- To replace all the tubes of the hydraulic systems.

5.0.9 SETTING ASIDE

At the end of the season, or if a long period of rest is for seen it
is advisable:
1) Carefully empty all the seed from the hopper and distribution
assÕy.
2) Wash the equipment with a lot of water, especially the tanks,
and than dry them. Clean the electrical components only with
a dry cloth.
3) Carefully check worn or damaged parts and replace if necessary.
4) Check the state of wear of the transmission chains and toothed
wheels. Replace damaged or worn out parts, if required. Use
solvent to clean the transmission chains, the toothed wheels and
the chain stretchers. Lubricate with mineral oil (SAE 80W/90)
when dry.
5) Tighten all screws and bolts.
6) Apply protecting oil to all unpainted parts (Fig. 68).
7) Protect the equipment with a (nylon) cover.
8) Then put it in a dry place, do not move it and where it is out of
reach of un authorized people.
If these operations are done carefully, it will be to the total advan-
tage of the user because when work is recommenced, he will fi nd
the equipment in perfect conditions.

5.1 SUGGESTIONS IN CASE OF INCONVENIENCES

5.1.1 CLOGGING OF THE PIPES

- Check, on the basis of the rotation test chart, the position of the
butterfl y valves.
- The blades are clogged with wet soil
- The distribution pipes are bent somewhere.
- Foreign bodies in the distributor or blade.
- Respect the rpm, 540 or 1000, of the power take-off.
- The blower pump rpm has been reduced because of worn V-belts.
5.1.2 THE AMOUNT OF SEED IN KG/HA DOES NOT
CORRESPOND TO THE VALUES OF THE ROTATION TEST
The causes involved in the excessive amount of seeds dispersed
may be:
- the sealing rims are defective and no longer adhere, because of
wear or mice eating them away.
- during the rotation test the drive transmission wheel was turned
too fast.
The causes involved in an insuffi cient amount of seed dispersed
may be:
- dosing unit access clogged by foreign bodies.
- During the distribution of fi ne seeds cases can be verifi ed in which
it has outside been exited of seeds from the dosage system.
- during the rotation test the empty weight of the collecting container
was not taken into account and deducted.
- Insuffi cient movement of the hoist arms: the planting unit is not
free to follow the path of the soil, causing the transmission wheel
to slip (chapter 3.1.1 reference 3).
- Check the pressure of the seed drill tyres:
tyres 13.0/55-16AW
- When working at very slow speeds (less than 3 km/h), seed
planting may be irregular. In this case, please consult the Ma-
nufacturer.
The differences due to slipping or excessive distribution at the
beginning of the fi eld, are around 2-4%. Greater deviations can
be traced back exclusively to errors in the rotation test, to a wrong
transmission ratio or similar causes.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

6.0 DEMOLITION AND DISPOSAL

This operation is to be carried out by the customer.
Before demolishing the machine, you are advised to carefully check
its physical condition and ascertain whether there are any parts
of the structure that may be susceptible to structural collapse or
breakage during demolition.
The customer should operate in compliance with the environment
protection laws in force in his/her country.
The machine demolition operations should be carried out
by skilled personnel only, equipped with suitable protective
clothing (safety footwear and gloves) and auxiliary tools and
equipment.
All the disassembly operations for demolition should be
carried out with the machine stopped and detached from the
tractor.
Before demolishing the machine, you are advised to render harmless
all the parts that may be a source of danger and therefore:
- scrap the structure using specialized fi rms,
- remove any electrical apparatus according to the laws in force,
- collect oils and greases separately, to be disposed of through
specialized fi rms, in accordance with the regulations of the
country in which the machine was used.
When the machine is demolished the CE mark should be destroyed
together with this manual.
Last but not least, we remind you that the manufacturer is
always available for any and all necessary assistance and
spares.
