5 - INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 
 

5.5  USE   

After going through all the previously described procedures, start up the tractor and keep the machine slightly lifted off 
the ground, insert  the P.T.O. shaft and keep motor at a low speed.   
Once  you  start  moving  forward  with  the  tractor,  start  lowering  the  machine  towards  ground  level  and  lead  motor  to 
normal speed. 

 

 

Tractor speed with the machine at work must not exceed 10 Km/h in order to avoid failures or 
damages.
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
5.6  USEFUL ADVICE 

Once the machine is at work, it is possible to have stones or other blunt objects lifted by the rotating blades. Check 
constantly that  no persons, children or pets are near the working area of the machine. Also the driver (or operator) 
must  follow  these  rules  and  keep  the  safety  distance.  Avoid  turning  machine  on  empty  (off  the  ground).    DO  NOT 
make side turns when machine is lowered into the ground and DO NOT work  in reverse.  

Always  lift  the  machine  when  changing  direction  or  changing  gears.  During  transportation  and  whenever  lifting  of 
machine  is  necessary,  adjust  the  power  unit  of  the  tractor  not  to  lift  machine  off  the  ground  more  than  30÷35  cm. 
Avoid driving in public roads when machine is dirty with soil, grass or other dirt  which could endanger road traffic.   

DO NOT lower machine on the ground at one go, lower it down very slowly, otherwise its components could be put at 
risk and/or damaged. 
 
5.7  UNHOOKING OF MACHINE
 

To  unhook the machine off the tractor do as follows:   
- disconnect the power unit of the tractor.   
- lower machine onto the ground, turn off the motor and pull up parking brake.   
- release the P.T.O. shaft from the power unit of the tractor, and fasten it to its corresponding hook .   
- adjust the supports before releasing machine.   
- unhook fasteners and perform procedures described in Para. 4.3  the other way round  
 
5.8  STORAGE 

If you are not going to use the machine for a long period, to make sure you protect all of its parts, it is better to do the 
following maintenance operations before storing it:       
a) 

Wash off fertilizers or other chemical products etc. from machine and then dry carefully .      

b) 

Check that the machine is in a good state.    
Consider this as an advantage, it will be ready next time you use it.      

c) 

Protect metal parts which are not coated with lubricants, cover machine with care and store it in a dry place.    

  
5.9  INCONVENIENCES  AND  POSSIBLE REMEDIES   

If  the  machine  makes  strange  noises,  stop  it  immediately  and  check  that  all  the  indications  submitted  by  the 
manufacturer for a correct use are being followed 

Working with a malfunctioning machine could be of danger for the user  

WORKING ON A HILL   
If possible climb up towards the inclination of the hill. If this is not possible, then avoid working along the sides of the 
hill, try and take paths from uphill to downhill. 

PRACTICAL OBSERVATIONS:   
The “worked” terrain should always be on the driver’s right.  The best way to work is at alternate strips.   

   

MAX 10 Km/h
