2.6 Unhitching / 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!).
1 Park the machine on level and solid
ground.
2 Move the roller into its lowest setting
(ie float setting) by removing the shims
from the front side of the depth control
rod. This is to ensure the machine
doesn‘t tip backwards when unhitched.
3 Lower the machine onto the tines
ensuring that it is stable.
4 Remove the toplink and lower the link
arms so that pins can be removed.
5 Switch off the tractor.
2.5 When driving on the
road
When driving on the road the machine must
be converted to the transportation position.
When driving on the road, raise
the machine completely to prevent
the working elements dragging on
the ground.
Ensure that the tractor rear lights
are visible from behind during
transport.
2.4 Hitching Up /
Preparing for Transport
When hitching-up the machine,
ensure that no-one is between the
tractor and the machine.
1. Connect the tractor to the machine
using the hydraulics to raise or lower
the the height of the tractor lower link
arms.
2. When the lower link arms are aligned fit
the lower link pins and the lynch pins.
3. Fit the tractor toplink between the
tractor and the machine.
4. Raise the machine using the tractor
link arms.
Ensure the levelling disc beam
is in the transport position before
transporting the machine.
