a) Slow-moving vehicles, self-propelled machinery and towed equipment can
pose hazards when driven on public roads. Consider that it may be difficult to
see such vehicles early enough to make a proper maneuver, especially at
night.
b) Observe the regulations in effect at the place of use.
c)
The maximum transport speed of the unit is 30 km/h. DO NOT exceed the
speed limit. Never drive at a speed that does not allow for proper steering
and stopping. Some rough terrain requires a lower speed.
d) Sudden braking may cause the towed load to twist and come loose. Reduce
speed if the towed load is not equipped with brakes.
e) Use the following maximum speed ratings for the towed equipment as a
guideline:
• 30 km/h when the weight is less than or equal to that of the mower.
• 15 km/h when the weight is twice that of the mower.
f)
Do not tow a load that is more than twice the weight of the mower.
ATTENTION! Despite the safe design of the device and its protective
features, and despite the use of additional elements protecting the
operator, there is still a slight risk of accident or injury when using the

3. Use guidelines
The machine is designed to mulch plant residues generated by field work,
viticulture, orchard work, and is also used to clean other agricultural, municipal or
infrastructural surfaces.
The user is liable for any damage resulting from unintended use of the device.
3.1. Assembly & Set-up
Torque Requirements
Refer to "Torque Values Chart for Common Bolt Sizes" to determine correct
torque values when tightening hardware.
Tractor Requirements
Tractor horsepower and hitch category should be within the range noted below.
Tractors outside the horsepower range must not be used. The lower 3-Point arms
must be stabilized to prevent side-to-side movement. Most tractors have sway
blocks or adjustable chains for this purpose.
Horsepower Rating: 50-70 HP
Hitch Type: 3-Point Cat. I
Rear PTO Speed: 540 RPM
