Use e Maintenance ENGLISHtransfer zone. Check the state, condition and suitabil-ity of the means at disposition. Do not touch sus-pended loads, keeping them at a safe distance.It most be further ascertained that the operationalarea is free of obstacles and that there is sufficient«escape space», meaning an area which is free andsecure into which one could move rapidly in case aload should fall.The surface on which the machine is to be loadedmust be horizontal in order to prevent possible shift-ing.Once the machine is positioned on the vehicle, makesure that it remains blocked in its position. Fasten the ma-chine on the platform of the vehicle by means of cablessuitable for the mass which must be blocked (see «Tech-nical Data» on pag. 16 for the weight).The cables must be firmly fastened to the machine andpulled taut to the anchorage point on the platform.Once transport has been carried out and before freeingthe machine from all its fastenings, make sure that its stateand position are such as not to constitute danger.Remove the cables and proceed to unloading with thesame means and methods used for loading.Transit and transporting on the public highwaysWhen driving on the public roads, fit on the rear re-flector triangles, side lights and fl ashing beacon andalways make sure that you comply with the Highway Codeand any other applicable regulations.Make sure that the machine dimensions during transferphases allow for safe transport when travelling in subways,along narrow roads, near electrical lines, etc.ATTENTION!Maximum speed when transporting the machine onthe road is 25 km/h.Before driving on to the public roads with the ma-chine hitched to the tractor, make sure that the de-vices listed above and/or the slow vehicle signaland/or the projecting load signal operate correctly.These indicators must be affixed to the rear of the im-plement in a position where they can be clearly seenby any other vehicle that drives up behind.The tractor used for transporting the equipment musthave the powers shown in the Technical Data table, if nec-essary, redistribute the total weights with the addition ofballasts to return balance and stability to the whole as-sembly (see § 4.3 pag. 22).For displacements beyond the work area, the equip-ment must be placed in the transportation position:• Where provided for, make all the moving parts comewithin the transport width, locking them with thesafety devices.• Any transport accessories must be provided with suit-able signs and guards.• The fertiliser spreader must be empty.4.5 MACHINES SUPPLIEDPARTLY BROKEN-DOWNOwing to their size, the machines may be supplied withdetached parts, always fixed in the same pack.. Usu-ally, the group of raisers to expand hopper capacity aredetached and later assembled by the customer.Execute these installation operations with the ut-most care. Refer to the list of parts in the Spare PartsCatalogue. In particular, apply the screw tighteningtorques as listed in the Chart on following pages.4.6 BEFORE USEBefore starting the machine, check that:• The machine is perfectly in order, that the lubricantsare at the correct levels (see chap. 5 «Manuten-zione» on pag. 39) and that all parts subject to wearand deterioration are fully efficient.Mounting of the accident prevention guardsUsing the pipe clamps and fastening screws, secure theprotection bar in points (A), (B), (C), (D) (E), as shown infigure (4.6).Before tightening the fastening screws all the way, makesure that the distance between the machine and the pro-tection bar is as shown in figure (4.7).If assembling the limiter accessory for border spreading,the protection bar must be replaced with the two bars (A)and (B) shown in figure (4.8), the fastening points are thesame.Respect the installation heights shown in the figure be-fore tightening the fastening screws all the way. Shouldit not be possible to close the spaces as listed above orshould the protections be damaged, immediately ordernew ones, communicating the machine identification se-rial number.Assembling the hopper extensionsThe machine is usually delivered with the base hopper ex-tensions disassembled. To assemble the hopper exten-sions, refer to the exploded drawings in the spare partstables and proceed as follows.1. Apply the adhesive gasket all along the edge of thebase hopper (A: Fig. 4.10) keeping a distance ofabout 5mm from the edge, as shown in Fig. 4.9.2. Position the base extensions (Ba), (Bb) (C), casshown in Fig. 4.10. Tighten the fastening screws onlyafter having readied all the extensions.3. Proceed in the same way to assemble the upper ex-tensions (see Fig. 4.11) inserting the adhesive gas-ket between one extension and another.4. Complete extension assembly by applying the innertie rods (D1) and (D2) (see Fig. 4.11).Cod. F07011577 EN - 25
