Set-up instructions
Tractor preparation
The addition of water ballasts to the tires and counterweights to the front and rear
wheels of the tractor are the most common methods used to increase traction on the ground
and provide more stability to the tractor.
The following guidelines should be carefully observed to achieve the best performance
at work.
Hitching to the tractor
Blade preparation
Check the condition of all parts, retightening nuts and bolts that, if working loose,
damage the machine components.
Check the tires calibration and keep the same pressure on both.
For LTA 5000 with 12.4 x 11 x 24 tires, water ballasts can be added (up to 110 liters).
Lubricate all grease fittings appropriately. (See lubrication instructions on pages 37
and 38).
Move the tractor closer and
attach the hoses to the quick couplers.
In order to do so, switch the engine
off, relieve drive pressure activating
the lever a few times, and make sure
the hitching points are clean.
Activate the drive to lift the
equipment so that the hitching tip (A)
is at the height of the tractor drawbar.
Place the tractor hitching pin (B)
with the latch.

ATTENTION
• The tractor must not be equipped with dual wheelsets.
• Always keep the tractor drawbar in a fixed position.
• Never remove the hoses before lowering the blade and relieving
drive pressure.
