General Safety Instructions
2.16.4 Universal joint shaft operation
• You must install or remove the PTO shaft only after you have
done all of the following:
ο Switched off the universal joint shaft
ο Switched off the tractor engine
ο Applied the parking brake
ο The ignition key has been removed
• Before switching on the universal joint shaft, check that the se-
lected universal joint shaft speed of the tractor matches the per-
mitted drive speed of the machine.
•
Instruct everyone to leave the danger area of the machine before
switching on the universal joint shaft.
• Never switch on the universal joint shaft when the tractor engine
is not running.
• WARNING After the universal joint shaft is switched off, there is
a risk of injury from the continued rotation of freewheeling ma-
chine parts.
Stay clear of the machine during this time. You must only start
work on the machine once all machine parts are at a complete
standstill.
2.16.5 Attached machines
• Comply with the approved combination options for the attach-
ment equipment on the tractor and the machine drawbar.
Only couple approved combinations of vehicles (tractor and
attached machine).
• In the case of single axle machines, observe the maximum per-
mitted drawbar load of the tractor on the attachment equipment.
• Ensure that the tractor has sufficient steering and braking power.
Machines connected to a tractor can influence your driving be-
haviour, as well as the steering and braking power of the tractor,
in particular in the case of single axle machines with the drawbar
load on the tractor.
• Only a specialist workshop may adjust the height of the drawbar
on yoke bars with a drawbar load.
