of the machine (See Table 1) and with proper chains and type approved hooks to be fixed in the
marked points, as shown in Figure 15.
4.2 Attachment to and Detachment from the Tractor:
Before carrying out this operation and any time the shredder is used, it is mandatory
to:
1. Visually check the machine in general.
2. Check that all guards are fitted and in good condition.
3. Confirm that all flails are fitted and in good condition.
4. Grease the bearings and any other parts as indicated by a decal (Figure 41).
5. Check the oil level of the gearbox and extension.
4.2.1 Bring the tractor lower hitches (1) near the shredder, insert the two pins (2) and
secure them with the spring clips, adjust the tractor’s lower linkage stabilizers (3)
thus fixing the shredder to the tractor in a horizonal position about 2.5” from the
