- Remove pin K.
- Lower the machine using the tractors power lift until an
adequate work position has been reached (450 mm / 17.7
inches).
- Fix the adjuster chain alongside the tractors third point
using clip G positioned at an appropriate distance on the
chain.
- Fold the front part of the protective cover downwards,
turning front holder Z (fig.10) after having disengaged the
safety side lock (25 fig. 1).
- Make sure that the driveline is engaged and the shield
fixed with the chains.
4.2 DURING WORK
CAUTION
Make sure that the PTO speed setting is 540 rpm
since the machine is designed to operate at this
speed
Cover a short distance and check to make sure that a
satisfactory job has been done.
Check the adjustments made to the machine if this is not
the case.
WARNING
Constantly check to make sure that there are no
persons or animals within the range of action of
the machine as stones and other sharp materials
may be thrown up by the knives as they spin.
For the best possible result, it is advisable to proceed at a
speed between 5 and 15 kph approx. adapting this to the
conditions of the soil and the crop.
WARNING
Always check to make sure that the ground speed suits
the conditions or work and that it can never be a
potential source of danger.
Do not make sharp turns with the machine on the ground
and do not work in reverse.
Always lift the machine when changing direction and
turning after first having disengaged the PTO.
WARNING
Apply the parking brake, turn off the engine,
remove the ignition key from the dashboard and
wait until all moving parts have come to a com-
plete stop before getting of the tractor and before
all adjustments and servicing work are carried
out.
During use, the machine may give rise to dust, especially if
the soil is dry.
You are advised to use a tractor with a cab fitted with filters
in the ventilation system.
Failing this, wear a dust mask or mask with filter to protect
your respiratory tract.
4.3 DIFFICULT WORK CONDITIONS
WARNING
Do not mow on stony ground.
The protective cover must always be down to prevent
objects from being thrown up.
When the work conditions are particularly difficult or
the ground is irregular, it is advisable to take the
following precautions:
- Reduce the speed of the tractor,
- Make sure that the knives are free to turn.
4.4 SAFETY RELEASE
If the cutting components (disc) hit against an obstacle during
work, the safety release immediately retracts the mowing
bar and notably dampens the impact received.
Immediately stop the engine and disengage the PTO of the
tractor.
Reverse a few meters to fit the safety release back in place.
To start the machine working again, make sure that the safety
release has been regulated and that the cutting components
have not been damaged in any way.
Keep the device in a perfectly efficient condition by lubricating
it frequently and checking it to make sure that it operates
correctly.
The spring must be adjusted to the following lengths
(fig.15):
bar with 4-5 discs L = 98 100 mm / 3.82 - 3.9 inches
bar with 6-7 discs L = 95 97 mm / 3.75 - 3.8 inches
Length L must never be less than 95 mm / 3.75 inches.
