  Check that machine fittings and couplings are in good condition 

 

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for attachment and removal of machine 
from the tractor 

  Ensure  blades  are  of  the  type  recommended  by  the  manufacturer,  are 

securely fitted and are undamaged 

  Ensure  hydraulic  pipes  are  correctly  routed  to  avoid  damage  from  chafing, 

stretching, pinching or kinking.
