Tractor and Implement Safety


The tractor is a source of power - Mechanical and Hydraulic.
On its own, the tractor is of little practical value. Only when used in
conjunction with an implement or other attachment does it become a
working unit.
This instruction book is compiled to cover those safe working practices
that are associated with the base tractor operation.
It does not cover all operation and safety instructions relevant to all known
implements and attachments that may be fitted at the time of tractor
delivery or at some future date.
It is essential that operators use and understand the relevant instruction
manual of such implements and attachments.

SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Introduction to Safety
This safety section of your Operator Instruction Book is intended to point
out some of the basic safety situations which may be encountered during
the normal operation and maintenance of your FOOTSTEP (ROPS) or
CAB tractor, and to suggest possible ways of dealing with these situations.
This section is NOT a replacement for other safety practices featured in
other sections of this book.
Additional precautions may be necessary, depending on attachments
used and conditions at the work site or in the service area. The tractor
maker has no direct control over tractor application, operation, inspection,
lubrication, or maintenance. Therefore it is YOUR responsibility to use
good safety practices in these areas.

Safety
The safety of the operator is one of the main concerns in designing and
developing a new tractor. Designers incorporate as many safety features
as is possible in constructing our tractors. However, every year many
accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds thought
and a more careful approach to handling farm machinery and implements.
Read and practice the safety instructions detailed in the next pages of this
book.

A Word to the Operator


It is YOUR responsibility to read and understand the safety section in this
book before operating your tractor.
You must follow these safety instructions that take you step by step
through your working day.
Remember that YOU are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only
protect you, but also the people around you. Study the features in this
manual and make them a working part of your safety programme. Keep in
mind that this safety section is written only for this type of machine.
Practice all other usual and customary safe working precautions, and
above all - REMEMBER –SAFETY IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. YOU
CAN PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Use only SAME DEUTZ-FAHR approved attachments and equipment.

Follow a Safety Programme


For Safe Operation
For safe operation of an agricultural tractor, you must be a qualified and
authorized operator. To be qualified you must understand the written
instructions supplied in this Operator Instruction Book, have training, and
know the safety rules and regulations for the job.
Some regulations specify that no one under the age of 16 years, for
example, may operate power machinery. This includes tractors. It is your
responsibility to know what these regulations are, and obey them, in the
operating area or situation.
These will include, but are not limited to, the following instructions for safe
tractor operation.

WARNING: AN OPERATOR SHOULD NOT USE ALCOHOL OR


DRUGS WHICH CAN AFFECT HIS ALERTNESS OR CO-ORDINATION.
AN OPERATOR ON PRESCRIPTION OR ‘OVER THE COUNTER’
DRUGS NEEDS MEDICAL ADVICE ON WHETHER OR NOT HE OR
SHE CAN SAFELY OPERATE MACHINES.

General safety rules

– DO NOT allow children or


unqualified persons to ope-
rate your tractor. Keep ot-
hers away from your area of
work.

– Securely fasten your seat


belt when the tractor has a
ROPS (Roll Over Protective
Structure) frame in the
upright position or is fitted
with a cab.

– Before starting the engine,


check that all the tractor
controls are in neutral posi-
tion. This is to prevent acci-
dental movement of the
vehicle or the starting of
tractor-driven implements.

– ONLY operate the controls


when seated in the driver’s
seat.

XVII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– Always use the seat belt.


When used correctly, it can
help you drive in safety.
Ensure the belt is worn wit-
hout slack or twists, and that
is not caught on objects
near the seat or trapped un-
der the seat support.

– Before leaving the driving position, remember to lower the 3-point lin-
kage and/or any implement mounted on the tractor, to put all controls
in neutral, to apply the handbrake, to switch off the engine, to remove
the key from the ignition switch and to turn the battery earth switch to
“off” (where present).

– Where possible, avoid operating the tractor near ditches, emban-


kments and holes. Reduce speed when turning, crossing slopes, and
on rough, slippery, or muddy surfaces.

– Stay off slopes too steep for safe operation.

– Watch where you are going, especially at row ends, on roads, and aro-
und trees.

– DO NOT permit others to ride on the tractor or the implement unless


an approved passenger seat and seat belt is fitted.

– Hitch only to the drawbar and hitch points recommended, and never
above the centre line of the rear axle.

– Operate the tractor smoothly - no jerky turns, starts or stops. When the
tractor is stopped, apply the parking brake securely. Lower the imple-
ment and remove the key.

– DO NOT modify or remove any part of the equipment and DO NOT


use attachments unless they are properly matched to your tractor.

– For safety reasons, avoid very steep slopes. Change down through
the gears on both uphill and downhill slopes, especially with heavy lo-
ads. NEVER allow the tractor to freewheel with the clutch disengaged
or the gearbox in neutral.

XVIII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– ALWAYS travel at a speed that allows full control and stability of the
tractor. Avoid working near embankments and ditches. Reduce speed
when turning or driving on steep gradients, and when travelling over
ground that is loose, slippy or covered in mud.

– DO NOT travel on the road or at high speed with the differential lock
engaged, as this could cause steering problems and thus lead to acci-
dents.

– Before starting the tractor or PTO driven implements, ALWAYS check


that no-one is within the tractor/implement operating area.

– Only attach to the 3-point linkage those implements specifically desi-


gned for the purpose. Do not use the 3-point linkage as a towing hook.
For towing, use the rear towing hitch only (the front hook is for use in
emergencies only).

– ALWAYS check that the weight of the towed vehicle or trailer is less
than the weight of the tractor (unless equipped with independent bra-
king). Braking distance will increase with speed and the weight towed,
particularly on downhill slopes.

– Lock the oscillating towing hitch in a fixed position and use the safety
locks when travelling on the public highway. Display load warning
signs when necessary and in accordance with the applicable regula-
tions. It is the responsibility of the operator to know and comply with
the requirements of the highway code.

– Use emergency lights when travelling on the public highway, both in


daytime and at night.Use direction indicators before any turning ma-
noeuvre.Ensure that all the lights on the tractor are kept clean.

– Use the bolt provided to lock the two brake pedals together when tra-
velling on the road. This is to ensure more uniform and more effective
braking.

– All machinery driven by the PTO is a potential cause of serious and


even fatal injury. Ensure that the PTO and drive shaft guards are al-
ways in place. Before starting any work in the vicinity of the PTO shaft,
and before servicing/cleaning PTO-driven implements, put the PTO
control in the disengaged position, stop the tractor engine and wait un-
til all the moving parts of the implement have come to a complete
standstill.

XIX
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– Alighting from the driving position when the engine is running, altho-
ugh permitted in emergencies, creates a hazardous situation for
which additional precautions must be taken as regards the tractor and
any implements connected to it. In any case, before leaving the driving
position, make sure that all the safety devices are in place, that no-one
is in the vicinity of the tractor, that the tractor is parked on a level surfa-
ce, that the handbrake is applied and that all the drive control levers
are in neutral position. While alighting from the tractor, keep well clear
of any moving parts.

– NEVER operate the tractor


inside a building with the do-
ors closed. It is essential to
ensure that the area is suffi-
ciently ventilated.

– Fluids under pressure can


cause severe inj ur y.
NEVER use your hands to
trace an oil or fuel leak. Use
instead a piece of wood or
cardboard for this purpose.
Before disconnecting any
part of a normally pressuri-
sed circuit, always make
sure that the circuit is fully
depressurised. If engine oil,
hydraulic fluid or any fluid
from a pressurised circuit
penetrates your skin, seek
medical assista nce
IMMEDIATELY.

– DO NOT use explosive et-


her based products to facili-
tate cold starting. Follow the
instructions given in this
manual in the section “Cold
starting”.

– Incorrect connection of the battery terminals or between the battery


and a battery charger could damage the electrical system or even ca-
use the battery to explode. NEVER connect the battery terminals to-
gether. The acid electrolyte contained in the battery is highly corrosive
and can cause burns or even blindness if it enters the eyes. When fil-
ling/topping up a battery with electrolyte, NEVER smoke or allow a na-
ked flame in the vicinity and always wear safety goggles.

XX
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– DO NOT use elastic mate-


rials to pull the tractor, as a
sudden release of energy
stored in the material could
cause a fatal accident.

– NEVER attempt to weld or


repair a wheel or wheel rim
when fitted with an inflated
tyre.

– A runaway tractor can cau-


se serious or fatal injury.
Only start the engine when
seated in the driving posi-
tion and after checking that
all the drive controls are in
neutral. NEVER start the
engine from the ground or
by bypassing the electrical
safety system. If the starter
motor fails to operate when
all the controls are in neutral
position, contact your nea-
rest Assistance Service
centre.

– NEVER refuel the tractor


when the engine is running
or even hot. DO NOT smoke
when refueling. DO NOT fill
the fuel tank right to the
brim, but leave a little space
to allow for expansion of the
fuel. Refuel in a safe place,
away from naked flames or
sparks.

– NEVER allow anyone to


stand between the tractor
and the implement during
hitching operations.

– NEVER wear headphones or earphones to listen to the radio or music


while driving. This reduces your ability to concentrate and to hear so-
unds essential to safe driving.

XXI
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– Avoid contact with pesticides. Tractor cabs, when fitted, do NOT pro-
tect you against inhaling dangerous pesticides. Meticulously follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for using and handling pesticides.
Always wear the required personal protective equipment (respirator,
face mask, etc.) even in the cab.

– Certain tractor models are


equipped with speed mea-
surement radar. Even tho-
ugh these radar systems
emit only low intensity radio RA
waves, NEVER look directly DA
R

at the device when it is ope-


rating.

– Periodically check the wheel nuts and tighten them to the specified
torque. (See the Maintenance section for wheel nut torque values).

– The best way to transport a tractor that has broken down is to tow it
away on a flat bed truck. Always secure the tractor to the truck with
chains before driving off. If you must tow a tractor, do not exceed 10
km/h, and always have an operator at the tractor’s controls to steer
and brake as necessary. If necessary, ask your dealer if the model of
tractor you have can be towed or not.

– Do not weld or heat any painted parts. Toxic fumes could be given off.
Remove paint by abrasion first, before heating the part. Always per-
form these operations in a well ventilated area.

– Keep heat well away from


pipes and hoses containing
pressurised fluids. Heating
pressurised pipes and ho-
ses can cause inflammable
fluids to spray out and cau-
se serious burns to you and
others nearby.

XXII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Protective Structures
Roll Over Protective Structures
A Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and seat belt is fitted as standard
equipment to the footstep tractor at the time of factory assembly. If the
ROPS was removed by the original purchaser or has been removed, it is
recommended that you equip your tractor with a Roll Over Protective
Structure and a seat belt. ROPS are effective in reducing injuries during
overturn accidents.

Overturning a tractor without


ROPS can result in serious
injury or death.
If a fold down ROPS is installed
DO NOT wear seat belt when
the ROPS is in the folded down
position.

Operation
– Before using the tractor ensure that the ROPS frame is not damaged,
that it is securely fastened to the tractor and if a hinged section is fitted
that it is in the raised position and secured.

– If the ROPS has been removed from the tractor, or folded down for a
specific operation, it must be refitted or erected immediately after-
wards using the proper hardware and applying the recommended tor-
que values.

– DO NOT attach chains, ropes, or cables to the ROPS for pulling pur-
poses; this will cause the tractor to tip backwards. Always pull from the
tractor drawbar.

– Always wear your seat belt - adjusted snugly except when operating
with a folded down ROPS.

– Check the seat belt for damage. A damaged seat belt must be repla-
ced.

XXIII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Damage to the ROPS


If the tractor has rolled over or the ROPS has been damaged (such as
striking an overhead object during transport), the ROPS must be replaced
to provide the original degree of protection.
After an accident, check for damage to the ROPS, operator’s seat, seat
belt and seat belt mountings.
Before you operate the tractor, replace all damaged parts.

DO NOT WELD, DRILL, BEND OR STRAIGHTEN THE ROPS.


To do so reduces the protection it offer

Cab
The safety cab has been designed for fitment to this series of tractor and
meets all the legal requirements of cab safety and noise levels.

The safety cab conforms to the various international safety standards. The
cab must NEVER be drilled, or modified to install accessories or
implements . Welding components to the cab or repairing damaged
components is NOT PERMITTED. DO NOT attach chains or ropes to the
main frame of the cab for pulling purposes.

If additional controls or displays are to be added to the operator’s area


contact your Dealer for information as to how this can best be done.
The ROPS cab together with the seat belt is effective in reducing injuries
during overturn accidents. Wearing the seat belt is an important part of this
protection.

– Always wear your seat belt-adjusted snugly.

– Check the seat belt for damage. A damaged seat belt must be repla-
ced.

WARNING: IF THE TRACTOR HAS TO OPERATE IN AREAS WITH


RISK OF FALLING OBJECTS (LIKE IN MINES, ETC.), WHERE A FOPS
IS REQUIRED, PLEASE CONSIDER THAT YOUR TRACTOR,
EQUIPPED WITH ROPS SAFETY STRUCTURE (FRAME OR CAB), IS
NOT ALLOWED TO OPERATE IN THOSE AREAS.

XXIV
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Prepare for Safe Operation


Protect Yourself
Wear all the protective clothing and personal safety devices issued to you
or called for by job conditions. Don’t take chances.

You may need:


• A hard hat.
• Safety glasses, goggles, or face
shield.
• Hearing protection.
• Respirator or filter mask.
• Foul weather clothing.
• Reflective clothing.
• Heavy gloves (neoprene for che-
micals, leather for rough work).
• Safety boots.

Note where fire extinguishers and


first-aid or emergency equipment is
kept and get to know where to find help BASIC
FIRST

in a hurry. Make sure you know how to


AID

use this equipment.

DO NOT wear loose clothing, jewellery or other items and tie up long hair
which could entangle in controls or other parts of the tractor.

Risks from exposure to noise


The tractor and any implements attached to it constitute a source of noise
of which the intensity and frequency can be measured using the
appropriate instruments.
Anyone who uses the tractor must know that:
– exposure to excessive and/or prolonged noise can cause serious da-
mage, not just to the hearing but also to general health. The higher the
noise level (dbA) and the greater the duration of exposure, the higher
the risk. The combination of both these factors can be expressed in
the value LEP (level of personal exposure to noise).
– you therefore need to know the noise level generated by the tractor.
This information can be found in the Use and Maintenance Handbook,
under the chapter heading “Technical Data”.

XXV
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– the use of ear protection is essential when the noise level exceeds a
certain value and/or when operating the tractor for prolonged periods.
The point at which action is to be taken is generally when the level of
personal exposure LEP reaches or exceeds 85 dbA. Various types of
protection are available, including ear muffs, ear plugs and helmets.

Know Your Equipment


Know your tractor. Know how to
operate all equipment on your machine
and the implements and attachments
used with it. Know the purpose of all
the controls, gauges and dials. Know
the rated load capacity, speed range,
braking and steering characteristics,
turning
radius, and operating clearances.
Keep in mind that rain, snow, ice, loose
gravel, soft ground, etc. can change
the way your tractor operates.

Under poor conditions, slow down and be extra careful, engage


four-wheel drive, if fitted.

Study the DANGER, WARNING, or CAUTION safety signs on your tractor


and the information signs also.

READ THIS OPERATOR INSTRUCTION BOOK BEFORE STARTING


THE ENGINE.
STUDY IT BEFORE YOU START WORK.
IF THERE IS SO MET H I N G I N T H E MAN U AL YO U D O N ’ T
UNDERSTAND, ASK SOMEONE (such as your equipment Dealer) TO
EXPLAIN IT TO YOU.

IMPORTANT: This manual covers general safe practices for agricultural


tractors. It must always be kept with the tractor. For further copies contact
your Dealer.

Use all Available Protective and Safety Devices


Keep all protective devices in place and securely fastened. Make certain
all guards, shields and safety signs are properly installed, as specified,
and are in good condition.

XXVI
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

To help keep you and others around you safe, your tractor must be
equipped with:
– Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS), and seat belt.
– Tractor P.T.O. shield.
Your tractor may also need:
– Rear view mirror.
– Fire extinguisher.
– Hazard warning triangle.
High visibility reflective jacket.

– ROPS, FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure), protective enclo-


sure or protective screens. Remember FOPS are protection from light
falling objects and are not intended as protection from large falling ob-
jects such as large round bales or fence rails.

– SMV (slow moving vehicle) emblem, additional safety guards, lights


or decals and a back up alarm.

Know which devices are required for safe operation of your tractor. Use
them. Make sure they are in place and in good condition. DO NOT remove
or disconnect any safety device.

Check the Equipment


Before you begin your working day, take time to check your tractor and
ensure that all systems are in
good operational condition.
– DO NOT smoke while refu-
elling the tractor. Keep any
type of open flame away.

– Stop the engine and wait for


it to cool before refuelling.

– Check for loose, broken,


missing, or damaged parts.

– Have everything put into


good repair. Make certain all
safety devices are in place.

– Check ROPS and seat belt for damage. A damaged ROPS or seat belt
MUST be replaced.

– Ensure that implements and attachments are properly installed and


that the tractor and implement P.T.O. rev/min ratings match.
XXVII

If in doubt, contact your local
authority for advice.

XXIX
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Servicing the Tractor


– DO NOT service the tractor
while the engine is running
or hot, or if the tractor is in
motion.

– Before making adjustments


to, or servicing the electrical
system, disconnect the bat-
tery negative (-) cable first.

– To prevent fires or explo-


sions keep open flame
away from the battery or
cold weather starting aids.
To prevent sparks which co-
uld cause explosions use
jump cables according to in-
structions.

– When making repairs or adjustments it is recommended that you con-


sult your Dealer, and have the work carried out by trained personnel.

– The implement and/or tractor must be supported on suitable wooden


blocks or stands, NOT a hydraulic jack.

– Check all nuts and bolts periodically for tightness, especially wheel
hub and rim nuts. Tighten to the prescribed torque values.

– Check the brakes regularly, top up the reservoir and/or adjust where
necessary. Make sure that the brakes are evenly adjusted, especially
when using a trailer.

Starting
Warn Personnel before Starting
Before starting, walk completely around the tractor and any attached
equipment. Make sure that no one is under it, on it, or close to it. Let other
workers and bystanders know you are starting up and don’t start until
everyone is clear of the tractor, implements and towed equipment.
Ensure that all bystanders, particularly children, are a suitable distance
away before starting the engine.

XXX
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Mount and Dismount Safely


Always use ‘three point contact’ with the machine, and face the machine
when you mount it. (Three point contact means both hands and one foot or
one hand and both feet are in contact with the machine at all times during
mounting and dismounting).

Clean your shoes and wipe your hands before climbing on. Use handrails,
grab handles, ladders or steps (as provided) when mounting or
dismounting.

DO NOT use control levers as a


hand hold and never step on
foot controls when mounting or
dismounting.

DO NOT attempt to mount or


dismount from a moving tractor.
DO NOT jump off a tractor other
than in an emergency.

Start Safely

OVERLOADED TRACTOR, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO REDUCE THE
LOAD. KEEP ALL PARTS OF YOUR BODY INSIDE THE OPERATOR’S
COMPARTMENT WHILE OPERATING THE TRACTOR.

Making the Right Moves


Make sure your tractor is ready for the job it must do.
Know the rated load capacities of your tractor and never exceed them. Be
certain that any equipment or implements you intend to use DO NOT
exceed the load rating of your tractor. Be sure the tractor and implement
PTO speed match.

Keep in mind that tractors normally operate on uneven, unpaved, and


often bumpy or sloping surfaces. Operating conditions can reduce the
amount of weight you should carry or pull.

Follow Safe Operating Practices


– Operate the controls smoothly - don’t jerk the steering wheel or other
controls.

– DO NOT get on or off a moving tractor. Keep a firm grip on the steering
wheel at all times, with the thumbs clear of the spokes when driving
the tractor

XXXIII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– Make sure you have adequate clearance in all directions for tractor,
cab, ROPS and implement.

– DO NOT play games with a tractor or equipment.Use only for intended


purpose.

– DO NOT attempt to work the controls except from the operator’s , if


tractor is NOT equipped with proper passenger seat.

– DO NOT carry passengers, if tractor is NOT equipped with proper


passenger seat.

– Before dismounting, always disengage the P.T.O., lower all attac-


hments and implements to the ground, engage parking brake, shut off
the engine, engage the lowest gear (if mechanical transmission) and
remove the key. With hydraulic transmission or powershift transmis-
sion or powershuttle, ALWAYS chock the tractor wheels.

DO NOT touch, lean on, or


reach through any implement
mechanism or permit others to
do so.
Stay alert. Should something
break, come loose, or fail to
operate on your equipment,
stop work, lower equipment to
the ground, shut off the engine,
inspect the machine and have
repairs or adjustments made
before resuming operation.

Watch out for Others

– Be aware of what is going


on. DO NOT allow an untrai-
ned or unqualified person to

OPERATION ONLY (NOT DURING TRANSPORT). SUCH EQUIPMENT
MUST HAVE PROVISION FOR A SAFE RIDING AREA. DO NOT
ALLOW CHILDREN ON THE TRACTOR.

– Be certain you can control both speed and direction before moving.
Move slowly until you are sure that everything is operating properly.
After starting, recheck the steering, right and left. Be certain you have
full steering and brake control. If differential is locked, DO NOT opera-
te at high speed or turn the tractor until the differential lock is disenga-
ged.

– DO NOT lift a load over anyone.

– Keep others away from your operation. DO NOT allow anyone to


stand or pass under a raised implement.

– DO NOT lift objects that can not be contained in the bucket, get the ap-
propriate attachment. DO NOT allow anyone to stand on the ROPS or
fenders.

– When using a loader, avoid sudden stops, starts, turns, or change of


direction. Keep loads close to the ground when transporting.

– DO NOT stand (or allow anyone else to stand) in front of, under, or be-
hind loaded or loading equipment. DO NOT drive a tractor up to some-
one standing in front of a fixed object.

– Keep others away from universal joints, hitches, drawbar, lift arms,
P.T.O. drives, cylinders, belts, pulleys, and other moving parts. Keep
all shields and guards in place.

WARNING: DO NOT STAND, OR ALLOW ANYONE ELSE TO STAND,


BETWEEN THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT UNLESS THE ENGINE
IS TURNED OFF AND THE PARKING BRAKE IS ENGAGED, THE
LOWEST GEAR IS ENGAGED, THE KEY IS REMOVED, AND ALL
ATTACHMENTS OR IMPLEMENTS ARE LOWERED TO THE
GROUND.

SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

Risk of Overturning
For your safety, it is strongly
recommended that all footstep
tractors are fitted with Roll Over
Protective Structures (ROPS)
and seat belts.
In the event of an overturn with a
tractor fitted with a ca b or
ROPS, hold the steering wheel
firmly and DO NOT attempt to
leave the seat until the tractor
has come to rest. If the doors of
the cab are obstructed, leave
through the rear window or the
roof hatch.

To Avoid Side Overturns


– Set the wheel track at the widest setting suitable for the job being
done.

– Lock the brake pedals together before driving at transport speeds.

– Reduce speed to match operating conditions. If the tractor is equip-


ped with a front-end loader, carry the bucket and load as low as possi-
ble.

– Make wide slow turns at reduced speed. Don’t let your tractor bounce.
You may lose steering control.

– Don’t pull a load too heavy for your tractor. It could run away on the
down slope or the tractor could jack-knife around a towed load.

– Don’t brake suddenly. Apply brakes smoothly and gradually.

– When going down a slope, use the throttle to slow the tractor engine
and use the same gear range you would use to go up the slope. Shift
into gear before you start downhill.

– Engage four-wheel drive (if fitted).

– It is less likely that the tractor will overturn if you travel straight up or
down a steep slope rather than across it.

XXXVI
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– Avoid crossing steep slopes if possible. If you must do so, avoid any
holes or depressions on the downhill side. Avoid any stumps, rocks,
bumps or raised areas on the uphill side. When operating near ditches
and banks, always keep your tractor behind the shear line. Avoid dit-
ches, embankments and river-banks which might cave in.

– If it is necessary to cross a steep slope, avoid turning uphill, slow down


and make a wide turn. Travel directly up or down the slope, never
across it. When travelling up or down a slope, keep the heavy end of
the tractor on the uphill side.

– If when travelling across a slope with side mounted implements, keep


the implement on the uphill side.Do not raise the implements. Keep
them as low to the ground as possible when crossing a slope.

– When towing a load at transport speed or in the field, lock the drawbar
in the centre position and use a safety chain.

WARNING: DO NOT DISENGAGE THE CLUTCH OR ATTEMPT TO


SHIFT GEAR AFTER YOU HAVE STARTED DOWNHILL.

– DO NOT use your tractor to round up farm animals.

To Avoid Rear Overturns

WARNING: HITCHING TO THE REAR AXLE, OR ANY OTHER POINT


A B O V E TH E S W I N G I N G D R AW B A R , C A N C A U S E A R E A R
OVERTURN.

– DO NOT pull anything using the top link connection, or from any point
above the centre line of the rear axle. Always use an approved draw-
bar, and only use a drawbar pin that locks in place.

– High hitching can cause rear overturn, which may cause serious injury
or death. Hitch loads to the drawbar only.

– Only use a three-point linkage drawbar when stays are fitted to keep it
in the down position.

– Use front counterweights to increase tractor stability when towing a


heavy load or to counter balance a heavy rear mounted implement.

XXXVII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– Start forward slowly and gradually increase your speed. DO NOT rev
the engine or drop the clutch. If the tractor is attached to a heavy load,
or immovable object, improper clutching may cause overturn.

– If the front end of the tractor starts to lift, reduce your speed and, if ne-
cessary, disengage the clutch.

– If your tractor is bogged down in mud or frozen to the ground, DO NOT


attempt to drive forwards. The tractor can rotate around its rear whe-
els and overturn. Lift any attached implement and attempt to BACK
OUT. If this is not possible, tow it out with another vehicle.

– If you get stuck in a ditch, BACK OUT, if possible. If you must go for-
ward, do it slowly and carefully.

– A bare tractor or tractor with rear mounted attachments should be bac-


ked up the slope in reverse and travel forward downhill.

– A tractor with a loaded front-end bucket should be backed down the


slope and travel forward uphill.Keep the loader bucket as low as pos-
sible.

– Always keep the tractor in gear when going downhill. DO NOT permit
the tractor to coast with clutch disengaged or transmission in neutral.

General Operating Hazards

DANGER: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO UNPLUG THE HYDRAULIC


CONNECTIONS, OR ADJUST AN IMPLEMENT WITH THE ENGINE
RUNNING OR THE P.T.O. DRIVE IN OPERATION. TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN VERY SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

– Ensure that the P.T.O. shield is in place and that the P.T.O. cap is fitted
when the P.T.O. driveline is not in use.

– Before attaching, detaching, cleaning or adjusting P.T.O. driven imple-


ments, disengage the P.T.O., stop the engine, remove the key, and
make sure that the P.T.O. driveline has stopped.

– Ensure that all the P.T.O. driveline guards are in place and observe all
safety decals.

– Be sure everyone is clear of your machine before engaging the P.T.O..


For stationary P.T.O. operation, always place transmission in neutral,
engage parking brake, and chock both tractor and implement wheels.

XXXVIII
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– When operating mobile P.T.O. driven equipment, DO NOT leave the


tractor seat until the PTO drive is disengaged, the lowest gear is enga-
ged (if mechanical), the parking brake is engaged, the engine shut off
and the key removed.

– DO NOT use P.T.O. adaptors, reducers or extensions as they extend


the P.T.O. coupler and universal joint out beyond the protection offe-
red by the P.T.O. shield.

– The top link and lift rods must not be extended beyond the point where
threads begin to show.

– When using chemicals, carefully follow for use, storage and disposal.
Also follow the chemical application equipment manufacturer’s in-
structions.

– When operating under poor visibility conditions, or in the dark, use


your tractor field lights and reduce your ground speed. DO NOT use
your field lights when travelling on a roadway because rear pointed
white lights may be illegal except when reversing and may confuse fol-
lowing drivers.

– Operate your tractor with the wheels set at the widest setting possible,
consistent with the particular task you are performing. To adjust wheel
settings refer to Maintenance and Adjustment section.

– Reduce your speed when operating over rough or slippery ground


and when foliage restricts your view of hazards.

– DO NOT make sharp turns at high speed.

Implements and Attachments

WARNING: A FRONT-END LOADER (BUCKET OR FORKS) MUST BE


EQUIPPED WITH A SUITABLE RESTRAINING DEVICE TO PREVENT
THE LOAD (BALES, FENCE POSTS, ROLLS OF FENCE, WIRE ETC.)
FROM ROLLING DOWN THE LIFT ARMS INTO THE OPERATOR’S
COMPARTMENT AND CRUSHING THE DRIVER WHEN THE LOADER
IS RAISED. INADEQUATELY SECURED OBJECTS COULD ALSO
FALL AND INJURE BYSTANDERS.

– Three-point hitch and side mounted implements make a much larger


arc when turning than towed equipment. Make certain to allow suffi-
cient clearance for turning. Use only approved attachments and im-
plements.

– When using attachments or implements with the tractor, be sure to


thoroughly read the Operator Instruction Book for that attachment or
implement and follow its safety instructions.

XXXIX
SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL

– DO NOT overload an attachment or towed equipment. Use proper co-


unter-weights to maintain tractor stability. Hitch loads to the drawbar
only.
– A safety chain will help control drawn equipment should it be acciden-
tally separated from the drawbar while transporting. Using the appro-
priate adaptor parts, attach the chain to the tractor drawbar support or
other specified anchor location. Provide only enough slack in the cha-
in to permit turning. See your Dealer for a chain with a strength rating
equal to, or greater than the gross weight of the towed machine.

– Make sure any towed implements are equipped with a safety chain lin-
king tractor and implement.

– Pull only from the approved drawbar. Towing or attaching to other lo-
cations may cause the tractor to overturn.

– For towed equipment WITHOUT brakes, DO NOT tow equipment:


- at speeds over 30 km/h (19 miles/h);
- that, when fully loaded, weighs more than 1 times the weight of the
towing unit (please refer to local rules).

– For towed equipment WITH MECHANICAL brakes, DO NOT tow


equipment:
- at speeds over 30 km/h (19 miles/h);
- that, when fully loaded, weighs more than 1 times the weight of the
towing unit or 5000 Kg (please refer to local rules).

– For towed equipment WITH HYDRAULIC OR PNEUMATIC brakes,


DO NOT tow equipment:
- at speeds over 40 km/h (25 miles/h);
- that, when fully loaded, weighs more than 4 times the weight of the
towing unit, with a maximum of 20000 Kg (please refer to local rules).
– When parking tractor and towed trailer, engage the lowest transmis-
sion gear, engage parking brake, shut off the engine, remove the key
and chock both tractor and trailer wheels
– Stopping distance increases with speed and weight of towed loads,
and on hills and slopes. Towed loads with or without brakes that are
too heavy for the tractor or are towed too fast can cause loss of con-
trol. Consider the total weight of the equipment and its load.

SECTION III USE

Engine - first 100 work hours


The tractor is delivered to the customer ready for use under full power,
thanks to the exhaustive inspections to which the engine is subjected in
our testing rooms.

Nevertheless, FO R THE F I R ST 50 H O U R S' R U N N I N G, i t i s


recommended that the tractor not be run at maximum load for long periods
so as to enable the piston rings and the various moving parts to bed in
properly.

During this period we strongly advise to refrain from running the engine at
low r.p.m.s or high r.p.m.s for a long time when in neutral, as either
situation is harmful and would result in engine components becoming
bedded in such a way that MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE will not be
guaranteed.

IMPORTANT: THE SAFETY SEAL ON THE ENGINE GOVERNOR IS


APPLIED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND ENSURES THAT THE
POWER OUTPUT OF YOUR TRACTOR DOES NOT EXCEED THE
DECLARED AND APPROVED VALUE.ANY TAMPERING WITH THIS
SEAL ON THE GOVERNOR WILL VOID THE WARRANTY FOR THE

• During the first 20 hours' work do not use the engine with excessi-
vely high loads; use tractor under full load for gradually longer pe-
riods;

• Before stopping the engine, let it run for a few minutes at low idling
speed;

• The maintenance operations and checks listed below should be


performed most conscientiously:

during the initial engine oil level check frequently


work phase

at 50 hours change engine oil use recommended oil only;


and replace oil filter: before fitting the filter,
oil the sealing ring

DANGER: NEVER START THE ENGINE BY SHORT-CIRCUITING THE


STARTER ENGINE’S TERMINALS. THIS MAY CAUSE SUDDEN
TAKE-OFFS WHICH COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS TO THE
OPERATOR.

CAUTION: AFTER SOME HOURS OF HEAVY WORK, LET THE


ENGINE IDLE FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE STOPPING IT. THIS IS
TO PREVENT THE TURBINE FROM ROTATING THROUGH INERTIA
WITHOUT SUFFICIENT LUBRICATION.

SECTION III USE

Starting
Before operating the starter key you must:
– Switch off all the electrical equipment powered by the battery (lights, direction
indicators, blower, wipers, heating, air conditioning).
– Release the engine STOP control
– Move the controls of the rear PTO and front PTO (if present) to the
disengaged positions (indicator light off).
– Move the shuttle control lever to the neutral position.
To start the engine:

Insert the key in the starter switch and turn it to the symbol .
In this position the engine oil pressure and battery charging warning lights should
be illuminated.
The yellow warning light B of the electronic preheating control system may illumi-
nate in two different ways:
1 - A single brief flash, indicating that the engine may be started without activa-
ting the preheating system.
2 - Rapid continuous flashing, indicating the need to activate the preheating
system by pressing button A.
Starting without preheating:
– depress the clutch pedal to enable starting.
– start the engine by turning the key to position and pressing the
accelerator.
– once the engine has started, release the key, which will automatically return to
the position .
Starting with preheating (necessary at low ambient temperatures) :
– depress the clutch pedal to enable starting.
– activate the preheating system by briefly pressing button A.
– the yellow preheating light will stop flashing and remain steadily on for about
10 seconds.
– once the light has switched off, start the tractor by turning the key to the
position and press the accelerator.
– once the engine has started, release the key, which will automatically return to
the position .
At this point the electronic preheating control system will activate the post-heating
stage, which will be signalled on the yellow indicator light.
The post-heating stage terminates automatically when the yellow light switches off
finally.
If necessary (e.g.: persistent white smoke from the exhaust due to poor quality
fuel) once the engine has started, it is possible to activate a further post-heating
stage simply by pressing the button again (this operation can be performed at any
time when the engine is running regardless of whether or not the preheating stage
was activated previously) .

36
SECTION III USE

NB: the operator can interrupt preheating at any time by pressing the
button. To reactivate the system, you need to turn the key first to position
and then back to position .
WARNING: if the charge warning light (1 page 22) stays on after the
engine has been started, post-heating is not activated; accelerate the
engine by briefly pressing the accelerator pedal until the charge warning
light goes out.

A - Manual preheating control button


B - Preheating stage activation indicator light

Engine shut down


– If engine is exceptionally hot, allow it to idle for a few minutes.

– Put the gear lever in neutral; in the case of tractors with an electronic

regulator, turn the ignition key to position .


In the case of tractors with mechanical accelerators, operate the engi-
ne stop command until engine comes to a stop, then turn the ignition

key to position .
The engine stop command has a self-lock function; to unlock before
starting the engine, pull the lever located below.

37
SECTION III USE

Cold starting
Diesel engines are to be refuelled exclusively with diesel fuel of the type
normally commercially available and which conforms to the requirements
of the applicable standards.
In winter, when the temperature falls below 0° C (32°F), it is essential to
use only winter diesel fuel, which allows the engine to run correctly at
temperatures down to –20°C (-4°F).
If summer diesel fuel is used at low temperatures, the molecules of
paraffin contained in the fuel will be deposited on the filters which will
therefore become clogged and prevent the fuel from arriving at the
injection pump.
In certain countries, diesel fuel containing special additives is available
which are suitable for temperatures even below –20°C (-4°F).
If winter diesel fuel is not available (or if it is available but the temperature
is below –20°C (-4°F) kerosene (paraffin oil) may be added in the
percentages indicated in the diagram.

DANGER: START THE ENGINE, WITH THE STARTER KEY, FROM


THE OPERATOR’S SEAT ONLY. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START THE
ENGINE BY SHORTING ACROSS THE STARTER TERMINALS. THE
MACHINE WILL START IN GEAR IF THE NEUTRAL START CIRCUIT IS
BYPASSED. THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO
ANYONE IN THE VICINITY OF THE TRACTOR. ENSURE THAT THE
ENGINE STARTER SOLENOID COVER IS ALWAYS IN POSITON.

38
SECTION III USE

Emergency starting through auxiliary battery


N.B.: The auxiliary battery might also be on another tractor; in any case, it
is essential that it has the same rated voltage and the same number of
elements as the discharged battery.

Make sure the two vehicles are not in contact.


Disconnect all battery-fed equipment through the proper controlling devices.
Shift into neutral position.
Make sure the discharged battery is properly earthed (grounded), its
terminals are well tightened and the elctrolyte level is correct.

The following procedure should be observed:


• Connect both batteries as shown in figure.
• If the auxiliary battery is on another tractor, it is first necessary to
start this tractor by setting the engine to 1/4th of its idling speed.
• Start the tractor by means of the ignition key throughout the usual
procedure.

If the engine does not start the first time, repeat same operation after 15 to
20 seconds, i.e. with stationary starter, up to 3-4 times. Should the engine
not start once again, determine it is not due to engine's failure.

DANGER: MAKE SURE YOU CONNECT THE BATTERY TERMINALS


CORRECTLY. DANGER OF SHORT-CIRCUIT!

Battery connection through the suitable connecting cables.


A - Auxiliary battery
B - Discharged battery

39
SECTION III USE

WARNING: DO NOT DISENGAGE THE CLUTCH OR ATTEMPT TO


SHIFT GEAR AFTER YOU HAVE STARTED DOWNHILL.

Turbocharging

• For 70 - 90 - 100 HP
The turbocharging unit has the function of forcing more air into the
cylinders. this in turn proportionally increases the diesel fuel delivery
capacity.

The increase in fuel delivery capacity is done to obtain greater engine


power.

The turbocharger unit, of extremely simple and rational design, consists of


a turbine and a compressor.
The turbine is operated by the exhaust gases from the engine (this way,
part of the gases' kinetic energy which would otherwise be wasted is
recovered). The turbine drives the compressor, which compresses the air
aspirated through the filter into the cylinder intake duct.

WARNING

1 - Never race a cold engine.


Run the engine just above idling speed for a minute or two to let the oil
warm up progressively (the turbocharger is lubricated by the engine oil) so
as to ensure a perfect lubrication of the turbine.

2 - After some hours of heavy work, let the engine idle for a few minutes
before stopping it. This is to prevent the turbine from rotating through
inertia without sufficient lubrication.
Since the turbocharger rotates at very high speeds, (70.000 to 110.000
r.p.m.) under normal working conditions, even a few seconds of poor
lubrication may lead to irreparable damage.

40
SECTION III USE

Control pedals

1 - Clutch control pedal

Clutch control pedal


The clutch is operated by means of the pedal located to the left of the
driver's seat.
When disengaging the clutch the pedal must always be fully depressed
and the engine r.p.m. reduced.
Other than for short periods such as gear changing the clutch must not be
held depressed, always select "NEUTRAL" and engage the clutch.
When engaging the clutch , "IN GEAR", the pedal must be released
smoothly and carefully without excessive engine speed to avoid
excessive slippage.
After clutch engagement the pedal must be fully released and must not be
used as a "foot-rest".
Incorrect clutch operation will result in excessive clutch wear.

CAUTION: DO NOT REST YOUR FOOT ON CLUTCH PEDAL OR


PARTIALLY DEPRESS CLUTCH PEDAL. PREMATURE CLUTCH
WEAR WILL RESULT.

41
SECTION III USE

CAUTION: DO NOT DISENGAGE THE CLUTCH AND/OR PUT THE


GEAR IN “NEUTRAL” AFTER YOU HAVE STARTED DOWNHILL.

CAUTION: AVOID KEEPING THE CLUTCH PEDAL DEPRESSED


WHEN THE TRACTOR IS STATIONARY. SELECT NEUTRAL, EVEN
WHEN STOPPING FOR BRIEF PERIODS.

Brake control pedals


The tractor is equi pped w i t h
hydrostatically controlled, oil-immersed
disc brakes located on the rear halfshafts
upstream of the final reduction units and
in the 4WD hubs of the front wheels. The
front and rear brakes are operated
simultaneously by depressing the
pedals.
If the connecting bolt is released, the
right-hand brakes (front and rear) can be
operated separately from the left-hand
brakes.

WARNING: ON TRAVELLING DOWNHILL FOR A LONG TIME, DO NOT


USE CONTINOUSLY THE BRAKES, BUT USE ALSO THE ENGINE
BRAKING POWER, BY SHIFTING INTO LOW GEARS.

WARNING: DO NOT USE A SEPARATE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN THE


DIFFERENTIAL LOCK IS ENGAGED, AT HIGH SPEED, WHEN
TOWING A TRAILER.

CAUTION: INSPECT PERIODICALLY THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL IN


THE TANK. THE BRAKE FLUID TANK MUST BE ALWAYS FULL.

42
SECTION III USE

SECTION III USE

Electronic rpm control - hand throttle

Diagram of electronic rpm control


A - Electronic hand throttle
B - Accelerator pedal with potentiometer
C - Fuel injection control unit
D - Crankshaft rpm sensor
E - Electronic rpm control actuator

A lever located on the right hand cab frame upright acts as hand
accelerator control. This control allows you to increase or decrease
engine speed just like a traditional accelerator control, but also provides
additional functions:

– the pushbutton is used to memorise and recall maximum and mini-


mum working speeds;
– the same pushbutton can be used to maintain a constant engine spe-
ed for changing load conditions (ISOCHRONOUS).

The minimum engine speed is determined by the position of the stalk

Pedal control

The pedal control is permanently activated; the position of the pedal


corresponds to the rpm of the engine.
In the event of a speed being selected with the memory button, or the hand
throttle lever not being in the "minimum" position, depressing the
accelerator pedal will produce no response from the engine until the
position of the pedal corresponds to a speed higher than that selected with
the other control; thereafter, control reverts to the pedal.

44
SECTION III USE

Hand throttle
The engine responds to the movement of the hand throttle stalk and the
movement of the accelerator pedal in exactly the same way.

Memory button
This button controls two functions:
• "Isochronous" operation
(engine speed remains steady even under varying load conditions).
• Retrieval of memorized engine speed.

Electronic hand throttle


1 - Electronic hand throttle
2 - Memory pushbutton

When the ignition is turned on, the "Hold" indicator will be off and the speed
is as selected by operating the accelerator pedal or the hand throttle stalk.

If the button is pressed without holding (for less than three seconds):
• the engine speed previously memorized will be retrieved (as de-
scribed below)
• the "Hold" indicator lights up
• Isochronous operation
If the button is pressed and held for more than three seconds, with or
without the "Hold" indicator alight:
• the engine speed currently selected will be memorized
• the "Hold" indicator lights up
• the "Hold" indicator blinks for 1"
• Isochronous operation is activated
• memorized engine speed held steady.
If the button is pressed without holding (for less than three seconds) with
the "Hold" indicator alight:
• the engine will return to the revolutions corresponding to the posi-
tion of the accelerator pedal or the hand throttle stalk
• the "Hold" indicator goes out
• operation with rpm control offset.

CHAPITRE III UTILISATION

Gearbox controls
The transmission is composed of a synchronized gearbox with 4 to 5
gears and 3 speed ranges.
A shuttle, fitted as standard, allows forward or reverse travel to be selected
in any of the ratios without changing gear.

The gearbox is supplied in the following configurations:


– 12 forward and 12 reverse speeds
– 16 forward and 16 reverse speeds (with creeper)

SECTION III USE

Transmission speed selection


• Before trying to start the engine, shift the forward/reverse gear
control lever into neutral and turn the P.T.O. selection button onto
OFF. If the forward/reverse gear or P.T.O. are engaged the engine
will not start.

• Depress the clutch pedal and start the engine.


• Select one of the 3 speed ranges at your disposal (or 4 speed ran-
ges if a super-reduction gear is fitted) by means of the concerned
lever and shift into the desired gear.
The speed choice depends a great deal on soil conditions, imple-
ment used, work to be performed, etc.
In any case, always avoid using a gear which results in engine
overloading.

1 - Range selection levers

To check in a simple way if the engine is overloaded, it is suggested to


carry out the following test: keep the hand throttle at 1/4th of its travel, then
suddenly accelerate to maximum speed.

If the engine revs do not increase, but on the contrary decrease, this
means the engine is overloaded, then shift into a lower gear.
To make a correct choice we suggest you to consult the graph in the
SECTION VIII TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS.

49
SECTION III USE

Gearbox SYNCROPOWER
If the tractor is eq ui pped w i t h a
SYNCROPOWER gearbox, select the desired
forward speed by placing the electro-hydraulic

control either in or in position.


E E
This control is located on the gearshift lever.

When working with ingrounded implements or 1 2


in soils with variable consistency with a tractor
equipped with SYNCROPOWER gearbox, 3 4

select the forward speed w i t h t he

electro-hydraulic control on position.

This will permit, when selecting


position, to reduce the forward speed when a
sudden increase in draft effort occurs.

To change gear within the same range,


manoeuvre the gear lever after disengaging
the clutch.

To select speed range, disengage the clutch


(tractor stopped) and move range selector
lever.

productivity and significant saving of time and fuel costs.

51
SECTION III USE

WARNING: The forward-reversing gear unit control lever should only be used
when the tractor is fully stationary
The SYNCROPOWER gearbox offers the possibility of selecting either in version

or any chosen speed (through the use of the gearshift and speed range
levers) without using the clutch pedal, but by acting only on the electro-hydraulic
control located to the right of the gearshift lever.
This occurs by means of two multidisk clutches which work alternatively.
When shifting the lever to symbol the engagement of the hydraulically control-
led clutch is obtained, thus excluding the epicyclic reducer placed between the en-
gine and the gearbox.

When shifting the lever to symbol the hydraulically controlled clutch is disen-
gaged while the mechanically controlled one is engaged by means of Bellevil-
le-type washers. The mechanically controlled clutch engages the epicyclic
reducer (located downstream of the gearbox) thus obtaining a reduction of 17% on
all speeds and an increase in draft.
The SYNCROPOWER gearbox ensures power transfer from the engine to the
wheels, even when oil pressure is lacking and the hydraulically controlled clutch
(high speeds) is engaged.

In this case the mechanical clutch will be automatically engaged through the
reaction of the Belleville washers.
This also happens when, after stopping the tractor and the engine, the parking bra-
ke is applied. In addition, if the engine stops during a downhill ride, an automatic
speed reduction is obtained.

CAUTION! The above is


ONLY valid if the tractor is fit-
ted with a mechanical shuttle.
If the tractor is fitted with an
(optional) hydraulic shuttle,
there is no mechanical con-
nection between the wheels
and the engine. It is therefore
essential to secure the vehi-
cle with the parking brake and
with wedges under the whe-
els whenever possible.

Automatic engagement of the mechanicallycontrolled clutch through the Bel-


leville washers' reaction.
A - when stopping the tractor for parking
B - when the engine suddenly stops on rough terrain.

52
SECTION III USE

Rear and front differential lock (optional equipment on


platform models)
To diminish tyre slipping, the chief cause of compacting the surface of the
ground, the rear differential is locked at the same time as the front one.

The differential locks are ONLY to be engaged when travelling in a straight


line and before the wheels start to slip excessively.

Mechanical control (models with platform only)

The differential is locked by depressing


control pedal on the platform at right of
the driver.
The differential stays locked as long as
the pedal is pressed.
To unlock it, take your foot off the pedal.

Electro-hydraulic control

To engage the differential lock, push control button


(indicated on page 26) which remains in position and will
light up due to built-in pilot lamp.
Press button again to disengage the differential lock.

A special pilot lamp on the dashboard indicates the locking of the


differentials.

N.B. - Absolutely do not engage the differential lock while a wheel is


spinning excessively. In this case, depress clutch pedal before locking the
differentials.

WARNING: DO NOT ENGAGE THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK IN THE


FOLLOWING SITUATIONS: ON TRAVELLING AT SPEED ABOVE 15
KM/H, ON STEERING, WHEN THE TWO BRAKE PEDALS ARE NOT
LOCKED TOGETHER.

53
SECTION III USE

Front-wheel drive
Front-wheel drive allows for high work performance: during transportation
on steep slopes, when working with difficult soil conditions or when a high
draft effort is required.

Mechanical control (models with platform only)

Front wheel drive can only be


engaged when the tractor is
stationary. Pull upwards on
the lever on the left of the
driver ’s seat indicated by
arrow A.

To disengage push same


lever downwards.

A
Electro-hydraulic control
The tractor may be equipped with an optional electrohydraulic system
with pushbutton control (see figure on page 25). When pressed, the
pushbutton locks in position and the integral indicator light illuminates.

To disengage, press the pushbutton a second time and the


indicator light will be extinguished.

The front-wheel drive can be equipped with differential lock as an option.

IMPORTANT - It is advised to use the front-wheel drive when performing


transport operations on a road only if the tractor is subjected to a high draft
effort. This is in order to prevent premature wear of the tires.

WARNING : Engagement and disengagement of the front-wheel drive can


be done only when the tractor has stopped completely.

54
SECTION III USE

Separate brakes valve


This valve allows braking on the rear wheels only when the brake pedals
are operated separately. This prevents skidding of the front wheel during
separate braking and thus helps avoid damage to crops.
This valve also permits:

Braking on all four wheels


When both pedals are linked
together and operated
simultaneously.
For transport, transfers
between fields and when
working on slopes.

Braking on the two inner


wheels only
For minimum turning radius

“ECONOMICAL P.T.O. 750 r.p.m.”


The tractor is equipped with an “ECONOMICAL” type, 750 r.p.m. P.T.O.

With implements designed to operate at 540 r.p.m. and when working in


not excessively heavy soil, it may be that less power than the maximum
available is required.

In these cases, if the power absorbed by the implements is at least 10%


lower than the maximum tractor power, the use of the “ECONOMICAL”
type P.T.O. is recommended, since with a decisively lower engine r.p.m.
the implemente revolution speed and work performances remain
unchanged.

CAUTION: WHEN OPERATING STATIONARY P.T.O. DRIVEN


EQUIPMENT (FOR EXAMPLE WATER PUMP, ETC.), DO NOT LEAVE
THE TRACTOR SEAT UNTIL ALL GEAR LEVERS ARE IN “NEUTRAL”,
THE PARKING BRAKE IS FULLY ENGAGED, THE CAB DOOR
LOCKED WITH THE KEY AND THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT
WHEELS ARE CHOCKED.

CAUTION: WHEN USING THE GROUNDSPEED PTO, REMEMBER


THAT WHEN YOU DRIVE THE TRACTOR IN REVERSE GEAR, THE
DIRECTION OF ROTATION OF THE PTO SHAFT WILL ALSO BE
REVERSED. THEREFORE, WITH CERTAIN IMPLEMENTS IT IS

Lever with yellow knob: used for raising and lowering the implement and
for determining the desired working position when working with position
control.
The action range of the yellow lever is indicated by the blue sector (labeled
“Position”).
The sector in which the lever operates is provided with a stop knob which
limits its travel in such a way that the same working position can be
repeatedly located.

Lever with green knob: automatically controls the desired working depth
in relation to the resistance met by the implement in the ground.
Its action range is indicated by the green sector with a numbering interval
from 0 to 12, and by the red sector (labeled “FLOAT”).
This lever is also provided with a stop knob which limits the lever’s travel in
such a way that the same desired working depth can be obtained every
time.

WARNING: NEVER TOW IMPLEMENTS USING LOWER LINK ARMS.


PULL ONLY FROM THE APPROVED DRAWBAR OR TOW HITCH.
TOWING OR ATTACHING TO OTHER LOCATIONS MAY CAUSE THE
TRACTOR TO OVERTURN.

63
SECTION III USE

Raising and lowering the implement


To raise the implement, pull the yellow lever backwards, until the desired
height is achieved.
To lower the implement push the yellow lever forwards close to the limit of
the bleu sector.
The green lever should be positioned on No. 12 of its own sector.

Transporting with raised implement


The yellow lever must be pulled backwards all the way.
The green lever must be placed on No. 12 of its own sector.

Working with position control


(rotary harrows, cultivators, manure spreaders, etc.)
Place the green lever on No. 12 of its own sector.
Move the yellow lever along the bleu sector until the desired working
position is reached, setting its travel with the adjustable stop screw to
return on the next run to the same working position.

Working with draft control


(ploughs, rippers, trenchers, etc.)
Push both levers down (FLOAT sector) so as to obtain quick implement
sinking into the ground: move the yellow lever along the sector until the
desired working depth is reached, then move the green lever along the
sector to obtain the desired draft control: lock both levers in place with the
special stop screw so as to obtain the same working depth during
successive runs.

Working with surface and underground implements with simultane-


ous draft and position control - Mix control
When working with soil of variable conditions, to prevent the implement
from sinking more than necessary in terrains of minor consistency, the
power-lift control levers should be positioned in such a way to obtain both
implement effort and position control.
For mixed control, start work and position the levers as described in "draft
control work", then move the yellow lever backwards along the sector
(yellow and green) until lifting commences; move the lever slightly forward
again (1-2 mm / 0.0394-0,0788 in) to immobilise the implement in position.

64
SECTION III USE

Working with floating position


(e.g. sowing machine)
When the implement is to follow the ground contours, push both yellow
and green levers in the red sector (FLOAT).
The green lever may be in any of the positions included between No. 6 and
No. 12 of its own sector.
At the beginning and end of each row act only on the yellow lever to raise
and lower the implement.

IMPORTANT - Whenever brackets are used to fasten the lower lifting


arms, the yellow lever of the lifting system should remain in the red sector
and for no reason should it be moved to the blue sector.

Ground control to connect implements

Pulling the control upwards


or downwards, the lift arms
rise or lower, thus making it
possible to connect the
implement.
NB: Operate the lift control,
keeping out of range of the
lift arms and any coupled
implements. This is to avoid
being hit if mistaken
manoeuvres are made.

65
SECTION III USE

Warning- the implements must always be lowered to the ground


whenever the trqctor is not operating or when adjustment, maintenance or
repair operations are to be carried out.

Ajustment of power-lift sensitivity


The power-lift’s sensitivity when “working with draft control” can be
adjusted by acting on lever 1 .
Bringing the lever towards the “ + ” sign increases the sensitivity, while
bringing it towards the “ - ” sign decreases the sensitivity.

Adjustment of implement’s lowering speed


The implement’s lowering speed is controlled by acting on tap 2. In
addition, locking the tap all the way will act on the power lift’s hydraulic
block.
This must be done whenever transporting mounted implements a long
way on public roads.

66
SECTION III USE

Front hydraulic power-lift

Upon request, the tractor can be fitted with a front power-lift.

Engagement occurs by means of two hydraulic cylinders actuated by an


electro-hydraulic control (fig. 29) located under the steering wheel.

The control operates a single-acting distributor located in the rear part of


the tractor.

Said control permits an electro-hydraulic position control.

A special valve dampens the overloads so that the position control regains
the implement’s height.

67
SECTION III USE

Three-Point hitch
The hydraulic 3-point linkage serves to attach mounted implements to the
tractor. It is equipped with:
– category II (can be converted into category I);
– quick-hitch couplers on the ends of the lower links;
– adjustable levelling box on right-hand lift rod;
– lateral stabilizers.

¥
Lifting rod adjustment
Used to vary the im pl ement ’s

¥
Rotate the handle on the links clockwise
to shorten its and counterclockwise to
lengthen its.
There are two types of lower link
• with fixed end;
• with automatic end couplings with
removable swivel ball.

Top link adjustment


The length of the top link (or 3rd
implement hitching point) can be
adjusted to give the implement a
suitable angle of incidence with respect
to ground level.
By shortening the top link, the ground
incidence increases, while lengthening
it decreases the incidence.
To adjust the length of the sprag, unlock
the ring nut A and turn the body B to A
reach the required length, then tighten
the ring nut A.
As a rule, with lower links in horizontal B
position, the top link’s rear part should
slant upwards.
The distance between lower links and
top link should never be lower than 510
mm (20 in) for class II version, 460 mm
(18,1 in) for class I version.

CHAPITRE III UTILISATION

Three-point hitch with right tie rod and stabilizers with


hydraulic adjustment

The adjustable rod consists of a dual-acting hydraulic cylinder, while the


stabilizers are single-acting hydraulic cylinders.

The adjustment control system is equipped with an oil flow deflector, which
determines the oil to be supplied to either the rod or the stabilizers through
the action of a push-button (3) controlled solenoid valve.

After pressing on the solenoid valve control button, thus causing the oil to
flow either towards the rod or the stabilizers, it is posssible to vary the
position the rear 3-point hitch by actuating the hydraulic distributor (1).

SECTION III USE

To connect the implement to the lower links it is first necessary to place the
hydraulic control distributor into the FLOAT position.
When the stabilizers are in this position, they permit the lower links to be
moved freely both with engine running and with engine turned off.

In addition, when the hydr. distributor is in FLOAT position, all those works
requiring the implement to freely follow the terrain contours can be easily
performed.

WARNING: When shifting from the FLOAT position to the working position
under lower link horizontal displacement control, it is required the
stabilizer hydraulic cylinders be filled with oil by moving the distributor
lever into positions 1 and 2 for a few seconds. Afterwards adjust the lower
link position as necessary.

SECTION III USE

Nomenclature

Directional control valve:

A valve that can be operated to control the flow of oil from a pressurised
circuit to an outlet port. There are three main types of directional control
valve: SINGLE-ACTING (no longer used), DOUBLE-ACTING and
DOUBLE/SINGLE-ACTING.

Double-acting control valve:

When the control lever is moved in one


direction, the control valve spool shifts to Neutro
allow pressurised oil to flow out through one
port and return through a second port. When 1 0 2
the control lever is moved in the opposite
direction, the direction of flow is reversed. Abbassamento Sollevamento
The control lever has 3 positions: pressure
port 1, neutral 0, pressure port 2.

Double/single-acting control valve:

This valve is like the double-acting valve described above, but can be
converted into a single-acting valve by way of a screw. When operating in
single-acting mode, the valve is connected to the implement by a single
hose connected to the pressure port 1; this hose serves as both the
pressure and return line (when the control lever is in the “return” position).
The control lever still has 3 positions: pressure 1, neutral 0 and return.

Double/ single acting

Conversion to single-acting - Detent


Turn the screw A to one port of Kick-out +N.R. FLOAT
the control valve which i s A
permanently connected to the
tank return line, so that the
other port may be used for both
pressure and return.

75
SECTION III USE

DETENT device:

Mechanical detent that engages the control


valve spool when it is moved to a certain
position at the end of its stroke. The spool
1 0 2 Detent
can only be released manually by operating
the control lever.
If the spool is not equipped with a DETENT,
the control lever will always return to the
centre position (NEUTRAL) when released
by the operator

KICK-OUT device:

Mechanical detent that engages the control


Kick-out valve spool when it is moved to a certain
1 0 2 position at the end of its stroke. The spool is
released automatically when the pressure
reaches the spring calibration value (about
130 bar). The control lever automatically
returns to the neutral position.

FLOAT device:

Device that allows the two ports to be


connected simultaneously to the tank return
1 0 2 Float line, thereby allowing the implement to
move up and down and follow the contours
of the terrain.
The control lever has four positions:
pressure 1, neutral 0, pressure 2, Float.

76
SECTION III USE

Non-return valve (check valve):

Mechanically operated check valve that


prevents leakage past the control valve NR 1 0 2
spool and thus undesired operating of the
hydraulic rams.

FLOW DIVIDER:

Allows the oil flow ra t e t o be set ,


independently of the pressure, in a certain
port of the double-acting control valve.

WARNING: DO NOT STAND OR PASS UNDER HYDRAULICALLY


LIFTED LOADS.

77
SECTION III USE

Types of auxiliary hydraulic service control valve

The double-acting auxiliary hydraulic distributor enables operation with


external, hydraulically operated implements.
The controls consist in 2 or 3 handles located on the driver’s right or under
the steering wheel. These levers are equipped with locking controls; turn
the control outwards to lock the levers in position, and turn inwards to
release them.

Auxiliary hydraulic distributors:


– Version 1 :2 - ways (2 ways double- acting changeable into single-
acting and equipped with detent)
– Version 2 : 4 - ways (2- ways double- acting and 2 ways double-
acting changeable into single- acting and equipped with detent and
float)
– Version 3 : 6 - ways ( 2- ways double- acting changeable into single-
acting and equipped with detent - 2- ways double- acting changeable
into single- acting and equipped with KICK- OUT - 2- ways double-
acting equipped with FLOAT ).
– Version 4: 10-ways (version 3 + 4 ways located on the right-hand
side of the tractor, two double-acting ways and two double-acting
ways that are convertible to single-acting and equipped with detents).

N.B: operation of the auxiliary control valve excludes operation of the


hydraulic lift (with the exception of the “FLOAT” position).

WARNING: Move the control lever to neutral position as soon as the outer
hydraulic cylinder completes its travel to avoid holding the peak pressure
inside the hydraulic circuit for long, thus avoiding dangerous strains.
The levers should always stay in neutral position whenever the hydraulic
distributor is not being used.

78
SECTION III USE

The controls
The manual controls of the auxiliary services control valve consist of two
control levers for the 4-way; three levers for the 6-way.

These control levers are located to the right of the driver and have three
positions. Only the double-acting control valves with a FLOAT position has
a total of four positions.

79
SECTION III USE

The control levers and their corresponding rear (or front) hydraulic
couplers are numbered (from 1 to 3 in the case of 6-way control valves)
for easy identification.

For double-acting control valves:


If the control lever is pulled back (control lever number on RED
background), oil is sent under pressure to the upper service coupler with
the same number (RED background). The oil returning from the
implement ram can drain to tank through the lower service coupler with the
same number (YELLOW background).

If the control lever is pushed forward (control lever number on YELLOW


background) oil is sent under pressure to the lower service coupler with
the same number (YELLOW background). The oil returning from the
implement ram can drain to tank through the upper service coupler with
the same number (RED background).

82
SECTION III USE

As mentioned previously, each lever will have 3 or 4 positions:

• UP
• NEUTRAL
• DOWN
• FLOAT
(Only for double-acting valves
with FLOAT position)

Fig. 3 - Direction of oil flow with control lever


in lifting position - RED

The control lever will only stay in position when released if the control
valve is equipped with the DETENT or KICK-OUT device. Otherwise the
lever will be returned to neutral position by a spring.

• NEUTRAL: move the control lever to its INTERMEDIATE


POSITION to shut off the oil flows both to and returning from the
lifting cylinder.
• LIFTING: move the control lever BACK to extend the cylinder and
raise the implement.
• LOWERING: move the control lever FORWARD to retract the
cylinder and lower the implement. In the case of a double-acting
control valve, the implement lowering action is controlled hydrauli-
cally, while in the case of a single-acting valve the lowering action
is determined by gravity and the return flow of oil.

• FLOAT: move the control


lever forward beyond the
lowering position to the flo-
at position to allow the
cylinder to extend or re-
tract freely and thus allow
the implement to follow the
contours of the terrain.

Fig. 4 - Control lever in FLOAT position

83
SECTION III USE

In the case of diggers, shovels


and loaders, moving the control
lever to the float position will
allow the cylinder to move
freely and thus the bucket to
f ol l ow t he cont our s of t he
terrain.

N.B.: float position may also be used to lower the tipping body of a trailer
when the ram is operated as a single-acting cylinder. In this case it is
essential that the control valve is first converted to single-acting.

IMPORTANT: In the case of control valves not equipped with a Kick-out


valve, do not continue to hold the control lever in position when the
implement cylinder has reached the end of its stroke in order to avoid
prolonged operation of the pressure relief valve. This could cause the oil to
overheat and cause damage to the hydraulic system and transmission.

N.B.: on our tractors, the auxiliary services and the hydraulic lift are supplied
by the same hydraulic circuit. Therefore it is not possible to operate the auxi-
liary service control valve and the lift simultaneously.

DANGER: ON CONNECTING THE HYDRAULIC LINES OF THE


IMPLEMENT TO THE HYDRAULIC LINES OF THE TRACTOR,
ALWAYS FOLLOW CAREFULLY THE INSTRUCTION SHOWN ON THE
TRACTORS DECALS OR DESCRIBED INSIDE THIS MANUAL.
WRONG CONNECTIONS OF THE HYDRAULIC LINES BETWEEN
IMPLEMENT AND TRACTOR COULD CAUSE UNEXPECTED
MOUVEMENTS IN THE IMPLEMENTS, WITH SERIOUS RISK OF
PERSONAL INJURY.

84
SECTION III USE

89
SECTION III USE

Operation of hydraulic devices that require a constant flow of oil (e.g.


hydraulic motors)

A
These devices must be operated using a double-acting control valve
equipped with a KICK-OUT device (or DETENT).
The connection must be made by connecting the pressure line A to the
corresponding lower service coupler for the control valve, while the return
line B must be connected to the upper service coupler.
The motor is operated by pushing the control lever forward (lowering
position - YELLOW).
To stop the oil flow, first move the control lever to the FLOAT position, until
the motor has slowed down and come to a complete stop. Then move the
control lever to the neutral position.

WARNING: to stop a motor, do not move the control lever immediately to


the neutral position, as the back pressure generated could damage the
hoses if the motor is not equipped with safety valves.

Use the control valve with FLOW DIVIDER to regulate the oil flow rate to
obtain the required speed of the hydraulic motor.
Fit an oil temperature sensor and, if necessary, an oil cooler.

The maximum permissible temperature is 110°C (230°F).

90
SECTION III USE

Directional control valve with lateral hydraulic ways


On request, the tractor can be fitted with a 4-way hydraulic control valve (2
double-acting, convertible to single-acting).
The hydraulic ways are located on the left-hand side of the central part of
the tractor.
The control levers are on the right-hand side, under the instrument panel.

Hydraulic control valve levers

ATTENTION - Move the control levers back to neutral position as soon as


the outside hydraulic cylinder completes its stroke to avoid holding the
peak pressure inside the hydraulic circuit for long. This is in order to
prevent dangerous stresses.

When the auxiliary hydraulic distributor is not in use, its levers should
always remain in neutral position.

N.B. Auxiliary hydraulic control valve has priority over three-point hitch
valve. Three-point hitch will not operate when auxiliary control valve is in
raise or lower position.

91
SECTION III USE

Class “A” drawbar (optional)


Swinging drawbar of the type commonly used for towing agricultural
implements, for trailers with more than one axle and consequently with low
vertical load.
To facilitate trailer attachment, the drawbar consists of a swinging bar with
horizontal adjustment.

• The drawbar is normally attached to the tractor under the tran-


smission case using the middle hole (A) of three holes in the end
of the bar.
The bar can also be inverted to adjust the height from the ground.

The towing hitch is used for towing agricultural implements and
road-going trailers with one or more axles.
Various types of towing hook are available on request, depending on the
national market.

To facilitate trailer attachment, the towing hitch can be fixed at different


heights from the ground.

N.B. - the maximum permissible hitch load (for single-axle trailers), the
maximum permisible hitch height for road use (for trailers with one or more
axles) and the maximum trailed load are indicated in the tractor
registration document.

Any problems resulting from failure to observe these operating limits shall
be responsibility of the user.

CAUTION: ALL IMPLEMENTS MOUNTED TO THE TRACTOR MUST


BE SAFELY ATTACHED.

DANGER: BE SURE EVERYONE IS CLEAR OF THREE POINT HITCH


BEFORE STARTING ENGINE. LOWER THREE POINT HITCH AND
STOP ENGINE BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS, MAINTENANCE
OR REPAIRS.

WARNING: A FRONT-END LOADER (BUCKET OR FORKS) MUST BE

SECTION III USE

Ventilation

The ventilation unit is housed in the cab ceiling.

To switch it on and adjust it, turn the electrical fan


switch to the desired speed.

When the ventilation system is on, a slight pressurization is created inside


the cab. This forces the air flowing into the cab to pass through the filter
placed behind the front grille.

The fan switch can be operated only after the ignition key is inserted.

The air flow can be regulated and directed by suitably positioning the air
diffusers 5-6.

SECTION III USE

Air can be taken in fresh from outside or recirculated from within the cab by
way of the relative side inlets 7-8.

Recirculation inlets fully closed: air is taken in entirely from outside the
cab through the rear grille and filtered through a paper element positioned
behind the grille.

Either fully or partially open air recirculating grille: now the air is
recirculated inside the cab.

N.B. - It is very important that the air diffusers never be completely closed
so as to allow for a steady air flow.
To obtain a greater pressurization inside the cab, it is necessary to take the
air from the outside, therefore the inside air recirculating grille should be
fully closed.

Heating system
The heater is switched on and adjusted by rotating the control knob at the
roof console, then switching on the blower and setting the selector at the
preferred speed.

To warm the cab up quickly, the knob should be rotated fully clockwise and
the blower set to speed III.
The screen is demisted or defrosted by air directed
through a slot ven. For defrost or fast demist, all other
vents should be closed off.

IMPORTANT: ventilation is provided by a single


blower unit serving both the heating system and the
air-conditioning system.

After reaching the desired temperature adjust the


system to suit your needs.

N.B. - For ideal system operation, the engine must run at 1600 r.p.m.

105
SECTION III USE

WARNING:

• Before starting the engine, make sure the system is off (by turning
off the ventilation fan) so as not to overload the battery.

• After using the system at full power for a long period of time, never
turn it off suddenly but let it first idle for about 20 seconds.

• If the air does not come out from the diffusers right away as soon
as the system is started, turn off immediately and identify the fault.

• N.B. Never turn on the heating system when working in dusty envi-
ronments.

WARNING: ALWAYS USE THE 100% OF PERMANENT TYPE

SECTION III USE

System controls
The air conditioning system can only operate when the engine is running
and after having switched on the electric fan.

The system provides fresh and dehumidified air.

Operating

Rotate the knob and set to the required speed:

then rotate the air conditioning potentiometer,


bearing in mind that a clockwise rotation causes a
progressive temperature decrease inside the cab.

To improve system efficiency, part of the conditioned air let into the cab is
aspirated from the cab interior.

Flow is proportioned by adjusting the amount of air admitted into the


recirculation inlets. This permits the air volume aspirated into the cab to be
properly regulated in a proportion of 5-15%.

To cool the cab it is suggested to:


– Fully open the pivotable air diffusers;
– Turn the electric fan control and the potentiometer all the way;
– Open the cab doors a few seconds to let the warm air flow out, in case
the tractor has been exposed to the sun for long;
– Use the system regulating potentiometer to reach the desired
temperature.

After a few minutes the small sight glass placed above the dehydrating
filter should be transparent and free of bubbles.

If not, turn the system off and consult our skilled personnel.

Tractors are delivered with disc wheels – non-track-adjusting – or
track-adjusting wheels – at option. Depending on the size of the tires, you
can choose among up to eight different track widths.
Furthermore, bear in mind the international ruling providing that the
distance between the outer edge of the illuminated face of direction
indicators, position lights, tail lights and top rear reflectors and the outer
edge of the tires should not exceed 400 mm (15.76 in).
Any maximum track widths which may be specified in the vehicle

Tyre inflation pressures

– Tyres for front 2WD: 2.3 bar (33 psi)


– Tyres for front 4WD: 1.6 bar (23 psi)
– Rear tyres: 1.3 bar (19 psi)

For the tyre bead to seat correctly on the rim, the inflation pressure must
never exceed 5 bar (72.52 psi). Higher inflations pressures may cause the
tyre/rim to explode.
We recommend the use of metal safety cages or tyre restraint bars when
carrying out operations that require tyre inflation pressures above the
values for normal use.

WARNING: FOR THE TYRE BEAD TO SEAT CORRECTLY ON THE


RIM, THE INFLATION PRESSURE MUST NEVER EXCEED 5 BAR (72
PSI).
HIGHER INFLATIONS PRESSURES MAY CAUSE THE TYRE/RIM TO
EXPLODE.
WE RECOMMEND THE USE OF METAL SAFETY CAGES OR TYRE
RESTRAINT BARS WHEN CARRYING OUT OPERATIONS THAT
REQUIRE TYRE INFLATION PRESSURES ABOVE THE VALUES FOR
NORMAL USE.

IMPORTANT - When working on agricultural land in conditions requiring


maximum grip, the rear tyre inflation pressure may be reduced to a
minimum of 0.8 bar (11.60 psi). The normal inflation pressures for front
and rear tyres are those reported in the specifications table. These values
may be reduced proportionally to the permitted limits when necessary to
ensure a correct mechanical match between the front and rear wheels.

Narrow track

– at rear
Depending on the given tire size, not all of the shown track widths are
suitable for your tractor, as tire and fender may interfere. When selecting
the track width, make sure that there is adequate clearance between
fender and tire.

– at front
If you combine a narrow front axle track width with wide tires, watch out
that this does not block too much the steer angle. Check the distance
between engine hood and fenders. For this purpose, turn front wheels
against lock, then move front wheels up and down and let axle swing.

117
SECTION IV WHEELS

Running direction of tires


Tyres must always be fitted so
that the tread pattern is oriented
correctly with respect to the
direction of forward travel. In the
case of wheels where the rim is
welded to the wheel disc, the left
and r i ght w heel s may be
swapped over to alter the track
width; in all cases, however, the
V-shaped tread pattern must
always point towards the front of
the tractor, as shown in the figure
above.

Note: approved tyre combinations: in each market, only the approved


combinations for the specific zone are available.

Adjusting steering stops


After every change of the front tyres, check the steering angle.

Procedure:

A Operate parking brake


Additionally secure tractor against
rolling (wheel chock)
A A In the case of tractors with suspen-
ded front axle, disconnect front axle
suspension
Jack up tractor at its front
A A Turn steering wheel (to left and
right).
Adjustment of the steering angle.

When the front axle is in the condition of maximum oscillation and the
wheels are turned to the maximum steering angle, there must be no
interference between the fenders and engine hood. If necessary, adjust
the internal angle.

WARNING: ALWAYS MAINTAIN THE CORRECT TYRE PRESSURE.


WHEN INFLATING THE TYRES MAKE SURE TO STAND TO THE SIDE
OF THE CENTRAL FLANGE.

The support bracket 1 on the rim 2 is fixed offset with respect to the
centreline of the rim (and therefore with respect to the tyre too).
During fitting, the bracket can be fitted in contact with the wheel 4 on both
sides.

This allows for two different tracks.


Two more tracks can be achieved by turning the rim 2 with respect to the
wheel 1.
This means that there are in fact 4 possible ways of fitting the rim 2 and
wheel 4.

If you then fit the assembled wheel on to the hub (or rear half-axle) with the
bell facing inside or outside you can actually achieve 8 different
configurations (see the figures on pages 121 and 122 ) for distance
between the centreline of the wheel and the mating surface on the wheel
hub or half-axle flange. There are therefore 8 possible track values.

Ballast

Front ballast plates


The ballast weight is supplied on request for tractors without a front lift and
consists of 2 blocks of cast iron each weighing 35 kg (77 lb).

The ballast weight has to be mounted on the front support using the
special studs as shown in the figure below.

To ballast
– do not exceed the permissible loads per axle and the total permissible
weight
– do not exceed the permissible tyre pressure
– load the front axle sufficiently to ensure safe steering

CAUTION: ALWAYS FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELT. THE USE OF A SEAT


BELT REDUCES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY IN CASE OF AN
ACCIDENT.

129
SECTION IV WHEELS

Ballasting by filling the tyres with water + antifreeze solution


To prevent the water from freezing and damaging the tyres, use additives
to obtain a neutralised solution of calcium chloride.
Proceed as follows: pour the required quantity of water into a container
and then slowly pour in calcium chloride in the proportion of approx. 30 kg
(66.1 lb) to every 100 litres (26.4 U.S. gal) of water.

N.B. - Add calcium chloride to the water, not vice versa, to prevent the risk
of a violent chemical reaction.
The amount of liquid in the tyre must not exceed 75% of the total tyre
volume.

CAUTION: ON BALLASTING THE TRACTOR, VERIFY THAT THE


FRONT AXLE WEIGHT IS AT LEAST THE 20% OF THE TOTAL
TRACTOR WEIGHT. IT’S TO GUARANTEE A SAFE STEERING.

WARNING: REMEMBER THAT STEERING, BRAKING AND TRACTOR


PERFORMANCE IN GENERAL WILL BE GREATLY AFFECTED BY
THE IMPLEMENTS ATTACHED, THE TRAILERS TOWED OR THE
BALLAST APPLIED.

Warning: the antifreeze solution does not offer protection at


temperatures below -20°C (68°F).
Further information is obtainable from the tire trade. The antifreeze is to be
added to the water under constant stirring until it is completely dissolved.
After having filled the tires, flush all equipment with water, as the solution is
highly aggressive.

The liquid must be introduced into


the tyre using a special adapter
speci f i cal l y desi gned f or t hi s
purpose.

(These adapters are supplied by


tyre manufacturers).

130
SECTION IV WHEELS

Filling the tyre with water


Jack up tractor. Rotate wheel so
that the inner-tube tire valve is in
upper position. Screw out valve 1
insert. Screw water filling valve
into the tire valve. Connect water
hose. Connect the water hose 2
and fill until the water starts to
1
come out of the breather at the
bottom of the valve. Screw off 2
water filling valve. Refit valve
insert. Inflate tire to specified
pressure.

1 - AIR
2 - WATER

CAUTION: WHILE MIXING THE ANTIFREEZE SOLUTION AND


FILLING THE TYRE, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES
AND PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. ADD CALCIUM TO THE WATER, NOT
VICE VERSA, TO PREVENT THE RISK OF A VIOLENT CHEMICAL
REACTION.

Draining water from the tyre


Jack up tractor. Rotate wheel so
that the inner-tube tire valve
comes down. Screw out tire
valve insert. Allow water to drain.
Screw on combined valve.
Inflate tire. The air pressure will
force out any remaining water
through the bleeder bore. Screw
off combined valve. Refit tire
valve insert. Inflate tire t o
specified pressure.

CAUTION: DURING TRACTOR REFUELING, ALWAYS TURN THE


ENGINE OFF AND CLEAN ANY FUEL SPILLED ON THE TRACTOR.

131
SECTION IV WHEELS

Hydraulic trailer braking


The tractor may be equipped with an optional hydraulic trailer braking
system.
The oil used by the system is diverted from the main hydraulic system by a
directional control valve.
This directional control valve is operated by a valve that is connected
hydraulically to the hydrostatic control of the tractor brakes.

For trailers with a safety brake, the system is equipped with a specific
directional control valve. This control valve has an ON-OFFcontrol that
allows the valve to be connected hydraulically (ON position) or excluded
(OFF position).

With the key in the ignition switch, when the control is in the OFF position,
a warning light will illuminate on the instrument panel. This same light also
illuminates to indicate insufficient pressure to operate the trailer brake.
The control valve is also connected to the handbrake, so that the trailer
brake is applied when the handbrake is operated.

N.B. - For any adjustment of the braking system, contact your authorized
service centre.

OF ITS WORK LIFE.

WARNING: IN SOME OF THE ILLUSTRATIONS USED IN THIS


OPERATOR INSTRUCTION BOOK, PANEL OR GUARDS MAY HAVE
BEEN REMOVED FOR CLARITY. NEVER OPERATE THE TRACTOR
WITHOUT THESE COMPONENTS IN POSITION. IF THE REMOVAL OF
PANEL OR GUARDS IS NECESSARY TO MAKE A REPAIR, THEY
MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE OPERATION.

DANGER: NEVER START THE ENGINE BY SHORT-CIRCUITING THE


STARTER ENGINE’S TERMINALS. THIS MAY CAUSE SUDDEN
TAKE-OFFS WHICH COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS TO THE
OPERATOR.

133
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: ALWAYS WEAR CLOTHING SUITABLE FOR THE TYPE OF


WORK TO BE PERFORMED. IF NECESSARY, USE HEARING
PROTECTION PLUGS AND WEAR EYE PROTECTION.

CAUTION: IT IS IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS HAVE FIRST-AID


EQUIPMENT READ-ILY
AVAILABLE:
- FIRST-AID KIT WITH MEDICAMENTS;
- FIRE EXTINGUISHER;
- EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBERS ON HAND (DOCTOR,
HOSPITAL, AMBULANCE, FIREMEN).

WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO CARRY OUT ANY


MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS ON THE TRACTOR OR AN ATTACHED
IMPLEMENT UNLESS THE ENGINE IS SWITCHED OFF, THE
GEARBOX IS IN NEUTRAL, THE PTO IS DISENGAGED, THE
HANDBRAKE IS APPLIED AND ANY ATTACHED IMPLEMENT IS
LOWERED TO THE GROUND.

DANGER: START THE ENGINE, WITH THE STARTER KEY, FROM


THE OPERATOR’S SEAT ONLY. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START THE

Fuel storage

DANGER: TAKE CARE NOT TO CAUSE DANGEROUS SPARKS


WHEN WORKING IN PROXIMITY TO FUEL DEPOSITS OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE MATERIAL.

The conditions of fuel storage are very important. The interiors of the
storage containers must be free of rust or any sediment, as any such
material could cause serious damage to the injection system.

Refueling
The tractor fuel gauge indicates the exact level of fuel in the fuel tanks.

Be careful not to run out of diesel fuel when operating the tractor,
otherwise it will be necessary to bleed the air from fuel injection system.

If the tractor is equipped with an auxiliary fuel tank, carry out these same
operations also for the auxiliary tank.

Refueling at the end of the day


The tractor fuel tanks should always be filled at the end of the day.
This is to avoid condensation forming in the tanks overnight.
Empty space in the fuel tank is a major cause of water in the fuel system.

CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATATE ENGINE UNTIL FUEL TANK IS


ENPTY. IF ENGINE IS RUN OUT OF FUEL, IT WILL BECOME
NECESSARY TO BLEED AIR FROM FUEL SYSTEM.

WARNING: DO NOT FILL FUEL TANK WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING,


HOT, NEAR OPEN FLAME OR WHILE SMOKING. TRACTOR
REFUELING SHOULD BE PERFORMED WITH THE ENGINE TURNED
OFF AND IN OPEN AIR.

141
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

FUEL TANKS (standard and auxiliary)


Fuel tank A (standard) is located at the rear of the tractor.
The capacity of the fuel tank is 39 litres (10.30 U.S. gal).

If the tractor is also equipped with an auxiliary fuel tank B (capacity 30


litres (7.92 U.S. gal)), located under the central part of the tractor, both
tanks will have to be refuelled and the fuel is drawn up by the auxiliary tank
fuel lift pump.
When the fuel in the auxiliary tank falls below level E, the warning light on
the instrument panel will illuminate.
If the auxiliary tank is not needed or if it obstructs the kind of work the
tractor has to do, it can be removed.
To remove the tank, shut off cock C and disconnect the fuel intake pipe
with quick-action coupling D.
If there is fuel in the tank, drain it off through tube E into a suitable
container.
When the tank is removed, the tank B filler cap with bleed valve will have to
be moved to the main tank, and vice versa for the tank A filler cap, which
will have to be moved to the auxiliary tank.
Important: if the tank caps are not switched over the fuel pump will not be
able to suck in the fuel.

Bleeding air from the fuel system


This operation must be carried out when air has entered the fuel circuits as
a result of the disassembly of fuel system components, running out of fuel
or leaks around fuel line fittings.

When air is in the fuel system, the engine either fails to start completely or
stops once it has started.

To bleed the air from the system, loosen off the screw located on top of the
fuel filter and operate the fuel pump manually until the fuel that appears is
free from air bubbles.

WARNING on no account loosen the unions of the fuel lines connecting


the pumps and the injectors, as these need to be retightened to a specific
torque setting against the special copper seals, which must be renewed
whenever the fittings are disconnected.

Air filter
Air filtering occurs by means of a folded paper element protected by a
container and held in a sheet metal cylinder.
WARNING: the internal cartridge of the filter does not perform any
filtration function. Its function is to prevent solid particles from entering the
inlet manifold when the filter cartridge is removed. The inner safety
element should never be cleaned but only replaced every three cleanings
of the main cartridge.
Periodically: check the efficiency of the air filter dust exhausting valve.

NOTE: Check regularly that the engine air cleaner casing and element are
not damaged. Do not wash or brush the element.

NOTE: Periodically inspect air cleaner housing and element.

NOTE: The small inner secondary safety filter must never be used without
the larger outer primary filter being in place. The purpose of the secondary
safety filter is to serve as a backup to the primary and prevent dust or other
items from entering while the primary is being cleaned or replaced.

153
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the air filter


Clean the filtering element whenever the air filter warning light
comes on.

Important
It is important to make sure that the warning light is always working
correctly. To check its operation, start the engine and temporarily obstruct
the air filter intake tube (do not use your hands). The filtering element must
always be in perfect working order; if not, clean, wash or replace it.

Cleaning the filter using compressed air


This is the correct cleaning method to use when the filter is clogged with
dust. Direct a jet of compressed air (max. pressure 6.8 bar/98 psi) from the
inside to the outside of the element, moving the jet along the pleats in the
paper until all the dust is removed.

Washing the filter element in water


This cleaning method is particularly recommended when the the filter
element is clogged with oil substances. Wash the element using a jet of
clean water (max. pressure 2.9 bar/42 psi) directed from the inside to the
outside of the element. Leave the element to dry in a dust free
environment for 24 hours.

Refitting the element


Wipe out the air filter casing with a dry rag, and check that the element is
not deformed. Hold a light inside the paper element to check for tears or
holes in the paper fabric.
The filter element must be replaced after being cleaned 6 times, unless
any small holes or tears are detected sooner, in which case it must be
renewed immediately.
The inner safety element must never be cleaned. It must, however, be
replaced after the main element has been cleaned 3 times.

NOTE: Never use gasoline (petrol), kerosene or cleaning solvents to clean


the element.
- do not attempt to blow the main element clean using tractor exhaust gases.
- never add oil to the dry air filter element.
- filter must be serviced when warning indicator pilot light comes on,
otherwise engine could lose power and damage to engine could occur.
- never use a filter that shows sign of damage.
If in doubt, replace the filter.

Engine cooling system

WARNING: LIQUID COOLING SYSTEMS BUILD UP PRESSURE AS


THE ENGINE GETS HOT. BEFORE REMOVING THE RADIATOR CAP,
STOP THE ENGINE AND LET THE SYSTEM COOL.
CHECK THE ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM AND ADD COOLANT AS
REQUIRED.

Checking the level of coolant in the expansion tank

The coolant level should be


about halfway up the side of
the expansion tank, never
below the minimum mark.
We recommend the use of
l i qui d cool ant AKR O S
FREEZE.

N.B.- The cooling circuit operates under pressure; the pressure is


controlled by way of the radiator cap which should never be removed
when the engine is hot.
Excess pressure is removed by turning the radiator cap to the first position
and then removing it completely.

AKROS FREEZE liquid coolant


Coolant/antifreeze mixture.
This mixture, in addition to preventing freezing at temperatures down to
-38°C (-36.4°F), offers protection against oxidisation, corrosion, foaming
and encrustation.

The quantity of coolant and antifreeze mixture contained in the


cooling system is 11 litres (2,9 U.S. gal).

WARNING: ALWAYS USE THE 100% OF PERMANENT TYPE


ANTI-FREEZE “AKROS FREEZE” AVAILABLE FROM YOUR
DEALER, NEVER THE ALCOHOL TYPE ANTI-FREEZE.

156
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

Changing the coolant/antifreeze mixture and flushing the cooling


system
Clean the cooling system using a specific detergent.

Proceed as follows:

– Drain the engine coo-


ling system by ope-
ning the drain cock on
the left-hand side of
the engine;

– Drain the radiator by removing the the drain plug on the bottom left-hand
side;
– Fill the system with the detergent mixture (if the tractor is equipped
with a cab heater, this should be set to maximum heating so that the
detergent mixture also circulates through the heat exchanger);
– Start the engine and allow to it run for approx. one and a half hours.
– Drain the system and then fill it with water; then start the engine again,
bring it up to a speed of approx. 1000 rpm and leave it running for 5 mi-
nutes.
– Drain the system once again.
– Refill with AKROS FREEZE, run the engine for a few minutes and
then top up the system.

Thermostat
There are two thermostats in the cooling system that prevent the
coolant from circulating in the radiator until it has reached a sufficiently
high temperature (approx. 85°C/185°F).
If you are in any doubt as to whether a thermostat is functioning correctly,
have it checked by qualified personnel.

WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE RADIATOR CAP WHILE ENGINE IS


HOT. RADIATOR IS PRESSURIZED AND IF OPENED WHILE HOT,
STEAM AND BOILING LIQUID WILL BE SPRAYED OUT, WHICH MAY
INJURY YOU AND OTHERS WHICH MAY BE CLOSE BY. THERE CAN
ALSO BE A EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF COOLANT LOSS.

157
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the oil cooler


The oil cooler can be cleaned with a compressed air jet, or, if necessary, a
steam jet (max. pressure 6 bar/87 psi) or a water jet.

If the engine is to be cleaned at the same time, protect the air filter, the
alternator and the starter motor.

Once all the components have been replaced, run the engine for a few
minutes so that it heats up and dries any parts still wet.

Cleaning with detergents

If you use detergents to clean the oil cooler, use commercial products that
dissolve oil.
The detegrent can be mixed with water for application by spray gun or
brush.
After applying the solution, wait after few minutes, then rinse off with clean
water.

Cleaning with compressed air

This operation is only suitable for removing dust. When cleaning the grilles
or cab filter screens, make sure that the compressed air jet is directed in
the opposite direction to the normal air flow.

Important: failure to keep the oil cooler clean can lead to overheating of
the lubricated parts.

Warning: every time you clean the tractor, observe the applicable
regulations for environmental protection.

Changing the oil


The gearbox oil also feeds all the tractor’s hydraulic services: hydrostatic
steering, power-lift and hydraulic distributors.

When changing the oil it will also be necessary to drain the oil from the
auxiliary control valves circuit by moving the control levers and hydrostatic
steering circuit lever in both directions and slackening the connectors on
the cylinder and turning the steering wheel in both directions.

After changing the oil, bleed the circuit by rotating the steering wheel in
both directions with the engine running until oil free of bubbles flows out of
the loosened fittings. Then tighten the fittings once again.

Also, have the filter changed on the tractor hydraulic circuit (see figure,
page 162).

• Check the belt tension (see instructions on page 186)


• Furthermore verify that the pulleys are prefectly aligned.
• Make sure the heater alternator is firmly secured to tractor.
• If the system fails to work, check the fuse in the terminal block in
the roof.
• Ascertain, by removing a heating muff, that there is no dirt inside
the thermoconvector which could prevent its normal operation.

After any type of work is performed on the thermoconvector, it is a good


rule to always make sure that:
– The heater is clean and free of foreign deposits.
– The air ducts are not blocked.

Never turn on the heating system in dusty environments when the doors
are open.

N.B. The checks listed above will have to be performed more frequently
when working in dusty environments.

Cab air filter


Cleaning the filter
Periodically (according to the conditions of use).

E
To access the filter it i s
necessary to detach the front
grille from the side clips.
Then loosen knob and
remove the filter.

Clean the filters as follows:


• Blow compressed air (max 6 bar/87 psi) through the filter in the op-
posite direction to the normal air flow in order to comletely remove
all dust;
• Wash with a solution of water and detergent solution at 40°C
(104°F) for about 15 minutes.
• Rinse with running water;
• Leave to dry at ambient temperature.
IMPORTANT: the filter must be replaced if damaged and, in any case, after 6
washes.

When refitting the filter, make sure that it reaches up to the top and bottom
edges of the filter housing.

Active carbon air filter


The procedures for removal and refitting are the same as for ordinary
filters.
• The filter does not provide total protection against toxic substances
• Fit this filter on the cab in place of the standard dust filter.
• Wear protective gloves when changing the filter.
• After each use, the filter must be removed and the standard dust
filter fitted in its place.
• The filter must be replaced in its original packaging and carefully
sealed.

184
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

• It is important that the filter is removed during use of the tractor for
any applications other than pesticide spraying; dust will clog the fil-
ter in a very short time.
• This filter, if used correctly and for no longer than a total of 200 ho-
urs, has a maximum life of 36 months from the moment the packa-
ging is opened (the date of manufacture is indicated on the filter).
• Do not wash the filter or clean it with compressed air.
• Used filters must be disposed of at specialised waste disposal cen-
tres.

Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

DANGER: REPLACE THE “ACTIVE CARBON” FILTER AFTER 200


WORKING HOURS OR AFTER 36 MONTHS. IF YOU NOTICE SMELL
OF PESTICIDE INSIDE THE CAB, REPLACE IMMEDIATELY THE
FILTER AND LET CHECKED THE CAB GASKETS.

Maintenance of the air conditioning system


The system is made up of three units:
1 Fan-evaporator unit, placed under the cab ceiling;
2 Power supply unit, consisting of a motor-driven compressor.
3 Condenser and fan unit mounted on cab roof.

Inspecting the radiator-condenser


Remove the safety grille and check that the radiator- condenser is not
dirty or clogged. The fins should always be kept clean.
Clean with a water jet or air jet directed from the inside out (take care not to
damage the fins - straighten any bent fins using special fin comb).

N.B. - Should any of the fittings of the air conditioning circuit become
loose, the system will have to be recharged using special equipment.
Have the system recharged at a specialised service centre.

Should the air conditioning system require further servicing or repair,


contact your SAME service centre.

185
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

Air conditioning system check


• to be carried out every year at a specialised service centre
Any air and water in the refrigerant circuit will impair the efficiency of the
system:
– the air is compressed unnecessarily and does not produce any
refrigerating effect.
– water tends to freeze in the coldest parts of the circuit and thereby
create obstructions that impair the cooling action.

The system check begins by


inspecting the condition of the
refrigerant through the inspection
window on top of t he
receiver-drier.
The refrigerant, as seen through
the inspection window, should be
clear and free of bubbles.

Check the drivebelt


tension; the belt should
deflect a maximum of 15
mm (0,59 in) when thumb
pressure is applied at the
mid-point between the two
pulleys.

If necessary, adjust by
turning screw A on the
tensioner.

Check that the compressor is firmly fixed to the tractor and that the pulleys
are perfectly aligned.

IMPORTANT - Should it be necessary to remove the receiver-drier or the


air conditioning unit, immediately plug the ends of the inlet and outlet pipes
to prevent the ingress of dust or humidity.

186
SECTION V MAINTENANCE

Air conditioning system compressor


The compressor must be securely fixed to the tractor.

The refrigerant circuit is pressurized and therefore must never be opened


except by specialized service technician.

The ecological refrigerant R 134a is non-toxic and odourless, and is not


inflammable.

However, there are certain essential safety precautions when handling


refrigerant:
• Avoid direct contact with skin, as this can cause lesions similare to
frostbite.
• Avoid contact with eyes; should the refrigerant enter your eyes,
seek medical assistance immediately.
• Any welding either directly on the refrigerant circuit or in the imme-
diate vicinity is strictly prohibited. The refrigerant must not be be
exposed to temperatures in excess of 80°C (176°F).

Service valves of the air


conditioning system
All servicing or charging of
the air conditioning system is
to be performed at a
specialized service centre.

WARNING: CONTACT WITH REFRIGERANT CAN CAUSE SEVERE


SKIN LESIONS. IN CASE OF CONTACT WITH THE EYES, DO NOT
RUB EYES, SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ASSISTANCE.

SECTION VI ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

IMPORTANT

For tractors with cab platform,


the front sidelights on the
fender are fixed to a mobile
support.
This support must be
positioned as indicated in the
figure when driving on the
public highway.

When necessary, the sidelight


supports can be turned back
to prevent them getting caught
on overhanging branches, as
shown in the figure.

Remember to return t he
sidelights to their working
position (i.e. turned forwards)
before driving on the public
highway, in observance of the
Highway Code.

CAUTION: ALWAYS WEAR CLOTHING SUITABLE FOR THE TYPE OF


WORK TO BE PERFORMED. IF NECESSARY, USE HEARING
PROTECTION PLUGS AND WEAR EYE PROTECTION.

209
SECTION VI ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Headlight alignment
The tractor must be in normal road-going conditions and parked on a level
surface at a distance of 10 m (32.8 ft) from a wall (tyres must be inflated to
the correct pressures and the front wheels must be positioned for travel in
a straight line).

Switch on the dipped beam headlights.

1 - points on the wall corresponding to the centres of the headlights


A - distance apart of headlights
H - height of headlights
h - distance of the centre of the beam from the horizontal axis
X - distance between headlights and wall

210
SECTION VI ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Turn the adjuster screws indicated by the arrows in the figure to move the
beam in a vertical or horizontal direction.

NOTE: in order to determine the points on the wall corresponding to the


centres of the headlights, we recommend that you bring the tractor up to
the wall with the dipped headlights on, mark the centres on the wall and
then move back to a distance of 10 m (32.8 ft) from the wall.

Horizontal adjustment
With the headlights switched on, the centres of the beams should be apart
the distance A indicated in the figure.

Vertical adjustment
With the headlights on, the lines delimiting the light and dark zones on the
wall should 10cm (3.9 in) apart as shown in the figure.

IMPORTANT: The figure refers to headlight alignment for driving on the


right-hand side of the road. For driving on the left-hand side of the road, the
dark beam zone projected on the wall must be symmetrical to that shown
in the figure (i.e. the points of the dark zone that penetrate the light zone
must always be directed towards the edge of the road).

211
SECTION VII STORAGE OF THE TRACTOR

SECTION 7 - STORAGE OF THE


TRACTOR
Operations prior to garaging the tractor for a long period

for example, before winter

If the tractor is not to be used for a long period, we recommend that you
carry out the following operations to prevent certain components from
deteriorating during storage.

– Run engine to thoroughly warm oil in crankcase. Drain oil and install
new filter element. Refill crankcase with fresh oil as recommended in
Specification section.

– Top up the cooling system radiator with the prescribed coolant with
anti-freeze and anti-corrosion properties.

– Fill the fuel tank completely to prevent the condensation forming insi-
de the tank.

– Start the engine and check that the fuel system and the injection
system are functioning correctly.

– Check that the fuel filters are clean.

– Slightly loosen the fuel filler cap and the radiator cap so that the relati-
ve seals are not kept under pressure.

– Clean the air filter element. Lubricate the tractor as specified in the
maintenance schedule.

– Remove the battery from the tractor and clean the two terminals (posi-
tive/negative).

– The battery should be charged and then stored in a cool, dry place.

CAUTION: CAREFULLY READ ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS


CONTAINED IN THE OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE HANDBOOK
AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS LISTED ON THE TRACTOR’S
DECALS.

212
SECTION VII STORAGE OF THE TRACTOR

– Cover the exhaust pipe with a plastic sheet held in place with adhesive
tape. The tractor must be completely clean; touch-up any scratches in
the paintwork to prevent rust from forming.

– Apply a layer of grease to exposed metal surfaces as a protection aga-


inst rust.

The tractor should be stored in a suitable garage, and preferably not


exposed to dust. If the tractor has to be stored outside, cover it with a
sheet.

IMPORTANT: do not leave the tractor idle for a long period without having
first carried out the operations listed above.

Preparing the tractor for use after a long period of storage

– Remove the tractor from the wheel stands (if used).

– Remove the cover sheet (if any);

– Remove the cover from the exhaust.

– Charge and refit the battery (follow the instructions given in this ma-
nual).

– Start the engine and allow to tick over slowly for a few minutes.

– Do not use the throttle until you are sure that the engine is running cor-
rectly.

– Carry out all the operations prescribed in this manual for the start of
the working season; the tractor will then be ready to be put back into
service.

SECTION VIII TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Attachment of implements to the tractor

To allow full use in the widest possible range of applications, the structural
frame of the tractor has been designed to afford a solid, safe mounting for
agricultural or semi-industrial implements.

Before attaching particularly heavy implements to the tractor, please


consult your SAME service centre.

There may be special applications in which the tyres the tractor was
equipped with may not be suitable. In those special applications, it is
recommend that your SAME dealer be consulted before a different tyre
combination is installed other than what has been approved in the tyre
section of this manual.

Before attaching the implement, check that the tyres are capable of
supporting the load.

Check the markings on the walls of the tyres and consult the tyre
manufacturer’s load tables.

APPENDIX Combination of tractor and mounted implement

Combination of tractor and mounted implement


The mounting of implements on the front or rear
three point linkage shall not result in exceeding the
maximum permissible weight, the permissible axle
loads and the tyre load carrying capacities of the
tractor. The front axle of the tractor must always to
be loaded with at least 20% of the unladen weight of
the tractor.
Make sure before buying an implement that these
conditions are fulfilled by carrying out the following
calculations or by weighing the tractor/implement
combination.

Determination of the total weight, the axle loads, the tyre load car-
rying capacity and the necessary minimum ballasting

For the calculation you need the following data and see the table of page E:
TL [kg (lb)] Unladen weight of tractor
TV [kg (lb)] Front axle load of unladen tractor
TH [kg (lb)] Rear axle load of unladen tractor
GH [kg (lb)] Combined weight of rear mounted implement/rear ballast
GV [kg (lb)] Combined weight of front mounted implement/front ballast
a [mm (in)] Distance from centre of gravity for combined front
mounte dimplement/front ballast to front axle centre
b [mm (in)] Tractor wheelbase
c [mm (in)] Distance from rear axle centre to centre of lower link balls
d [mm (in)] Distance from centre of lower link balls to centre of gravity
for combined rear mounted implement/rear ballast

2) Calculation of the minimum ballasting at the rear GH min

Record the calculated minimum ballasting which is needed at the rear of


the tractor into the table.

3) Calculation of the real front axle load TV tot


(If with the front mounted implement (GV) the required minimum front
ballasting (GV min), cannot be reached, the weight of the front mounted
implement has to be increased to the weight of the minimum ballasting at
the front!)

Record the calculated real front axle load and the permissible front axle
load of the tractor into the table.

4) Calculation of the real total weight Gtot


(If with the rear mounted implement (GH) the required minimum rear
ballasting (GH min) cannot be reached, the weight of the rear mounted
implements has to be increased to at least the weight of the minimum
ballasting at the rear!)

Record the calculated real and the permissible total weight given in the
instruction handbook for the tractor into the table.
