Hitching the machine We strongly recommend that you observe the safety warnings given in the previous pages of this manual.
The category of the tractor 3-point linkage must match that of the implement.
To attach the harrow to the tractor, proceed as follows:> Line up the tractor with the harrow> Insert the lower links of the tractor's hydraulic linkage in the corresponding
mounting brackets on the implement, which should both be positioned at the same distance from the tractor.
> Secure the lower links with the pins and locking pins provided.
NOTE Attachment is made easier if the lower link stabilisers are adjusted soas to allow the lower links to move freely.On completion of the hitching operation, the stabilisers should beadjusted so as to limit oscillation (during implement transport, alloscillation must be completely eliminated).
> Insert the end of the top link of the tractor's hydraulic linkage in the upper mounting bracket of the harrow and secure it with the relative pins and locking pins.
> Adjust the length of the top link, bearing in mind that the drive shaft transmitting power from the tractor Pto to the harrow must be horizontal when the implement is in operation.
NOTE During operation, the tractor's top link must be tilted upwards by the
Mounting bracket for Cat.2 linkage

Hitching the machine
machine (see next figure). This configuration enables the implementto overcome obstacles and ensure that the roller is loaded correctly.Incorrect adjustment (e.g. top and lower links parallel) will result in anexcessive load on the implement and the roller.
Tractor and implement combination: do not exceed the maximumpermitted weights!The combination of the mounted implement and tractor must notexceed the maximum permitted weight, i.e. the maximum permittedaxle loads and the load capacity of the tractor wheels. At least 20% ofthe tractor weight must be supported on the front axle of the tractor.
Connection of the drive shaft
Check the dimensions!Before connecting the drive shaft, check that its dimensions aresuitable for attachment to the tractor's Pto.If the drive shaft is too long, this could cause serious damage to thetransmissions of the tractor and the harrow, as well as to the shaftitself.If the drive shaft is too short, the two halves of the shaft could becomeseparated with a consequent risk of serious injury and damage.
To check the length of the drive shaft, proceed as follows:• Place the two halves of the drive shaft assembly (the half
connected to the tractor Pto and the half connected to the implement) side by side; the tractor Pto half and the implement half should be parallel; the angle can be adjusted by way of the top link of the hydraulic linkage.
• If the sliding distance of the shafts is less than 40mm, then both the halves will have to be shortened by a corresponding amount. Maintain the difference in length between the outer tube and the inner section.
• Always make sure that the maximum coverage of the sliding element is maintained. The coverage should be at least 1/3 during operation.
• With the harrow in the working position, the angle of the drive shaft should not exceed 20° (for example, at a working depth of 10 cm), while the maximum permitted angle is 25°.
