Connecting to the tractor
47
Connecting the machine
The space between the spreader and the tractor is limited as far as
possible in order to keep the centre of gravity as closely to the tractor
as possible. This promotes stability and the road behaviour of the
tractor. As a result the coupling shaft, hydraulic hoses and electric
plugs must be connected first, followed by the power lift.
Preparation
Move the tractor to the front of the spreader so that the catch hooks
of the power lift are around 200 mm from the spreader (the
maximum distance depends on the reach of the coupling shaft; the
halves must always overlap each other).
Take the pressure off the hydraulic system of the tractor.
Switch the tractor off, remove the key from the ignition and engage
the parking brake of the tractor.
Put the lower links of the tractor level with the machine linkage
pins.
Compensate for any height difference with the lift rod adjustment
of the power lift.
Adjust the stabiliser chains to make lateral movement of the lower
links impossible.
Mount the appropriate ball bearings to the linkage pins and the top.
Secure the linkage pins and top again.
Front power lift
Only connect the machine to the front power lift if:
•
it has sufficient lifting power,
•
it falls within the same fixing category as the machine,
•
the minimum and maximum load of the front and rear weight would
not be exceeded,
•
the tractor has a closed cabin and proper air filters (active carbon
filters).
