28) Before leaving the tractor, lower the implement coupled to the
lift unit, stop the engine, engage the hand brake, remove the
ignition key from the control panel, cover the cutters and outer
skid with the relative guards. Raise the mowing bar (transport
protection) in compilance with the instructions given in this
handbook.
29) It is absolutely forbidden to stand between the tractor and the
implement (Fig. 8) when the engine is running and the cardan
shaft is engaged without having fi rst engaged the hand brake
and placed a block or stone under the wheels to prevent them
from moving.
30) Always set the lift control lever to the locked position before
coupling or releasing the implement from the three-point cou-
pling.
31) The category of the implement coupling pins must correspond
to that of the lift coupling.
32) Take care when working near the lift links. This is a very dan-
gerous zone.
33) It is absolutely forbidden to stand between the tractor and the
implement when manoeuvering the lift control from the outside
(Fig. 8).
34) Fix the dide lift links with the relative chains and idlers during
the transporte phase; raise the cutter arm; fi x it in place with
the rod (A, Fig. 9); insert the safety hook (B, Fig. 9); cover
the cutters and outer skid with the relative guards; raise the
mowing bar; set the control lever of the hydraulic lift to the
locked position with the implement raised.
35) Only use the cardan shaft recom-mended by the Manufactu-
rer.
36) Frequently and periodically check the cardan shaft guard. It
must always be in an excellent condition.
37) Take great care of the guard, both in the transport and work
positions.
38) The cardan shaft must only be installed or dismantled whilst
the engine is off.
39) Take great care to ensure that the cardan shaft is correctly
assembled and safe.
40) Use the supplied latch to prevent the cardan shaft guard from
turning.
41) Before engaging the pto, ensure that there are no persons
or animals in the fi eld of action of the machine and that the
selected running rate corresponds to the permissible value.
Never exceed the recommended maximum rate.
42) Never engage the pto when the engine is off or in synchronism
with the wheels.
43) Always disengage the pto when the cardan shaft is set at an
excessively open angle (never beyond 10 degrees - Fig. 10)
and when it is not in use.
44) Only clean and grease the cardan shaft when the pto is di-
sengaged, the engine off, the hand brake engaged and the
ignition key removed.
45) Rest the cardan shaft on its stand when not in use.
46) Refi t the protective cap on the pto shaft after having dismantled
the cardan shaft.
47) Movements beyond the work zone must only occur when the
