in the safe position.
13. It is absolutely prohibited to stand within the ma-
chine’s radius of action where there are moving parts.
14. It is absolutely forbidden to use the equipment without
the guards and container covers.
15. Before leaving the tractor,lower the equipment
hooked to the lifting unit, stop the engine, pull the
hand brake and remove the key from the dashboard,
make sure that the chemical substances safely out of
reach.
16. The driver’s seat must never be left when the tractor
engine is running.
17. Before starting the equipment, check that the sup-
porting feet have been removed from under the ma-
chine; check that the machine has been correctly as-
sembled and regulated; check that the machine is in
perfect working order, and that all the parts subject to
wear and tear are in good condition.
18. Before releasing the equipment from the third point
attachment, put the hoist command lever into the
locked position and lower the support feet.
19. Only operate when visibility is good.
20. All operations must be carried out by expert person-

ATTENTION!
ATTENTION! LOSS OF EQUIPMENT ON THE ROAD
AND OF VEHICLE CONTROL, DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURIES FOR THE DRIVER AND THE PEOPLE IN
THE VICINITY. Before connecting the equipment to the
tractor, and in any case within 8 hours of continuous
use, check the state of wear and the integrity of the
tractor connecting elements and of the structural ele-
ments. The machine cannot be used if anomalies are
noted. Contact your dealer immediately.
1. Hook the equipment to a suitable, sufficiently-
powered tractor by means of the appropriate device
(lifter), in conformity with applicable standards.
2. The class of the equipment attachment pins must be
the same as that of the lifter attachment.
3. Take care when working within the range of the lifting
arms as this is a very dangerous area.
4. Be very careful when hooking and unhooking the
equipment.
5. It is absolutely forbidden to stand between the tractor
and linkage for manoeuvring the lifting controls from
the outside (fig. 2.2).
6. It is absolutely forbidden to stand in the space be-
tween the tractor and the equipment (fig. 2.2) with
the engine running. It is possible to work between
the tractor and the equipment only after the parking
brake has been applied and a suitably sized blocking
wedge or stone has been placed under the wheels.
7. The attaching of additional equipment onto the trac-
tor brings about a different distribution of weight on
the axles. Check the compatibility of the tractor per-
formance with the weight that the machine transfers
onto the three-point linkage. If in doubt consult the
tractor Manufacturer.
8. Comply with the maximum admissible weight for the
axle, the total mobile weight, transport regulations
and the highway code.

Transport on Road
1. When driving on public roads, be sure to follow the
highway code of the country involved.
2. Any transport accessories must be provided with suit-
able signs and guards.
3. It is very important to remember that road holding
capacity as well as direction and braking capacity
can be influenced, sometimes considerably, by equip-
ment being either carried or towed.
4. When negotiating curves, be aware of the variation in
centrifugal force exerted in a position other than that
of the center of gravity, with and without the equip-
ment in tow. Also pay greater attention on sloping
roads or ground.
5. For transport, adjust and fasten the lateral lifting arm
chains of the tractor; lock the hydraulic lifting control
lever.
6. For displacements beyond the work area, the equip-
ment must be placed in the transportation position.
7. Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports
and tables for signaling of dimensions.
8. When the dimensions of carried or partially-carried
equipment conceal the tractor’s signalling and lighting
devices, these must also be installed on the equip-
ment itself, in conformity with regulations of the high-
way code of the country involved. When in operation
make sure that the lighting system is in perfect work-
ing order.
