RECOMMENDATIONS BEFORE YOU
SERVICE
WARNING: Before servicing, carefully read the
instructions in this section. There is a risk of
injury or death if servicing is not carried out or
if the following instructions are not followed
correctly. If you do not understand a service
or adjustment procedure see your dealer.
WARNING: Do not carry out inspections, main-
tenance work or adjustments on the tractor
whilst the engine is running, except when
specifically requested. Wait for all moving
parts to come to a complete stop.
- If the maintenance operation must be carried
out while the engine is hot (e.g. when chang-
ing engine oil), start the engine and let it idle
for the required time, then turn it off before
the maintenance operation.
- If you need to open the bonnet, follow the
procedure indicated under "How to open the
bonnet". In this case beware the risk of burn-
ing and shearing.
- Always use specific PERSONAL SAFETY DE-
VICES (DPI) for each service operation.
Before any adjustments are made carry out
the following:
1. Park the tractor on hard level ground and
apply the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine and remove the key.
3. Put blocks in front of and behind the front
and rear wheels.
4. DO NOT smoke or use an open flame during
the service procedure. Use eye protection
and suitable DPI.
WARNING: When handling lubricants (oil, grease etc.)
and other chemical products, always follow instruc-
tions for their proper use. Use proper containers to
