4.2. CONNECTION TO THE 3-POINT HITCH OF THE TRACTOR
ATTENTION!
Every time that somebody comes down from the tractor, it is necessary
to disconnect the pto shaft, stopping the engine and to put on the parking
brake.
For the connection of the machine to the tractor, please operate in the following way:
• Step backwards with the tractor until arriving in proximity
of the lower connections of the fertilizer spreader.
• Fix the lower connections of the tractor to the pins of the
machine and lock them with the safety plugs.
• Connect the upper linkage of the machine to the 3-point
hitch of the tractor putting the appropriate pin and block
the anti-unscrewing device of the 3-point hitch;
• Raise the machine of some centimetres by the ground
and operate on the lateral ties of the lifter bars and on
the two turnbuckles, in order to block the lateral movement, so as to prevent excessive
oscillations during the working phase.
The machine must be positioned, through the raising of the lower connections of the tractor, so
that the land distance from the lower extremity of the distributor disc is approximately of 70 cm.
To obtain a regular distribution, it is important that the distributor disc is in horizontal position
compared to the land).
• After having made these operations, the pto shaft must be linked to the smooth shaft of the
gearbox of the machine (covered by a safety cowling) and after to the tractor power take-off.
ATTENTION!
The pto shaft must always be connected at last to the tractor power take off
and disconnected at first, when you stop working.
.
 On demand, the COSMO pendular spreaders can be equipped with a quick attachment (A).
 In order to simplify the connection operation we suggest to assemble the bar (A) on the lower
arms of the tractor’s lifter. Afterwards, in order
to connect the machine, open the connection
hooks (B) by unloosing the fixing nuts (C), bring
the tractor nearer till to put the bar connected to
the lifter in the connection hooks’ slots, lock
them tight and fix them by the bolts.
 The bar (A) must be kept rised (as shown in the
picture) in order to avoid the Pto shaft could hit
with it during the working.
