5) ADJUSTMENT, PREPARATION AND USE INTRODUCTION Connection to the tractor is highly dangerous. Take great care and carry out the entire operation in strict compliance with the following instructions. Nobody should go near the area between the tractor and the machine. Check that all warning and danger signs are in place and legible.
TRANSPORT INSTRUCTIONS Before transporting, the side arms 1-2 (see page 24). must be raised. To do this move the distributor lever 3, sending fluid through hoses 4-5 to cylinders 6-7, which will close, lifting the side arms 1-2. Before proceeding with transport, make sure that catch 9 is firmly hooked on pin 10 (RH and LH side) in order to guarantee safety while the machine is being transported.
Page 27
PREPARATIONS FOR USE To lower the side arms 1-2 (see page 26) of the RT/5800 hydraulic fold, move the distributor lever 3 so as to send fluid through hoses 4-5 to cylinders 6-7, which will close completely, pulling rope 8 at the same time as when moving distributor lever 3, thus making it possible to release catch 9 from pin 10 (RH and LH side), and then moving distributor lever 3 so as to lower side arms 1-2 down to the ground.
TEMPORARY PARKING 1) Choose a flat, hard open space away from frequented areas if possible. 2) Switch off the engine, leaving the tractor in gear. 3) Apply the parking brake and remove the ignition key. 4) Put the parking stand in the parking position. 5) Turn the angle adjustment crank so that the weight of the machine is on the parking stand, thus avoiding the risk of having the machine tip over backwards.
Page 29
6) MAINTENANCE DIRECTIONS All cleaning, lubrication and maintenance operation must be carried out with the machine disconnected from the tractor. In an emergency with the machine still connected to the tractor, switch off the engine, apply the parking brake, disengage the power takeoff and remove the ignition key from the instrument panel.
