34) Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports and
tables for signaling of dimensions.
35) When the dimensions of carried or partially-carried equipment
conceal the tractor's signalling and lighting devices, these
must also be installed on the equipment itself, in conformity
with regulations of the highway code of the country involved.
When in operation make sure that the lighting system is in
perfect working order. It is also important to remember that
the correct signalling sequence of the headlights includes
(Fig. 4):
A - Direction indicator
B - Red position light

used.
38) The engine must not be running when installing and removing
the Cardan shaft.
39) Care must be taken regarding the safety and correct assembly
of the Cardan shaft.
40) Use the chain provided to stop the Cardan shaft from
rotating.
41) Always check carefully that the Cardan shaft guard is always
in position, both during trans-portation and operation.
42) Frequently and set intervals check the Cardan shaft guard, it
must always be in excellent condition.
43) Before engaging the power take-off, check that the
set rpm corresponds to that indicated by the sticker

Maintenance in safety
51) Do not proceed with maintenance and cleaning if the power
take-off has not been disconnected first, the engine power
off, the hand brake pulled and the tractor blocked with a
wooden block or stone of the right size under the wheels.
52) Periodically check that the bolts and nuts are tight, and if
necessary tighten them again. For this it would be advisable
to use a torque wrench, respecting the values of 52 Nm for
M10 bolts, resistance class 8.8, and 142 Nm for M14 bolts
resistance class 8.8.
53) During assembling, main-tenance, cleaning, fitting, etc., with
the seeding machine raised, place adequate supports under
the equipment as a precaution.
