2.6 Parking the machine

In order to avoid damage as a result of

moisture, the machine should be parked, if

possible, indoors or under cover. Park the

machine on level and solid ground.

When manoeuvring the machine,

pay attention to your surroundings.

Ensure that nobody is in the

manoeuvring area (watch for

children!).

• Lower the parking stands (if fitted) to the

desired height.

• Lower the machine so that it is supported

on the tines and parking stands.

• Unhitch the machine.

2.4 Hitching-up the

machine

When hitching-up the machine,

ensure that no-one is between the

tractor and the machine.

• Attach the machine to the tractor 3 point

linkage.

• Place the parking stand (if applicable)

into the transportation position.

2.5 When driving on the

road

When driving on the road the machine must

be converted to the transportation position.

There is a risk of injury on

specially sharpened edges and

when making adjustments on the

machine.

When driving on the road, raise

the machine completely to prevent

the working elements dragging on

the ground.
