Safety advice concerning use

To prevent the risk of injury, read the safety instruc-
tions given in section "3" carefully.
This ensures the machine can only be used by fit and
healthy personnel, who are suitably trained and au-
thorised, and hold the appropriate category driving
licence for a tractor.
The tractor driver is responsible for assessing the
hazards associated with envisaged environmental
conditions, e.g., specific ground conditions (loose
soil, slippery, sloping ground, etc..) which require
special precautions, and it is up to the driver to take
the necessary measures to eliminate or reduce these
hazards.

Description of the controls

A) Lever: this is used to adjust the set up
of the dispenser(s) so that the seed-
lings are planted in the ground up-
right.
B) Handwheel: this adjusts the weight
on the packing wheels (see page 21).

Hitching and unhitching the work vehicle to and from the tractor

WARNING
Hitching the work vehicle up to the tractor is one of
the riskiest moments as it could required the involve-
ment of several people at once, carrying out synchro-
nised manoeuvres between the tractor driver and the
operators on the ground, which - if badly organised
- could result in accidents.

INFORMATION FOR USE
Make sure nobody and no animals are in the machine
work and manoeuvring area.
Before transiting on public roads, check that the trac-
tor/work vehicle assembly complies with highway
code regulations.
Check that the tractor exhaust gas is not emitted in
the direction of the work vehicle's operators.
To prevent serious personal injury, particularly to
children, never leave the tractor with the key in the
ignition and the machine off the ground.
UN41 0590GN
WARNING
The work vehicle must only ever be coupled to a
tractor with an appropriate power rating which is
equipped with a lift that complies with the regula-
tions in force, observing the maximum weight limit
on the rear axle and the gross vehicle weight (see
tractor user manual).
Assess whether ballast is required at the front of the
tractor to prevent it rearing up and losing stability
during driving.
Check that the work vehicle coupling to the tractor at
the third point of the hitch is securely locked so that
it cannot work loose.
