Warning:
Dangerous operations [4.2.e][4.2.b]
Safe use of power take off
Make sure that the PTO shield (1) is in its positions
and that the not rotating shaft cover (2) is mounted
when the power take-off is not used (Fig.2-32).
To engage the power take-off:
a. Make sure that all safety guards and shields of the
PTO shaft are in place and follow the directions of
the safety decals.
b. Make sure that everyone stands clear of the tractor
before engaging the PTO.
c. Make sure that the implement and the driveline uni-
versal coupling are suitable for the use, provided with
specific guards, fully mounted and in perfect order.
d. Make sure that the power take-off rotation rate is
suitable for the mounted implement and for the work
to be carried out.
e. The power take off must be engaged only from the
driver's seat, carefully operating the specific control.
f. When the power take off is engaged, never leave
your seat. Before leaving the driver's seat, always
disengage the power take off shifting the control to
the idle position, wait for the drive transmission shaft
and the implement to stop, engage the parking brake
and turn off the engine.
DANGER: Before connecting, disconnecting,
cleaning, adjusting or carrying out any op-
eration on implements or machines operated
by the power take off, always disconnect the
power take off, turn off the engine, wait for the
implement to be stopped and to the ground,
remove the ignition key from the driving posi-
tion (Fig.2-34).
Stationary use of the tractor:
You must always make sure that any bystander are
well clear of the tractor and moving implement. Place
the tractor on a flat surface. Engage the power take
off as described previously. Before leaving the tractor,
always shift gearbox, reverse shuttle and ranges to
neutral, then engage the parking brake acting with
enough force on the control lever. If soil conditions
so require, block the tractor and implement wheels
with suitable wedges.
DANGER: Do not go near the moving implement
or to the drive shaft, and do not allow other
persons to do so. (Fig.2-33)
If the front or rear power take off is provided with
controls outside the driver's seat, besides using the
above mentioned precautions, always operate the
