3. TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS
3.1. ADJUSTMENTS / USING THE MECHANICAL DISC-O-SEM
PREAMBULE:
As far as possible, read this chapter while standing in front of the machine.
The DISO-O-SEM chassis can be fitted with a variable number of disks. Each disk is fitted with a
replaceable wear disk. The working depth of the disks is controlled by the depth control device, a roller
(e.g. cage roller or Flexi-Pack roller)
When you receive the DISC-O-SEM, check that its characteristics are appropriate. Then carry out all
the preliminary operations prior to start-up as described in this manual.
3.1.1. Hitching / unhitching
Before hitching or unhitching the DISC-O-SEM, it is important to ensure that:
- The tool is or will be on stable ground and no one is within 50 meters of the machine.
- The top-links of the tractor's three point hitch are adjusted to the same dimensions.
- The tractor tyres are inflated to the same pressure.
- The tractor is adapted to the tool to be hitched and is weighted appropriately.
- The tractor connections are adapted to the tool to be hitched.
- When hitching, do not exceed:
-
The total authorised weight for the tractor
-
The permissible load capacities of the tyres mounted on the tractor.
-
The authorised axle loads for the tractor
Characteristics required of the tractor
No person must be within 50 meters of the machine while hitching or unhitching
Before reading the practical instructions for hitching and unhitching the machines, it is
ESSENTIAL to read the safety instructions first.
Check that the tractor satisfies the necessary requirements before
hitching the machine:
- Total authorised weight
- Permissible load capacities of the tyres
The authorised values for the total weight, the axle loads and the tyre load
capacities can be found in the tractor's registration papers.
