If all the above actions have been per-
formed and the technical condition of the
machine does not raise any objections,
connect the machine to the tractor (see
AGGREGATING WITH THE TRACTOR).
Start the tractor, check the individual
systems and carry out a test run of the ma-
chine at a standstill without load. It is rec-
ommended that the inspection be carried
out by two persons, one of whom should
be permanently present in the tractor op-
erator's cabin. The test run should be per-
formed in the sequence shown below.
• Connect the machine to the agricul-
tural tractor.
• Connect the PTO shaft and secure it
properly.
• Connect the hydraulic and electrical
cables.
• Move the machine to the working
position.
• Check the correct operation of the
lighting system.
• Start the agricultural tractor.
• Check the correct operation of the
mower's hydraulic systems.
Activate the individual hydraulic
cylinders. Check the correct
connection of the wires.
• At low revolutions, start the PTO drive
in the tractor (starting the cutting
units gear drive) and leave it for a few
minutes.
Check whether there are no
knocks or noises from the
grinding of metal elements
from the drive system and the
cutting unit gearbox. Check
that the discs on the cutter bar
rotate smoothly and without any
jamming, and that there are no
excessive vibrations in the cutter
bar. Check that the rotation of
DANGER
Careless and improper use and operation of the
machine, as well as non-compliance with the recom-
mendations contained in the operating manual, pose
a threat to health and life.
It is forbidden to use the machine by unauthorized
persons, children, persons under the influence of al-
cohol or other drugs.
Non-adherence to the principles of safe use may en-
danger the health of the operator and others.
CAUTION
The overlap of the shaft tubular profiles must be at
least 1/2 of the length under normal operating condi-
tions and at least 1/3 of the length under all operating
conditions.
When adjusting the PTO shaft, follow the manufac-
turer's operating instructions for the PTO shaft.
When turning or driving over rough terrain, the shaft
may be damaged and/or destroyed as it pushes or
disengages due to improper fit.
ADVICE
Adjustment of the PTO shaft applies only to a specif-
ic type of tractor. If the machine is aggregated with
another tractor, it may be necessary to repeat the
adjustment of the shaft to this tractor.
