2.6 When driving on the
road
When driving on the road, raise
the machine completely to prevent
the working elements dragging on
the ground.
Road transport speed should not
exceed 16mph (25kmh).
2. Transportation / Installation
2.5.2 When De-coupling
1. Bring the machine to the parking
position as instructed to in Section 2.9.
2. With the machine still connected to
the tractor remove the red brake line
followed by the yellow line.
3. Your brakes will now be ON and will
hold, ensuring they have been adjusted
and maintained correctly, the machine
in position. (note: if the machine‘s tank
is drained of air once all lines have
been detached the brakes will come off
(same situation as pushing the shunt
valve).
4. Continue de-coupling the machine until
it is fully disconnected.
By following the above instructions
you will see that at NO point
in the coupling or decoupling
process has the red line been
left in the tractor on its own.
This is intentional and should be
considered the ‘rule’ to coupling
the hoses.
2.7 Parking the machine
In order to avoid damage as a result of
moisture, the machine should be parked, if
possible, indoors or under cover.
When manoeuvring the machine,
pay attention to your surroundings.
Ensure that nobody is in the
manoeuvring area (watch for
children!).
• Park the machine on level and solid ground.
• Fit chocks under the wheels
• Raise the machine and remove shims from
the lift axle cylinders.
• Lower the machine to the ground, ensuring
that it is stable.
• Remove the drawbar pin and drive forward
slowly until hitch is clear of tractor drawbar.
• Lower the drawbar to the ground.
• Switch off the tractor.
• Disconnect hydraulic lines from the tractor.
