4.8 LIFT
The following operating conditions can be applied:
Controlled position
Controlled draught
Floating mode
Combined mode
Controlled position
Ideal for jobs that required constant implement position (drills, scraper, hitched
manure spreader, etc.).
• Move lever n.14 fig.1 fully forwards.
• Use
lever
n.15
fig.1,
to
raise
and
lower
the
lift.
Lift raising is proportionate to lever movement.
Draft control
This is used to keep the lugging power the tractor must provide constantly under
control without overloading the engine and keeping slippage within very low
limits (ploughs, cultivators, etc.).
• Move lever N° 15 fig. 1 fully forwards.
• Use lever N° 14 fig. 1 to adjust the required amount of draft.
• Use lever N° 15 fig. 1 to raise and lower the power lift.
Floating mode
Ideal when you want to leave the implement free to follow the contour of the
ground (cultivators, ridgers, scrapers, etc.).
• Move lever n.14 fig.1 fully forwards.
• Use lever n.15 fig.1 to raise and lower the lift.
Mixed draft and position mode adjustment
This operating mode is ideal for jobs carried out in draft control mode on
irregular ground when the implement is liable to dig too deeply into the soil.
Dig the implement into the ground down to the desired depth as described for
the draft control mode.
Once the required depth has been reached, gradually move lever N° 15 fig.1
back towards the end of travel point until the lift links begin to slightly raise.
The power lift will operate in the draft control mode but will stop the implement
from digging too deeply into the soil if it encounters softer ground. This prevents
the tillage work from becoming irregular.
Only use lever N° 15 fig.1 to raise and dig in the implement.
