Access for inspection and mainte-
nance
It may be necessary to open the bonnet in order to ac-
cess the engine components and carry out inspections,
lubrication and servicing operations.
DANGER: Danger of shearing. Open the
bonnet and remove the side panel only for
servicing, with engine off and rotating parts
completely at standstill.
WARNING: All the surfaces inside the bonnet
are hot. High burning danger. Be extremely
careful and wait for the surfaces to cool down
before operating inside the bonnet to avoid
burns.
WARNING: In a few particular cases some
service operations may require an open bon-
net. Always turn off the engine, as with an
open bonnet the protection from rotating
parts is reduced. In this case, pay also great
attention to hot parts. Wear specific DPI and
keep away any persons not required for the
service operations.
WARNING: A gas ram controls opening and
closing of the bonnet. Replace the gas ram if
not properly operating to avoid accidental fall
of the bonnet.
WARNING: If the tractor is equipped with
front hitch and power take-off, before open-
ing the bonnet lower the links completely,
whether there are implements or not.
Bonnet opening
Park the tractor on hard, level ground, engage the parking
brake, turn the engine off and remove the ignition key.
To open the bonnet:
– Release the detent hook of the bonnet with the aid of
a pin driver (1) as shown in Fig. 7-6
– - Raise the bonnet (1) that is kept raised by the gas
rams (Fig.7-7).
– To shut the bonnet again, lower the bonnet against the
resistance of the gas rams (Fig.7-4b).
WARNING: NEVER use the tractor without the
bonnet.
