Transport on Road
29) When driving on public roads, be sure to follow the highway
code of the country involved.
30) Any transport accessories must be provided with suitable
signs and guards.
31) It is very important to remember that road holding capacity as
well as direction and braking capacity can be influenced,
sometimes con-siderably, by equipment being either carried
or towed.
32) When taking a curve, calculate that the centrifugal force and
the centre of gravity will shift depending on whether equipment
is being carried or not.
33) For transport, adjust and fasten the lateral lifting arm chains
of the tractor; check that the seed and fertilizer hopper covers
are closed properly; lock the hydraulic lifting control lever.
34) Road movements must be performed with all tanks empty
35) For displacements beyond the work area, the equipment
must be placed in the transportation position.
36) Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports and
tables for signaling of dimensions.
37) When the dimensions of carried or partially-carried equipment
conceal the tractor's signalling and lighting devices, these
must also be installed on the equipment itself, in conformity
with regulations of the highway code of the country involved.
When in operation make sure that the lighting system is in
perfect working order. It is also important to remember that
the correct signalling sequence of the headlights includes
(Fig. 6):
A - Yellow direction indicator
B - Red position light
C - Red stop light

USE AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance in safety
During work and maintenance operations, use suitable perso-
nal protection gear:
Overalls
38) Do not proceed with maintenance and cleaning if the power
take-off has not been disconnected first, the engine power
off, the hand brake pulled and the tractor blocked with a
wooden block or stone of the right size under the wheels.
39) Periodically check that the bolts and nuts are tight, and if
necessary tighten them again. For this it would be advisable
to use a torque wrench, respecting the values of the Table 1.
40) During assembling, maintenance, cleaning, fitting, etc., with
the seeding machine raised, place adequate supports under
the equipment as a precaution.
41) The spare parts must correspond to the manufacturer's
specifications. Use only original spares.
