Under "designated use" also the manufacturer’s pre- scribed operation, maintenance and repair conditions must be adhered to as well as the exclusive use of original AMAZONE-BBG-spare parts. Any damage resulting from arbitrary changes on the machine rule out the responsibility of the manufacturer.
Safety Safety This instruction manual contains basic advice, Identification of advice in this which has to be observed when mounting, operat- instruction manual ing and maintaining the machine. Thus, this in- struction manual has implicitly to be read by the operator before starting to operate and this book must be made available to him.
Safety Warning pictographs and hint symbols on the machine • The warning pictographs indicate dangerous MD 095 MD 078 points on the machine. Observing these picto- graphs means safety for all persons using this machine. The hint symbols always are linked to safety/warning symbols.

Safety Transport on public roads Please observe the following hints. They help to prevent accidents in pub- lic road traffic. 1. The permissible transport speed with unbraked axle load is 25 km/h. 2. When driving on public roads with lifted imple- ment the control lever has to be locked against unintended lowering.
Description Description of product The disc harrow Taurus 4000/3000 (Fig. 3) is suit- able for the use in minimum soil tillage on medium and heavier soils. The X-Pack formation of the disc gangs is used to avoid any side forces on the tractor. (Fig. 4). Due to the staggered arrangement of the discs in the cen- tre the soil is moved across the entire working width.
On receipt of the machine On receipt of the machine Check that no damage has been caused in transit and that all parts are present. Otherwise no responsi- bility can be accepted by the manufacturer or the carrier. Check whether all parts (and options) listed up in the delivery note are present.
Mounting and dismounting Mounting and dismounting Dismounting When mounting the soil tillage imple- ment to the tractor observe the safety Control unit for transport wheels in floating posi- advice. tion Attach implements as advised and only Lower implement until it rests on the discs/rollers to the attachment points provided.
Transport to the field – Transport on public roads and ways Transport to the field – Transport on public roads and ways When travelling on public roads and ways during transport to the field trac- tor and implement have to correspond to your national road transport and traffic rules.

Transport to the field – Transport on public roads and ways Take the guard canvass from the retainer un- derneath the rear of the frame and attach to the disc gangs by using tension rubber bands (Fig. 6). When driving on public roads with lifted implement the control lever has to be locked against unintended lower- ing.
Settings Settings Adjustment of the cutting angle The usual adjustment for the traction force, the op- erational speed and the operational efficiency is: 18º on the scalloped disc gangs in the front, 15º on the rear plain disc gangs. 7.1.1 Hydraulic adjustment of the cutting angle Proceed as follows to change the cutting angle ad-...
Settings Working depth The implement is in the raised position The height adjustable rear mounted roller provides the accurate depth guidance. The resetting and/or twisting of the so-called eccentric pins allow a nearly infinitely variable setting of the working depth. Reset the eccentric pin (Fig.
Settings Setting the scrapers on the wedge ring roller The scrapers have been set by the factory. In order to adapt the setting to the operational condi- tions, proceed as follows: Slacken the bolted connection (Fig. 10/1), Adjust the scraper on the slotted hole, Retighten the bolted connection.
Operation Operation Mount the disc harrow onto the tractor. Connect hydraulic system. Remove the guard canvass from the disc gangs, roll them up and deposit into the retainers pro- vided on the rear of the frame. Secure with ten- sioning rubber bands. Raise the transport wheels so that the implement rests on the support rollers..

Cleaning, maintenance and repair Cleaning, maintenance and re- pair Repair-, maintenance- and cleaning operations as well as the remedy of function faults should principally be conducted with drive engine stopped. Remove ignition key. When conducting electrical welding operations on the tractor or on the mounted implement remove cable from the generator and the battery.
Cleaning, maintenance and repair 9.1.1 Exchange intervals The period of use of any hydraulic hose circuit should not exceed 6 years (including a possible storing period of two years maximum). 9.1.2 Marking Hydraulic hoses are marked as follows: Name of the manufacturer Date of production Maximum dynamic operational pressure 9.1.3...
