Ways Of Changing Drawbar Features And Passing Ability Of The Tractor - Belarus 1523.5 Operator's Manual

1523.5-0000010 OM
- when moving up a steep slope.
Do not engage the PTO shaft in the following cases:
- when the tractor engine is off;
- the implement coupled to the tractor is in transport position;
- when the implement operating parts are sunken into the soil;
-.if the implement operating parts are covered in process material or if the operating parts
are clogged or wedged;
- if there is a considerable slope angle (refraction angle) in any plane of cardan shaft hinge
joints.
While operating rotation tilling machines with active operating parts, it is additionally re-
quired to observe the following rules:
- not to engage the PTO shaft when the implement is grounded. The PTO shaft shall be
engaged only when the ready to operate implement is lowered so that its operating parts
do not touch the ground with the clearance not less than 35 mm;
- lowering of the implement with rotating operating parts shall be carried out smoothly
when the tractor is moving forward;
- during operation prevent the tractor from moving in the direction not corresponding the
implement working travel, when the operating parts are sunken into the soil with the PTO
shaft engaged and disengaged;
- during operation on solid soils it is required to carry out processing of cross ranges for
moving in enclosure, and then process the soil in the lengthwise direction;
- it is recommended to work at the minimum soil processing depth needed for the specific
crop. It is necessary for load reduction on the tractor PTO shaft and for reduction of fuel
consumption during tractor operation. It is particularly important to consider this fact during
tractor operation with multiple-purpose tillage units.

4.10 Ways of changing drawbar features and passing ability of the tractor

There are the following ways of changing drawbar features of "BELARUS-1523.5" tractor:
- increase of tractor adhesion weight;
- increase of wheel tire-soil adhesion.
To increase the adhesion weight of the tractor, do the following:
- use quick-detachable hitch ballast weight;
- fill tires with water (solution);
To increase wheel tire-soil adhesion, do the following:
select optimal internal pressure in tires, depending on the operating conditions and load on
tractor axles;
apply rear axle differential lock;
twin the wheels.
Note – Pneumatic pressure rate in the front and rear tires of the tractors "BELARUS -
1523.5" under actual load is shown in subsection "Selection of optimal internal pressure in
tires depending on the operating conditions and load on tractor axles".
To obtain information on the rules of rear wheel twinning and filling of wheel tires with wa-
ter (solution), as well as on operating limitations for tractors equipped with twinned wheels
and tires with water (solution) - contact your dealer.
