7 Coupling and uncoupling the implement
When coupling and uncoupling the implement take heed of the sec-
tion “Safety information for users”.
Danger
 Secure the tractor and the implement against unintentional
start-up and rolling before working on the implement.
 Direct people out of the danger area between the tractor
and implement before you approach the implement with the
tractor.
 Any helpers may only act as guides standing next to the
tractor and the implement, and may only move between the
vehicles when both are at a standstill.
 Never actuate the operating controls for the tractor's three-
point hydraulic system while you are in the danger area be-
tween the tractor and implement.
When handling the universal joint shaft, observe the following:
 Use only the provided universal joint shaft or one of the pre-
scribed type.
 Read and follow the operating manual for the universal joint
shaft supplied by the universal joint shaft manufacturer.
Correct use and maintenance of the universal joint shaft pre-
vents serious accidents.
 When coupling the universal joint shaft, observe the operating
manual from the universal joint shaft manufacturer.
 The installation length of the universal joint shaft must be ac-
cording to the specifications (see included operating manual
from the universal joint shaft manufacturer). Have the universal
joint shaft shortened by a specialist workshop if necessary.
 Ensure sufficient clearance in the swivelling area of the univer-
sal joint shaft. Insufficient clearance causes damage to the uni-
versal joint shaft.
 Observe the permitted drive rev. speed of the implement.
 Observe the correct installation position of the universal joint
shaft. The tractor symbol on the protective tube of the universal
joint shaft identifies the tractor-side connection of the universal
joint shaft.
Always mount the universal joint shaft overload clutch on the
implement side.
 Before switching on the tractor PTO shaft, read and follow the
safety precautions for PTO shaft operation (see section "Safety
information for the operator").
