1 - GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 PURPOSE OF THE MANUAL This manual has been written by the Manufacturer of the machine and is an integral part of the documents accompanying the machine. The manual defines the purposes for which the machine has been produced, specifying its correct use and the limits of the same.
2 - TECHNICASL SPECIFICATIONS 2.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE Shredders are machines having a rotor which is driven by the tractor PTO through a universal joint and through the gear box and the lateral belt transmission . They are used for the maintenance of green areas or the direct shredding on the soil where they chop up organic residues of what is left of the crops (grassy residues).
It is forbidden to replace it with other universal joints differing from the original. Carefully read the directions given in the manual attached to the universal joint. TE CHNICAL DATA OF THE UNIVERSAL JOINTS Machine Type Code TT93-160 A6900-1”3/8 z = 6 1”3/8 z = 6 MO6951 TT93-200 A6900-1”3/8 z = 6 1”3/8 z = 6...

SAFETY RULES 3.1 SAFE USE OF THE MACHINE Read the owner’s manual carefully before starting-up, before using the machine and before carrying out maintenance operations on the equipment. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for injuries caused to people and animals, or damage caused because the safety regulations have not been observed by the user.
SAFETY RULES Do not let the implement run when raised (off the ground). While working do not turn bends while the machine is set in the ground. Never work in reverse gear. Always lift it off the ground when you change directions or drive in reverse gear.
Page 13
SAFETY RULES If the tractor being used does not have a sound-proof and pressurized cab, the operator must use individual protecting gear: Earmuffs , if the sound exceeds the levels allowed Dust-protecting mask, if, because of the material being treated or of a very dusty soil, or because the machine is open, a large amount of dust is raised.
3 SAFETU RULES 3.3 CLOTHING Always put on clothes protecting the body with no hanging parts that could get entangled in moving components. Remove watches, rings, necklaces, etc. that could cause injury in dangerous situations. Tie up long hair into a ponytail.
3 SAFETU RULES Indicates the danger of being crushed by turning D02614 belts and pulleys Indicates the danger caused by pressurised oil if D02624 the hydraulic pipes break. Consult the instruction manual before repairing the hydraulic system. Indicates the danger caused by excessive noise D08155 during while working 3.6 SOUND LEVEL...
4 ASSEMBLY 4.1 LIFTING THE MACHINE The lifting and transport operations must be performed with means suited to the weight of the machine. Hook the machine as shown in the picture and then transport it. During the latter operation the machine should not be lifted more than 200 mm off the ground.
4 ASSEMBLY 4.4 OF THE UNIVERSAL JOINT The angle of inclination of the working universal joint must be as small as possible (no more than 10 ÷ 15 degrees). This will improve the lifespan of both the universal joint and of the machine (see picture). Since the universal joint is an organ which rotates at a rather high speed, during its calibration it undergoes a balancing adjustment: any modification following this operation may impair the performance of the machine, as well as the performance of the universal joint itself.
ASSEMBLY At least 20% of the total tractor/implement mass Tractor wheel inter-axis i =……………… m should bear on the front bridge of the tractor. It should be remembered, however, that stability can Distance between the front d =………………m improved with right choice axis and the front ballast...
5 DIRECTIONS FOR USE 5.1 ADJUSTMENT OF THE WORKING DEPTH Lift the implement off the ground and adjust the working height. Adjust the position of the machine with the lifting device, making sure that the machine is horizontal or only slightly higher at the front, in order to make the intake of the material to be shredded easier.
5 – DIRECTIONS FOR USE 5.2 SIDE SHIFT The shredder may be complete with a manual or hydraulic side-shift of the frame of the 3-point hitch. This side-shift is used when working close to ditches or in crops requiring the machine to be displaced laterally. * MECHANICAL SIDE-SHIFT (with a telescopic tube) The mechanical (or manual) side shift is to be set when the machine is standing still and not mounted on the tractor...
5 – DIRECTIONS FOR USE 5.3 REAR WHEELS (option) The machine may be supplied (or equipped later) with a pair of rear wheels which are used to adjust the working height. If these are mounted on the machine, it is necessary to remove the rear roller, since the wheels would not fulfill their task if this were left on.
5 – DIRECTIONS FOR USE 5.5 USE After all the operations previously described have been performed, start the tractor engine while keeping the machine slightly off the ground and engage the PTO with the engine turning at a slow rate. As the tractor begins to move forward, gradually lower the machine to the ground and increase the engine rpm.

5 – DIRECTIONS FOR USE 5.9 PROBLEMS AND PROBLEM SHOOTING - If, while working, you notice strange sounds coming from the machine, stop and make sure you have restored the correct working conditions - To work with a machine which does not perform correctly causes dangerous situations for the user. Working on a hillside Whenever possible work “uphill”...
5 - ISTRUZIONI PER L’USO 5.10 FURTHER ADVISE TO THE TRACTOR DRIVER Problem Cure 1 Lift the machine slightly off the ground by adjusting the height through the wheels (the blades of the shredder should never touch the ground) The material to be shredded is minced too small 2 Increase the driving speed 1 Slightly lower the machine to the ground...
6 - MAINTENANCE 6.1 CHECK-UPS AND CONTROLS During the first 8 hours of work it is advisable to check the tightness of all the nuts and bolts, since the stress generated while the machine is working creates a settling of its structure. If necessary tighten according to the chart and repeat this check-up every 50 working hours 10.9 12.9...
6 - MAINTENANCE 6.2 LATERAL TRANSMISSION The transmission of the driving motion to the rotor occurs through belts with adjustable pulleys. In order to prevent the belts from slipping or from malfunctioning, check the tension of the transmission belts. Tensioning the transmission belts In order to do this, make sure that the engine is switched off: Remove the screws holding the protecting cover in place and remove it by pulling it ;...
6 - MAINTENANCE 6.3 REPLACING THE BLADES OR THE HAMMERS In order to replace the hammers it is necessary: To place the machine mounted on the tractor on a flat surface With the lifting system of the tractor lift the machine as high as possible from the ground Place adequate props under both ends of the machine Turn off tractor engine and pull hand-brake Replace blades and tighten forcefully the bolts with the nuts that hold them (tightening torque 50Nm)
