Transport on Road
29) When driving on public roads, be sure to follow the highway
code of the country involved.
30) Any transport accessories must be provided with suitable
signs and guards.
31) It is very important to remember that road holding capacity as
well as direction and braking capacity can be influenced,
sometimes considerably, by equipment being either carried
or towed.
32) When taking a curve, calculate that the centrifugal force and
the centre of gravity will shift depend-ing on whether
equipment is being carried or not.
33) For transport, adjust and fasten the lateral lifting arm chains
of the tractor; check that the seed and fertilizer hopper covers
are closed properly; lock the hy-draulic lifting control lever.
34) All road transport must only be carried out with the tanks and
hoppers empty and at max speed of 25 km/h. For the transport
on the road it must be assured the cover with the appropriate
one pulling of coupling (A, Fig. 6). Periodically, it is necessary
to verify the degree of deterioration of pulling and to the
occurrence to replace it.
35) For displacements beyond the work area, the equipment
must be placed in the transportation position. This also
involves the necessity of disconnecting any hydraulic
connection to the tractor.
36) Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports and
tables for signaling of dimensions.
37) When the dimensions of carried or partially-carried equipment
conceal the tractor's signalling and lighting devices, these
must also be installed on the equip-ment itself, in conformity
with regulations of the highway code of the country involved.
When in operation make sure that the lighting system is in
perfect work-ing order. The transport on the road must be
done with light (B, Fig. 6) turned off. The orientation of the
light (C, Fig. 6) must be done in conformity with regulations
of the highway code of the country involved.
It is also important to remember that the correct sig-nalling
sequence of the head-lights includes (Fig. 7):
D - Direction indicator
E - Red position light
F - Stop light.
Maintenance in safety
During work and maintenance operations, use suitable perso-
nal protection gear:
Overalls
Gloves
38) Do not proceed with maintenance and cleaning if the power
take-off has not been disconnected first, the engine power
off, the hand brake pulled and the tractor blocked with a
wooden block or stone of the right size under the wheels.
39) Periodically check that the bolts and nuts are tight, and if
necessary tighten them again. For this it would be advisable
to use a torque wrench, respecting the values of 53 Nm for
M10 bolts, resistance class 8.8, and 150 Nm for M14 bolts
resistance class 8.8 (tab.1)
40) During assembling, maintenance, cleaning, fitting, etc., with
the seeding machine raised, place adequate supports under
the equipment as a precaution.
41) The spare parts must correspond to the manufacturer's spe-
cifica-tions. Use only original spares.
