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 infl uenced,
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 per-
sonal protection gear:
Overalls
38) Do not proceed with maintenance and cleaning if the power
take-off has not been disconnected fi rst, 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 ne-
cessary 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, fi tting, 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 spe-
cifi cations. Use only original spares.
