Headlights
As you can use your tractor on public roads, the lighting
must comply with the applicable traffic and road regula-
tions. Periodically check headlight alignment in the fol-
lowing way:
Checking headlight alignment (Fig.8-5)
- Halt the tractor on level ground facing a shaded wall
(preferably white). The tractor must be unloaded and
the tyres correctly inflated. Mark two crosses on the
wall in front of the tractor headlight centres.
- Reverse the tractor 5 meters (16.4 ft) away from the
wall.
- Switch on the main beam.
The centre of each beam must be vertically aligned with
the crosses on the wall.
A maximum outward divergence of 130 mm (5 in) is
acceptable.
- Switch on the dipped beams.
The line separating the lighted area from the dark area
must fall below the crosses and must be separated
from their centres by at least 1/20th of the height of
the crosses from the ground.
- Adjust the headlight alignment screws to correct align-
ment as required (1 - Fig.8-4).
