
provided that this one has an universal three-
points connection:
-
This operation is much easier thanks to the
rapid connection system. Remove from the
planter the rapid connection (1 – pict.10) and
proceed assemblying it between the lifting
bars. and blocking it with the respective spring
split pin (2 - pict. 10).
-
Go near the planter and joint it as in the
picture (pict. 11). The right position of the
tractor/planter will be determined by the
position of the cardan joint, which must stay in
a position of 5÷10 cm from the condition of
maximum closing.
-
Any horizontal moving of the lifter bars must
be avoided by blocking them parallely to the
tractor through the suitable rod.
-
Connect the third upper point (1 – pict. 11) by
inserting the plug (2 - pict. 11) and by blocking
it through the suitable split pin.
-
Take the split pins (1 - pict.12), blocking the
feet, off and lift them up. Block them again in
the other loss (2 - pict.12).
