TRACTOR WITH QUICK COUPLER
1º Align and move the tractor’s coupler towards the trailer/semi-trailer’s drawbar;
2º Connect the drawbar’s traction (safety) chains to the tractor;
3º Connect the trailer’s hydraulic system pipes to the tractor’s respective hydraulic circuits (the tractor
must be off);
4º Connect the plug of the trailer’s electrical system to the tractor’s socket;
5º SEMI-TRAILERS (HMB) - With the tractor’s coupler fully lowered, operate the drawbar’s hydraulic
cylinder to position the coupling eye slightly above the level of the tractor’s quick coupler;
TRAILERS (HGMB) - With the tractor’s coupler fully lowered, manually adjust the height of the
drawbar with the help of the spring, fixing it with the chain links, such that this is fixed in place and
the coupling eye is slightly above the level of the tractor’s quick coupler.
6º With the tractor’s coupler in its fully lowered position, slowly reverse the tractor until it reaches a
position where the trailer’s coupling eye can be coupled to the tractor’s coupler. Once this position
has been guaranteed, apply the tractor’s brake;
7º Raise the tractor’s quick coupler using the levelling control command (see the tractor’s instruction
manual). Ensure that the coupling operation has been carried out correctly, and that the safety
system operates properly. Next, apply the tractor’s brake;
8º SEMI-TRAILERS (HMB) - Retract the drawbar’s hydraulic cylinder to its operating position;
9º Remove the chocks from the wheels and release the hand/parking brake.

CONNECTION BETWEEN THE HYDRAULIC TIPPING SYSTEM AND THE TRACTOR
Note: For safety reasons, never connect/disconnect the tractor’s pipes while the box is
tipped! When connecting the pipes, ensure that the quick connect valves are not dirty!
1º Ensure that the box is not tipped;
2º Lower the tractor’s linkage to gain access to the tractor’s hydraulic sockets zone;
3º Switch off the tractor’s engine
;
4º Connect the trailer’s hydraulic system pipes to the tractor’s respective hydraulic sockets; “
When
connecting the pipes, ensure that the quick connect valves are not dirty! “
5º Turn on the tractor’s engine and re-position the linkage in its elevated position to prevent collision
with the drawbar during transport.
