OUPLING
THE
IMPLEMENT
WARNING
Risk of accident while coupling the
implement to the tractor.
• During coupling, no person may stand
between the tractor and the implement;
also do not step between the tractor
and the implement while operating the
external hydraulics control.
• Take note of all crushing and shearing
points on all of the implement’s moving
parts.
• Before coupling and uncoupling the
hydraulic plug couplings, depressurize
the hydraulic system.
Follow the tractor’s operating
instructions and safety instructions.
• Secure the implement to prevent it
rolling away.

•
The bottom link (

) must slope downwards
slightly towards the implement.
•
Attach the top link (
2
) so that it slopes upwards
towards the working implement.
x < Y
•
The incline can be changed by inserting the top
link stock in position A or B.
•
Insert the top link into the elongated hole.
%HQH¿WV
- Quicker soil penetration
- Safer bottom guidance
- Load reduction on the plough hydraulics
NOTE
Insert the top link into the hole if the soil is
heavy.
