General Safety Informaon (connued)
Machinery Pre-Use Checks
On receipt of your new Winton machine and again within the rst 4 hours of use, or the ‘shake
in’ period as we like to call it, we always recommend checking over the machine.
• Check all bolts, nuts and screws are ght on the unit.
• Tighten/check any bolts and nuts securing blades.
• If your machine has belts check the tension and adjust if required.
• Apply grease to grease points if necessary.
• Remove support/storage stands before operang machinery.
• Check oil levels and top up if needed.
Tractor Pre-Use Checks
Check that the machine is properly aached to the tractor. Ensure that secure pins are used on
the linkage mounng pins.
Be sure to add extra weights to the front of the tractor or add wheel weights if required.
Install and secure all safety guards, doors and covers before starng.
Bystanders should leave the immediate area before connecng the drive from the tractor.
Running/Operang Checks
• Always keep the PTO output from the tractor at 540 RPM when running machinery.
• Never use machinery at excessive speeds.

2. INSTALLATION & SET UP
Safety: Ensure tractor and machine is stopped & keys out of ignion before set-up/maintenance.
Safety: Before aaching/detaching machinery ensure the hydraulic li system is in a neutral posion.
You will need:
Your tractor with suitable hydraulics outlets & towing draw bar to aach the trailer’s pin hitch.
Aaching The Trailer
Start by nding a at piece of ground. Ensure the handbrake (1) is engaged on the trailer. The hand
brake is located near the towing frame and can be engaged by pressing the buon on the top and
ensuring the handle is upright. Similarly to dis-engage the handbrake the buon should be pressed and
the moving the handle in to a horizontal posion.
Align the tractor’s rear drawbar to the pin hitch (2) on the trailer. Then raise or lower the trailer hitch
using the stand (3). The handle can be used to wind the trailer up so the trailer and tractor hitching
points are aligned. Then insert the tractor pin through the drawbar and trailer hitch to secure in place.
Pre-Use Checklist
• Before using the machinery, always check and adjust the ghtness of all bolts, nuts and
screws. Check lubricaon/grease points and ensure sucient hydraulic oil is in the tractor
reservoir. Also check all protecve guards are in place.

3. TRAILER USAGE
Proper Usage
This trailer is designed for agricultural use with a compact tractor. It is not intended or specied for
road use. Trailer tyres are not designed for road speeds or use.
Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph) when towing the trailer and always reduce speed on rough, uneven
and slippery surfaces. Avoid making any sudden stops when towing.
Make sure the controls are operated only when seated in the tractor’s seat. Always ensure the
operang area is clear of bystanders and obstrucons when using the trailer. Ensure persons do not
stand, walk or work underneath the trailer when raised.
Proper Loading
The trailer is designed to bear a maximum of 1.5tn of weight, please do not overload. Be mindful of the
type of load on the trailer. Loose loads should be secured. All loads, especially liquid loads, should be
moved slowly with smooth movements when cornering, accelerang or braking.
Never carry people in the trailer or on any poron of the trailer or trailer aachments.
Proper Use On Hills & Cornering
When working on slopes always set brakes on the tractor and trailer. Shi down before starng up or
down a hill with a heavy load.
Turn into corners or ascend/descend any slopes or hills at a low speed. Ensure that steering is made at
a gradual angle rather than sharp turns to prevent the load from pping.
Always make sure that at least 20% of the tractor's weight is on the tractor’s front wheels for safe
operaon and manoeuvrability.
Do not use on steep slopes, especially when loaded.

V1 7Winton WTL15
4. HYDRAULICS & SAFETY
Safety: Ensure tractor and machine is stopped & keys out of ignion before set-up/maintenance.
Fing Hydraulics
Ensure your tractor has sucient hydraulic oil in the reservoir before aaching hydraulics pipes.
Consult your tractor manual for more informaon on the hydraulic tank and checking oil levels. Your
manual will also advise on the grade of hydraulic oil to use. Type 32 hydraulic oil is a well known grade
for compact tractors.
There is one hydraulic ng (1) which needs to be coupled, this is 1/2 Inch BSP (male) which is
common for most compact tractors. Converters are also widely available if your tractor does not suit
this size.
First, pull the collar back on the tractor female hydraulic ng. Then push the male trailer ng in to
the socket and release the collar to secure in to place.
Hydraulic Safety
Always make sure the hydraulic system and all components are kept in good condion and clean.
Before applying any hydraulic pressure to the system, make sure all components are ght and that
lines, hoses and couplings are not damaged. Replace any worn, cut, aened or crimped hoses and
lines straight away.
Do not aempt any makeshi repairs to the hydraulic lines, ngs or hoses by using tapes or clamps.
The hydraulic system operates under high pressure. Such repair may cause hazardous and unsafe
condions.
Always wear proper hand and eye protecon when working with high pressure hydraulics. Use a piece
of wood or cardboard as a backstop instead of hands to isolate and idenfy any leaks.
If injured by a concentrated high pressure stream of hydraulic uid, seek medical aenon
immediately. Serious infecon or toxic reacon can develop from hydraulic uid on the skin.

5. REMOVING PANELS
Opening & Removing Panels
The sides and rear panels can be opened and folded down for easy loading and unloading. Open the
rear tail gate when using the pping funcon for easy ooading.
The securing latches (1) need to be pulled up and twisted horizontally to allow the panel to release.
There are 4 latches on the side panels and 2 on the rear panel.
To remove the panels completely the panels should be folded down as above then slid to the side to
release from the hinge brackets. This will need an extra pair of hands, especially on the side panels due
to the weight.

V1 9Winton WTL15
6. SERVICING & MAINTENANCE
Lubricaon & Maintenance
Lower the trailer to the ground and relieve pressure in trailer hydraulic lines prior to performing any
service or maintenance operaons on the tractor or trailer. When checking hydraulic system oil level,
the tractor should be on the ground and the trailer emped & fully retracted (all cylinders in retracted
posion).
Check the tractor hydraulic system as outlined in the tractor operator’s manual.
Inspect hydraulic hoses, connecons, control valve and cylinders for evidence of leakage regularly.
Grease all trailer pivot points daily (10 hours).
Other Maintenance
Oils: Ensure oil levels are checked and topped up when needed.
Cleaning: Ensure the machine is cleaned of mud and grass. Remove debris is from any moving parts.
Paintwork: Re-coat any damaged paintwork to prevent corrosion.
Wheels: Check the condion of all wheels and replace if any are broken or damaged.
Storage: Store the machine in a dry, level area with the hand brake applied. Chock the wheels and
support the frame if necessary.
The periods recommended are based on normal operang condions. Severe or unusual condions
may require more frequent maintenance.
Grease Type Mul-purpose lithium based grease
Pivot Points Grease Frequency Check every 4-8 hours (top up if required)
Hydraulic Oil Type/Level Check daily/10hrs (see tractor manual)
Hydraulic Oil Filter See tractor manual for lter change
Trailer Tyre Pressure Approx. 20-30psi (dependent on condion)
