2.16.4 Mounted implements
When mounting, the mounting categories on tractor and imple-
ment must be compatible or an adapter must be used.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions.
Before mounting or dismounting implements on the 3-point hitch,
put the operating equipment to a position in which accidental
raising or lowering is impossible.
There is a danger of crushing or shearing injury in the area of the
three-point linkage.
The implement may be transported and towed only by the trac-
tors intended for this purpose.
There is a risk of injury when implements are coupled to and
uncoupled from the tractor.
Do not step between tractor and implement when operating the
external controls for the 3-point hitch.
There is a danger of crushing and shearing injury when operat-
ing the support devices.
When mounting implements at the front or rear of a tractor, do
not exceed
The permissible total tractor weight
The permissible tractor axle loads
The permissible load-bearing capacities of the tractor tyres.
Observe the max. payload of the mounted implement and the
permissible axle loads of the tractor.
Always ensure that the tractor lower links are adequately locked
against sideways movement before transporting the implement.
When travelling on public roads,
the control lever for the tractor lower links must be secured
against lowering
the control terminal must be switched off.
Move all equipment into the transport position before travelling
on the road.
Any mounted implements and ballast weights affect the han-
dling, steering and braking of the tractor.
The tractor front axle must always be loaded with at least 20 %
of the empty tractor weight to ensure sufficient steering power.
Apply front weights if necessary.
Repair, maintenance and cleaning work or rectifying malfunc-
tions must always only be carried out with
the ignition spanner removed,
and the control terminal switched off.
Leave safety devices attached and always put them in the pro-
tective position.
