SWINGING DRAWBAR - - Figs. 3 and 4
Use
the
swinging
agricultural machinery and trailers with two axles.
Do not, on the other hand, use it for single--axle
trailers as they apply excessive weight to the bar,
which will risk tipping the tractor.
The wide horizontal trajectory of the bar is extremely
useful for implements and machines requiring lateral
freedom of movement, such as balers.
This equipment can be supplied:
--
with suitable brackets to fit either a rigid towing
hook or a Rockinger hitch;
--
with a bracket designed to fit only to a towbar.
The following adjustments can be made to the bar:
--
height adjustment, by turning the fork to face
upward or downward fig. 3;
--
prevention of lateral swing by inserting limiter
fork (1) fig. 4.
CAUTION
The towing equipment should be selected on the
basis of the type of trailer or implement to be towed
and should comply with current legislation.
--
The ease of handling and driving safety of the
tractor depends on correct towing adjustment.
--
A towing device fitted high up increases towing
capacity but also means that the tractor has a
tendency to tip back. Therefore ensure that the
trailer shaft is not at too great an upward angle.
--
When using four- -wheel drive, the towing bracket
should be in its lower position with the shaft
almost horizontal.
--
Avoid towing excessively heavy trailers or loads.
--
Do not start suddenly as this considerably
increases the risk of tipping backwards.
--
Always brake the trailer first and then the tractor.
