- Dress appropriately for operating the machine.
Keep long hair tied up and do not wear loose-
fitting clothing. Remove rings, chains, and any
other objects which can become stuck in the
movingpartsormechanisms.
- Wear personal protective equipment - PPE
while operating the machine. Exposure to noise
for prolonged period can cause hearing damage
orloss.Wearearplugsandsafetyglasses.
- Never try to clean or remove remnants of
products while the machine is turned on. This
type of procedure can only be done while the
power take-off is disconnected, the key removed
from the ignition, and the machine is completely
motionless.
- Never try to open the machine while it is
operating.
- Keep the safety labels in good condition and
legible.Replacethemwhenevernecessary.
- Keep the shields and protections in the proper
places and do not operate the machine without
them.
- It is prohibited for people to stand on any part of
the machine while operating. Whenever it is
necessary to get on the machine for any
adjustment or repair, disconnect the power take-
offfromthe tractorandwait untilthecomponents/
partsarecompletelymotionless.
- Moving parts, due to inertia, continue moving
even after the machine is turned off. Wait for a
few moments before approaching the machine,
as moving springs are almost unnoticeable and
touchingthemcancauseanaccident.
- Before touching any part, disconnect the
power take-off, look and listen to check for any
evidenceofmotion.Onlytouch a part when you
aresureitisstopped.Alwayspayattention!
- Completely lower the machine before
performing maintenance, lubrication, or
adjustments.
- If it is necessary to work on the machine when
it is raised by the hydraulic system, it must be
raised safely. Hydraulic mechanisms can lower
without any reason or from leakage in the
system,andcauseanaccident.
- Do not place the machine on cement blocks,
hollowbricks,orothersupportswhichcancrush

- Always check the terrain before starting your
work. Mark any dangerous places or obstacles
which may impose a hazard to operating the
machine.

- Be especially careful when operating on sloped
terrain. If you notice any imbalanced signs,
reduce acceleration. Keep the tractor always

- Be especially careful when coupling and
uncoupling the machine from the tractor. Pay
attention and check if the coupling pins are well
latched. Use cotter pins so that the pins do not

- When driving the tractor with the machine on
public roadways, obey the current valid
legislations regarding the maximum height of
the load, especially when going under

APPLICATION
COUPLING TO THE TRACTOR
The HAYNOG-300 was designed for swathing
or spreading diverse products used for
producing hay etc., especially for diverse types
ofgrasses.
The lower connecting pins are reversible,
which makes them enabled for coupling the
HAYNOG-300tocategoryIorIItractors:
- Cat. I: The smaller diameter pin is placed on
theoutside.
-Cat.II:Thelargerdiameterpinisplacedonthe
outside.
Seethefiguresbelow:
NOTE: If you wish to change the category, just
remove the pinsAand invert the position of the
connectors(fig.5).
To facilitate the coupling process and safer,
selectaflatlocation forcouplingthemachineto
thetractor.
Do not stay between the tractor and the
machine while performing the coupling
operation; always handle the connector
partsfromthethirdpointoutsidethedanger
zone (the space between the machine and
the tractor). The tractor or machine may
accidentally move and provoke an
accident.

Verify the lower arms of the tractor and make
sure they are the same height as the machine
beforecouplingit.
Carefullyapproachthetractortothemachine:
1-Firstconnecttheleftarm.
2-Thenconnecttherightarm.
3- Finally, connect the upper arm. (the third
connectingpoint).
Use the hole which is most appropriate to the
lengthoftheconnectingarm.
Lack the arms using the pins and respective
lockingpins. Depending on the tractor used, it may be
necessary to cut the driveshaft. This is due to
the variation in distance between the power
take-off and the machine actuation axle, as
therearedifferencesamongtractormodels.
Ifnecessary,proceedasfollows:
1- Disassemble the two parts of the driveshaft
(maleandfemale).
2- Couple the side with the solid bar (male) to
themachineandthefemalepartinthetractor.
3- Place the two parts (male and female)
parallel to each other (fig.21). The ends which

PLACINGTHEDRIVESHAFT
Never use the driveshaft without the safety
shielding.
Contact with the moving driveshaft can
causeaseriousaccident.

- The male and female cut pieces must be the
samelength.
- Use a file to do the final finishing on the cut
pieces.Lubricatewithathinlayerofgrease.
Recommendations:
- Before coupling the driveshaft, clean and
lubricate the power take-off axles and the
actuatingpartsofthemachine.
-Afterinstallingthedriveshaft,fastenthesafety
chains,andleavesomeplayforarticulation.
- Verify the length of the driveshaft, whenever
usingadifferentmodeloftractor.
- Disconnect the power take-off when
maneuveringthecoupledmachine.
- It is the exclusive responsibility of the
authorized Nogueira reseller to perform the
preparation on the driveshaft and the first
operationofthemachine.
After assembling the driveshaft, keep the ends
aligned(thefollowingfig.).
Misalignment of the ends will cause vibration in
the bracket, and thereby decrease the useful
lifetimeofthedriveshaft.
When maneuvering the coupled machine,
disconnect the power take-off in order to avoid
damagingthedriveshaft.

GENERALINSTRUCTIONS
Lower the hydraulic system of the tractor to a floating position, so that the tractor can adjust to the
ground. It is essential to achieve good operation to keep the power take-offrotation between 350 and
540rpm,thusthisreducewearandwastinghay.
Avoidsuddenturntowardstherighttoavoiddamagingthedriveshaft.
Each adjustment, including forward speeds and the power take-off, must be appropriate for the local
circumstances.
