Safety
Only connect the hydraulics when the system is depressurised
You should only connect the hydraulic hoses to the tractor's hydraulics
when the hydr aulic system on both the tr actor and the machin e is
depressurised.
There is a risk that the machine will move accidentally.
Unintentional movement of the machine may result in serious injuries.
The hydraulic system should be checked regularly
All hoses and fittings should be checked regularly for visible damage.
Hydraulic hoses also wear without any visible damage.
Defective hydraulic hoses can cause injury or fire.
Colour marking of the hydraulic connections
The hydraulic connections between the tractor and the machine must
be colour marked.
By co lour mar king the hydr aulic con nections yo u avoid wrong
operation of the machine.
Incorrect o peration or un intentional m ovement of th e m achine ma y
result in serious injuries.
Load capacity
Compliance with total weight, axle pressure, carrying capacity of
the tyres, and minimum weight
Neither the tractor's total weight, axle pressure or the carrying capacity
of the tyres may be exceeded with front mounted and rear mounted
machines.
To ensure the manoeuvrability of the tractor, the load on the front axle
must be at least 20% of the tractor's weight.
Transgression can result in uncontrolled driving and accidents.
Be careful when working around the PTO shaft
When wor king on the PTO shaft, th e tr actor PTO outlet must be
disconnected, the tractor mu st be sto pped an d the ign ition key
removed.
This prevents the PTO shaft from suddenly starting to rotate.
If the tractor and the PTO shaft have not been connected following the
instructions, serious accidents causing damage to limbs can occur.
Weight/power ratio between machine and tractor
The machine may on ly be con nected to a tractor of th e correct size
and performance.
The tr actor's size a nd P.T.O o utlet must cor respond to th e p ower
consumption of the machine and its weight.
Wrong weight/power ratio can result in damage to both machine and
tractor.
