geometrical shape, dressing, sealing).

 Blockages or seed bridging (i.e. caused by

foreign bodies, non-smooth seeds, sticky

dressing).

 Worn wearing parts (e.g. metering unit).



 Incorrect drive motor speeds and driving

speeds.

 Incorrect setting of the unit (incorrect connec-

tion, non-observance of setting tables).

Therefore, it is crucial to always check your

machine before and during operation for correct

such as detachable protective devices, must be

correctly in place and reliably functioning before

the machine is put into operation.

 Check nuts and bolts, especially the ones on

wheels and cultivation tools regularly for tight

 In case of malfunctions immediately stop and

secure the machine.

 Check tire pressure regularly.

Caution with negative tongue load

With an empty hopper and under cer-

tain operating conditions the machine

may have a negative tongue load.

The rear axle of the tractor is unloaded. This has

characteristics.

Care must also be taken when unhitching.

Always fold the wings up or rest the wings

on the ground.

-

served when travelling on public roads, paths

and areas.

Observe permissible transport widths and

heights.

Assemble lighting, warning and protective equip-

ment and check the function.

Do not exceed the permissible axle loads, tire

carrying capacities and total weights, in order

-

bilities.

The front axle must be loaded with at least 20

% of the tractor weight.

ment. It is important to take into account the

large overhang and the centrifugal mass of the

implement, particularly when cornering.

For road transport the machine has to be con-

verted to transport position.

The machine must be folded up and secured.

Pay special attention to the transporta-

tion height when passing under bridges

and low suspended power lines.

Clean soil from the folding areas before folding

up. Otherwise there could be damage to the

Accident prevention

In addition to the operating instructions, it is

important to observe the accident prevention

-

sociations!

Hitching / Un-hitching

There is risk of injury to persons when hitching/

 Secure the machine against rolling away.

 Take special care when reversing the tractor.

Never stand between tractor and machine.



surface. Before unhitching the machine, lower

it to the ground.

On the hydraulic system

 Do not connect hydraulic hoses to the tractor,

before both hydraulic systems on machine

and tractor are de-pressurized.

 The hydraulic system is under high pressure.

Check all lines, hoses and screwed con-

nections regularly for leaks and any visible

external damage!

 Only use appropriate aids when checking for

leaks. Repair any damage immediately! Oil

 In the case of injury, contact a doctor imme-

diately!

The control unit on the tractor must be

secured or locked when not in use or

when the machine is in transport posi-

tion, in order to prevent accidents

caused by unintended hydraulic move-

ments or movements caused by per-

sons other than the operator (children,

passengers).
