10.0 - COUPLING TO THE TRACTOR
10.1 - The machine must be coupled to the tractor on flat ground.
10.2 - Check that the three-point linkages are of a compatible category.
10.3 - Bring the tractor up to the machine, taking care not to get between the two at
this stage, and proceed with coupling only when the tractor is stationary. Fix the three
coupling arms with the relative pins and insert the appropriate safety split pins (fig. 4).
10.4 - Limit sideways movements and keep the machine parallel with the tractor,
using the stabilizer chains and arm adjustment device (fig. 5).
10.5 - Adjust the third point arm until the machine coupling is at right angles (fig. 6).
10.6 - If applicable, position the support foot as shown in fig. 7.
11.0 - UNCOUPLING FROM THE TRACTOR
-position the equipment on the ground, only in a flat area;
-lower the support foot, if applicable;
-make certain that the equipment remains stable;
-remove fixing pins and plugs, taking care not to get between the equipment and the
tractor;
-ensure again that everything is stable, bearing in mind all eventualities.
