6.3 Lighting system
The 7 pin plug of the lighting system on the machine must be connected to the 7 pin
socket on the tractor. Note: Before travelling on a public road the operator must
ensure that the complete (tractor and machine) lighting system is in a fully
functioning condition.
6.4 Attaching the
Fusion 2
to a 540 rpm PTO
Caution: The McHale
Fusion 2
should be driven with a standard PTO speed
of 540 rpm (max. PTO speed = 610 rpm, a PTO speed above 610 rpm is
likely to cause damage to machine components). Do not use any faster PTO
speed other than the above specified! All mechanical functions are related to the
correct PTO speed. Follow the instructions as supplied with the PTO unit for correct
assembling of the PTO shaft to the tractor.
6.5 Attaching to drawbar
The drawbar is to be attached so that the McHale
Fusion 2
is horizontal to the
ground as in section 7.12, “Drawbar adjustment”. Machines are set up for hitching to
the
tractor drawbar as shown in fig. 6.51 below. Once the tractor is attached to the
drawbar attach the PTO shaft. Depending on the country of use a safety chain may
also be required. Detach in reverse order of attachment.
Fig. 6.5.1 Drawbar attachment.
6.6 Attaching break away brake
The McHale
Fusion 2
is fitted with a hand brake which must be applied when the
machine is detached from the tractor. The hand brake handle has a rope fitted to a
calibrated ring which must have the other end securely fixed to the tractor each time
the
Fusion 2
is attached to the tractor. Should the
Fusion 2
hitch ever become
detached from the tractor this rope will apply the brakes on the
Fusion 2
.
Caution: Always ensure the hand brake has been released before moving
the
Fusion 2
on the road or operating in a field.
