1.0 INTRODUCTION
This booklet describes the regulations for use, maintenance for
the disc harrow. This booklet is an integrating part of the product,
and must be kept in a safe place for consultation during the whole
life-span of the machine.
The equipment described in these instructions for use complies
with the current safety provisions and the current state of the art
and technology. However, should the equipment be used in an
improper manner, the risk of injury occurring cannot be totally
excluded. For this reason, the following pages contain warning
messages, marked with the following symbol:
1.1DESCRIPTION OF THE EQUIPMENT
This particular machine is ideal for not-tilled ground, stubbly ground
and for the mechanical control of weeds.
The machine is used after ploughing, especially in clayey ground,
in order to level out the depth of the ground and bring the largest
clods up to the surface. The rening and levelling action is carried
out by units with disc harrows and rear compacting roller. The
cultivators may be used for ploughing purposes, in order to break
up the land leaving residues and organic substances in the layers
nearer the surface, thereby promoting soil fertility.
Usually, the machine is immediately ready for use. We do,
however, recommend checking that the screws, bolts and hydraulic
connections are well-tightened before use and after approx.15
hours of operation. The highest admissible speed of the machine
is 25 km/h. Such speed should, however, be greatly reduced when
the ground is uneven. Excessive speed causes high dynamic
stress which reduces the life-span of the machine. If the machinery
is being used on public roads or streets, the cultivator must be
equipped in conformity with the provisions laid down by the Highway
Code in force. In particular, it should be equipped with suitable
lighting and signposting.
ATTENTION
The equipment has been designed exclusively for the
cultivation of stubbly ground or for the preparation of
seedbeds on minimum tilled soil. Any other use different from
that described in these instructions could cause damage to
the machine and represent a serious hazard for the user.
Regular operation depends on the correct use and adequate
maintenance of the equipment. It is advisable therefore to
observe scrupulously what is described in order to prevent any
inconveniences that could impair the proper operation and duration.
Additionally, all the information required to ensure the best use
of the machine is provided, together with instructions and useful
advice for its correct maintenance. It is just as important to keep to
what is described in this booklet since the Manufacturer declines
all responsibility due to negligence and non-observance of
these rules.
At any rate the Manufacturer is available to assure immediate and
accurate technical assistance and all that may be necessary for
the improved operation and better performance of the equipment.
1.2 GUARANTEE
- On delivery, check that the equipment has not been damaged
during transport and that the accessories are integral and
complete.
- Possible claims must be presented in writing within eight
days of receipt.
- The purchaser will enforce his rights on the guarantee only
when he has respected the conditions concerning the benet
of the guarantee, set out in the supply contract.
- The guarantee is valid for 1 year, against all defects of material,
from the date of delivery of the equipment.
- The guarantee does not include working and shipping costs
(the material is shipped at the consignee’s own risk).
- Obviously, all damage to persons or things are excluded from
the guarantee.
- The guarantee is limited to the repair or replacement of
the defective piece, according to the instructions of the
Manufacturer.
Dealers or users may not claim any indemnity from the Manufacturer
for any damage they may suffer (costs for labor, transport, defective
workmanship, direct or indirect accidents, loss of earnings on the
harvest, etc.).
1.2.1 EXPIRY OF GUARANTEE
Besides what has already been set out in the supply contract,
the guarantee expires:
- If the limits set out in the technical data table are overshot.
- If the instructions set out in this booklet have not been carefully
followed.
- If the equipment is used badly, defective maintenance or other
errors by the client
- If modifications have been carried out without written
authorization of the manufacturer and if non original spare
parts have been used.

22) The machine is a work tool only; do not therefore, under any
circumstances, use it transport other persons or walk alongside
it while it is in operation.
23) Warning: some parts of the equipment, such as the hinges,
hydraulic cylinders, rollers and trolley have the capacity to cause
serious injury. Always keep at a safe distance.
24) Always proceed with caution when loosening the locking devices.
Tractor hitch
Before hitching the equipment to the tractor, the operator should
always pull the parking brake and put the tractor in neutral.
If the tractor has a hydraulic hitching system and if the operation is
being performed by two operators, the connection of the third point
of the equipment could generate a potential risk.
The hitching operation must always be carried out by one operator
only, following the procedure described below:
-place the tractor in neutral and block all possible movement by
pulling the hand brake;
- from the tractor cab, activate the control that completely releases
the cylinder rod;
- exit from the tractor cab and, standing on the ground, rest the cylinder
rod on the pin of the equipment’s third hooking point;
-from the tractor cab, activate the control so that the hydraulic actuator
withdraws slowly until the hook reaches the correct position on the
pin of the equipment’s third hooking point;
- exit from the cab and lock the hook with the lever provided.
Refer to the tractor’s instructions for the use of the hydraulic controls.
1) Hook the equipment to a suitable, sufciently-powered tractor by
means of the appropriate device (lifter), in conformity with applicable
standards.
2) The class of the equipment attachment pins must be the same as
that of the lifter attachment.
3) Take care when working within the range of the lifting arms as this
is a very dangerous area.
4) Be very careful when hooking and unhooking the equipment.
5) It is absolutely forbidden to stand between the tractor and linkage
for manoeuvring the lifting controls from the outside (Fig. 5).
6) Do not, under any circumstances, stand between the tractor and
the equipment while the engine is running (Fig. 5).
You may only stand in this position after pulling the tractor’s
handbrakes and after placing suitable chocks under the wheels.
7) The application of an additional piece of equipment to the tractor
would change the distribution of weight on the axles. We therefore
recommend the addition of special ballasts to the front of the tractor
in order to rebalance the weight on the axles. Check that tractor
performance is compatible with the weight that the equipment
transfers into the three-point hook-up. In case of doubt, consult the
tractor manufacturer.
8) Observe: maximum admissible weight on the axle, total mobile
weight, regulations governing transportation and the Highway Code.
2.0 SAFETY REGULATIONS AND
ACCIDENT PREVENTION
