WARNING Read this instruction manual before using the implement Before working on the implement, lean the implement on earth, turn off the loader, release the residual pressure, remove the key and read the present instruction manual Keep a safe distance from the side and from the rear of the implement to prevent the...
1- Implement identification Each R2 implement bears a plate with the CE mark indicating main identification data for R2 and the implement (Fig. 1).The plate is located on the main casing of the implement (milling unit).
By installing the seeder unit (optional) a seeding operation can be added. The use of the MILL GRADER Mod MTZ HI consists in preparing the soil for lawns, gardens, sports fields, vegetable gardens and in optimal milling, levelling and compacting the soil.

To keep low the center of gravity during transport, keep the MTZ HI mill grader in the lowest position and as close as possible to the loader. Follow the instructions given in the operation and maintenance manual of the loader.
6. When mounting the implement to the loader, ensure that the locking pins of the loader's quick attach plate are in the lower position and that they have locked the mill grader MTZ HI to the loader. Never lift or transport the implement if it has not been locked.

23. The MILL GRADER mod. HI implement has been built for a precise work. It must always be in perfect working condition and should be repaired using only original R2 spare parts. 24. Make sure all persons and animals are clear from the work area prior to powering up your implement or during use.
NOTE 1: in the MTZ HI 135, 150 and 170 models, replace the end part of the standard screw register with the part supplied with the seeder unit and apply the screw register in the opposite direction as to the standard application (Fig.
7 – Attaching the implement to the loader (original instructions) Attaching the implement to the loader is quick and easy, but it must be done carefully. The implement is mounted to the loader boom by using the quick attach plate and the counterpart on the implement.

8 – Connecting and disconnecting the hydraulic hoses On 400-700 series loaders hydraulic hoses are connected using the multiconnector system. If you have an Avant 300-700 series loader with the conventional quick couplers and wish to change to the multiconnector system, contact your Avant dealer or service point for instructions or installation services.
9 – Preparing for use Before using the implement, always perform the following checks with the tractor turned off and the key removed. 1. Perform a general visual inspection of the implement. Verify the correct mounting of the components (mechanical parts and guards). Do not use the implement if you experience an oil leak and/or if you see that parts of the implement are damaged, missing or not properly secured.
12 – Adjustment and use of the seeder SM Fill the hopper with seed and close the door. To adjust the quantity of seed that should fall, use the knob on the hopper opening lever (Fig. 23 – Ref A) and set it to the desired position on the graduated scale. Using the open/close lever (Fig. 23 –...
13.2 - Locking the milling assembly The MILL GRADER Mod. MTZ HI has been designed and constructed to minimize the risk that the milling assembly could lock up while tilling the soil. Anyway, you cannot exclude that this occur when there are big stones in the soil, wire or other elements that can get into or wind around the hoes.
Any intervention for breakage and damage must be performed by personnel skilled in maintenance of mechanical agricultural equipment. In this case, contact your dealer or R2 technicians directly. For maintenance on the seeder assembly (optional), read the relevant operation and maintenance manual.
15 – Replacing the hoes Working the soil determines a gradual consumption of the hoes. When the hoes have become a length of 8 cm, they must be replaced. Using the implement with tools of a length less than 8 cm may cause a reduction of the tillage quality and increase the risk of clamping and damages to the milling group.

16 – End of work and storage of the implement If the Mill Grader MTZ HI should stay inactive for a long period of time, the following operations must be done: 1. Wash the implement carefully and wipe it dry. WARNING (for implements with optional seeder): to avoid solidification and/or germination of seed residues inside the seeder, do not use water to clean the inside of the hopper;...
