7. 7. HYDRAULIC POWER TAKE-OFF H.P.T.O.
FEATURES:
The machine is equipped with a hydraulic power take-off “F” with simple effect to be used
with particular accessories or hydraulic equipment. The main characteristics of the power
take-off are:
MAX FLOW RATE 45 lt/min
PRESSURE 130 bar
The hydraulic power take-off H.P.T.O. is positioned on the right of the driver's position and
is controlled by switch “S” located at the extreme left-hand side of the dashboard.
The flow and pressure coming out from the power take off are directly proportionate to the
rpm of the diesel engine. Therefore the delivery could change from minimum 0 lt/min to
maximum 45 lt/min.
For using power take off, please observe the following indications:
put the throttle lever at the minimum;
connect the equipment to be used (breaker, wiper etc.) to the power take off quick
hitches;
increase the rpm of the diesel engine moving the throttle accelerator level until the
flow rate corresponding to the correct operation of the connected-up equipment is
achieved.
N.B.: before disconnecting the quick couplers from the power take off ALWAYS turn off
the switch “S” and bring to the minimum the rpm of the diesel engine. Otherwise, once the
engine has been stopped, it will not be possible to start it again.
WARNING!!!
NEVER USE THE POWER TAKE-OFF FOR LONG, CONTINUOUS PERIODS OF TIME.
USE THE MACHINE AT THE MAXIMUM PRESSURE ONLY FOR BRIEF PERIODS OF
TIME, ALTERNATING WITH OPERATION AT MORE MODERATE RATES.
