3.8 ADJUSTING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

1) At the moment of connecting the hydraulic tubes to
the hydraulic system of the tractor, make sure that the
hydraulic systems of the operating machine and the tractor
are not under pressure.
2) For the operative hydraulic connections between tractor
and operating machine, the sockets and plugs should be
marked with colours to distinguish them, to avoid them
being used wrongly. There would be a danger of accident
if the connections were to be swapped round.
3) The hydraulic system is under high pressure; because of
the accident risk, when searching for leakage points special
auxiliary instruments should be used.
4) Never carry out the search losses with the fi ngers or the
hands. The liquids that leak from the holes can be nearly
not visible.
5) During transport by road the hydraulic connections
between tractor and operating machine should be
disconnected and secured to the support provided.
6) Do not use vegetable oils under any circumstance. These
could cause a risk of damage to the cylinder gaskets.
7) The operating pressures of the hydraulic system should
be between 100 bars and 180 bars.
8) Never exceed the indicated hydraulic system pressure
levels.
9) Check that the quick hook-ups are coupled correctly; parts
of the system could get damaged if they are not.
10) Oil escaping at high pressure can cause skin injury
with the risk of serious wounds and infection. Call a
doctor immediately if such an incident occurs. If the oil
is not removed quickly with surgical means, can take
place serious allergies and/or infections. Therefore,
the installation of hydraulic components in the tractor
driver's cab is strictly forbidden. All the components of
the system should be positioned carefully to avoid parts
being damaged during use of the equipment.
11) In case of participation on the hydraulic system, to unload
the hydraulic pressure carrying all the hydraulic commands
in all the positions some times after to have extinguished
the motor.
12) Before carrying out checking operations, maintenance or
adjustment on the hydraulic system, the operator must put
on suitable PPEs*.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

4.0 MAINTENANCE

Here follows a list of various maintenance operations to be carried
out periodically. Lowered operating costs and a longer lasting
seeding machine depend, among others, on the methodical and
constant observation of these rules.
- The maintenance periods listed in this booklet are only
indicative and are for on normal conditions on use, therefore
varies depending the kind of service, the more or less dusty
surroundings, seasonal factors, etc. For more serious
conditions of service, maintenance will logically be done
more often.
- Before injecting grease, the nipples must be clean to avoid
mud, dust and foreign bodies from mixing with the grease,
otherwise they will reduce or even annul the effect of the
lubrication.
- Always keep oils and grease out of reach of children.
- Always read the instructions and precautions shown on the
containers and on the product safety sheets.
- Avoid skin-contact.
- After use wash the equipment thoroughly.
- Dispose of grease and used oils in conformity with the
legislation in force.
Before performing maintenance on the machinery, be sure
to wear appropriate personal protection equipment (safety
footwear, overalls, gloves and safety glasses).
All maintenance operations must be carried out with the
equipment resting on the ground and disconnected from the
tractor, with support devices securely in place and the rear
rollers resting on the ground.
4.0.1 WHEN THE MACHINE lS NEW
- Before starting the seeding operation grease all parts indicated
by transfer nr. 9 ('GREASE') at page 29 of this leafl et.
- After the fi rst hours of work check that all the bolts are still tight.
- With a new machine, check the hydraulic hoses and connections
before starting the system, and then after that check their
operating safety condition at least once a year.

4.0.2 EVERY 20/30 WORKING HOURS

- Ensure that the bolts are well-tightened.
- Periodically check the hydraulic cylinders and their fi ttings. If
necessary, repair or replace any defective parts.
