Operator present sensor
The seat cushion acts as a switch. The moment no load is
sensed (the operator’s own weight) an alarm sounds.
WARNING: To warn the operator of incorrect
usage, the tractor has an automatic alarm
system that sounds when the operator is not
correctly seated in driving position while the
machine is being used.
In all machines, both with mechanic and hydraulic
gearbox, this alarm sounds whenever the operator
leaves his/her seat without turning off the engine, and
is silenced only after engaging the parking brake and
shifting the gear to neutral.
Machines with hydraulic reverse shuttle are equipped
with a further restraint that acts (whenever the
operator gets off his/her seat without turning off
the engine) with inhibition of forward and reverse
hydraulic clutches if the tractor is at standstill. If the
tractor is on the move, the system inhibits the same
clutches as soon as the neutral position of the reverse
shuttle lever is sensed: In this case, the transmission
goes automatically to Neutral. The operator must then
return to his/her seat and the reverse shuttle shifted
to Neutral in order to get the tractor started again.
WARNING: Do not tamper with this component
in any way.
Contact your Dealer immediately if the system is not
operatingcorrectly.
