    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USERS

    TRACTORS EQUIPPED WITH FRONT END LOADER

    Zetor Tractors in standard design are designed for utilization in agriculture and are not designed for special purposes.Tractors designed for operation within the European Union must be equipped, in case of using front end loader, with a protectivestructure (FOPS – Falling Object Protective Structure) protecting drivers from potential falling objects.

    It is necessary to observe applicable local valid regulations in countries which are not part of the European Union.

    Two types of cab roofs are mounted to Zetor tractors.1. Standard cab roof2. Cab roof designed for tractors equipped with front end loader meeting the OECD code 10 (FOPS) conditions.

    Tractors ZETOR supplied already from production with front end loader are equipped with cab roof according to point 2.From safety reasons, series ZETOR tractors supplied without front end loader with standard roof pursuant to point 1 must not beequipped or used with front end loader.In case of additional front end loader assembly, it is necessary to equip tractor with cab roof pursuant to point 2.

    Only front end loaders approved by ZETOR TRACTORS may be mounted to ZETOR tractor. Addi tional assembly of front end loader approved by ZETOR TRACTORS can be done only by authorized ZETORservice.It is forbidden to use front end loaders unapproved of by ZETOR TRACTORS.Not observing this instruct ion may cause serious accidents.

    Carefully observe instructions for use supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader.

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USERS

    PRINCIPLES FOR OPERATING TRACTORS EQUIPPED WITH FRONT END LOADER

    Carefully study operation manual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader.In case of discord of Principles for operating tractors equipped with front end loader and operation manual forfront end loader, which was supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader, the wording listed in operationmanual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader shall apply.

    - The use of front end loader for transporting material at places accessible to the public is forbidden.- The use of front end loader for transporting material in places inaccessible to the public is possible only in a limited way. In such

    case, instructions in user’s manual supplied by the loader manufacturer must be observed.- Observe local valid regulations at all times.- A strict ban on transportation and lifting of people by means of loader is in effect.- No matter whether the front end loader is loaded or empty, no-one may stand in front of the loader if it is in lifted position. When

    driving with a lifted loader, there is a risk of load transported by front end loader falling (there is a risk of disrupting the balanceof the tractor).

    - Never leave the tractor standing with the loader in lifted position.

    - If it is necessary to open the bonnet of the engine at intervention, disconnect the front end loader first or secure hydraulic rollersof front end loader by metallic props designed for this purpose.

    - Hydraulic circuit of the front end loader is designed in such a way to endure the maximum operation pressure of 20 MPa (200bar). Do not do any changes on couplers of hydraulic circuit hoses.

    - Any front end loader ZETOR mounting without observing the recommendation of ZETOR TRACTORS valid to the day of pur-chase revokes the validity of guarantee for the whole of supply.

    - The loader may be used, maintained and repaired only by people who perfectly know the machine and who are informed aboutpotential risks.

    - When driving on roads do not transport any material on the front end loader.- It is necessary to observe special instructions related to accidents prevention and general rules related to technical safety, la-

    bour medicine, labour hygiene and regulation defining operation on roads.- The manufacturer does not bear any responsibility for any potential damage incurred as a result of changes conducted on the

    loader without their consent.- Do not ever adjust the front end loader by yourselves and do not use the adjusted front end loader without prior ZETOR´s ap-

    proval. The loader may become dangerous as a result of not observing these instructions. ZETOR TRACTORS shall not beheld responsible in case of any damage or injury.

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USERS

    - Use front end loader without additional weights on the tractor (danger of mutual contact). The load of front and rear drive axlemust not exceed the maximum permitted load listed in the manual. The use of front end loader requires mounting of counterweight in the rear part of the tractor.

    - Each working tool was reconstructed for the purpose of specific usage and has its own tolerance of resistance and tightness.- It is forbidden to use front end loader for cultivating soil and stubbing. Such work needs to be done with a special tool, front end

    loader is not designed for doing this.

    - Using controls which would set the loader into motion without driver holding the gear shifting lever is strictly forbidden and re-sults in installation not meeting the prescribed standard.

    - To penetrate the loaded material, better use the kinetic energy of the tractor rather than pressing force which causes higherstrain of both the loader and the tractor.

    - Do not overload hydraulic parts if the load is too heavy or pistons are in end positions.- Control the loader exclusively from driver’s seat, if you are sitting on driver’s seat.- Do not leave the seat if you have not blocked any movement of controls.- No people can be present in the working zone of the loader.- When working with a lifted loader, mind electric and external cables etc.- Loader/tractor set needs to be parked on a horizontal and solid base, the arms of the lifting device must be set in the lower po-

    sition. After using the front end loader, park the tractor and lower the tool to the ground.

    You will find more information in user’s manual to front end loader.

    Important notification:Work always safely and with consideration.

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USERS

    ZETOR TRACTORS USED FOR WORK IN THE WOODS

    Standard tractors Zetor do not provide sufficient protection for operation in forest terrain as, for example, protection against a fall-ing tree or branch on a cab or penetration of objects to a cab.

    If Zetor tractor is utilized for forest work, a tractor operated within the European Union must be protected against these risks.It is necessary to observe applicable local valid regulations in countries which are not part of the European Union.

    To ensure this protection, it is advisable to conduct assembly of a specific protective structure, like for example FOPS / OPS (Fall-ing Object Protective Structure / Operator Protective Structure), tested according to standards for forest machines.

    Only forest superst ructures approved by ZETOR TRACTORS can be mounted to ZETOR tractors.

    In case of additional assembly of further tractor equipment for working in the woods, full responsibility is borne by the supplier andmanufacturer of the protective structure that all the safety regulations (e.g: OPS / FOPS), all the conditions of homologation (e.g.the area of driver’s view, lighting, parameters, permissible weight etc.) are met, same as for the provision of due assembly of pro-tective equipment. The supplier/manufacturer of protective construction is also obliged to conduct all the necessary validation

    (approval) steps required by the legislature of the country in which the tractor is operated.

    HYDROSTATIC STEERING

    - Check the oil level in the hydrostaticsteering tank.

    - Check the tightening of screws andnuts of the steering rods and levers.

    - Check the condition of all the hoses ofthe hydraulic steering circuit fordamage and for oil leaks.

     AIR CLEANER

    If the air cleaner is heavily clogged withdirt, this condition is indicated by asensor that lights up an indicator on thedashboard.

    CAB FILTRATION

    Check and if necessary clean the cabventilation air filters installed in the frontoverhang of the roof.The filter exchange interval depends onthe dustiness of the workingenvironment.Partial regeneration can be performed bybeating out or blowing with compressedair.Do the cleaning or replacement of thefilter elements after removing the

    covering grills in the roof overhang.

    *AIR FILTER WITH ACTIVE CARBON

     Active carbon filters are installed in the placed of standard dust filter and the re-placement is done in the same way as with standard filters. Filter must be insertedwith the white side to the grid. Assembly instructions are found in the chapter“Maintenance instructions”.Filter is used only when spraying pesticides, then it must be replaced back by a paperfilter because the flying dust would clog the carbon filter very fast.The recirculation control must be in the position “air is sucked from the outside”Ventilator control must be in the position “maximum ventilator run”

     WARNING: filter does not provide full protection against toxic substances

     Wear protective gloves when manipulating with the filter

     Do not clean the filter and do not blow through with compressed air

    DANGER: Replace the active carbon filter every 200 hours or 36 months (dateof production is given on the filter). If you happen to smell pesticides in thecabin, replace the filter immediately and have the sealing of the cabinchecked. Used filters must be damaged in specialized collection centres

    When spraying pesticides andusing heating filters with activecarbon, the recirculation controlmust be in the position of „airsucked from the outside” and theventilator control “maximum venti-lator run” for creating surpluspressure in the cabin

     AIR CIRCULATION IN CABINCONTROL(D)

    a - surrounding (outside) air is sucked inthrough filters to cabin – sucking theair from cabin is closed.

     b -  Air is sucked in from the space of thecabin and again blown off to the cabin(inner air recirculation for fast adjust-ment of temperature in the cabin)

    The intake of air from the outsideof the cabin is completely locked

    and there is no surplus pressurein the cabin which would preventpervasion of unfiltered air to thecabin!Do not use this position of thecontrol with work of the tractor!

    PROPER FUNCTION OF THE HEATING AND AIR-CONDITION SYSTEM

    It is necessary to create surplus pressurein the cabin for proper function of theheating or air-condition. We thereforerecommend you to close all the windowsand doors and tilting cover of the cabin.

    FAST HEATING OF THE CABIN AREA

    Proceed accordingly:1 - Turn the heating valve control (A) tothe position on the right (fully openedheating valve).

    2 - Set air circulation in cabin control (D)to the position of inner circulation.

    3 - Select applicable gear of the ventilatorrun (position 1, 2, 3) by ventilator con-trol (B).

    4 - Set the expiration under the requested

    angle to avoid direct fanning of thepeople in the cabin.5 - After heating the space of the cabin,

    set the air circulation in the cabin con-trol (D) to the position of sucking theouter air - see fig. F_02_17b position(a)

    FAST COOLING OF THE SPACE OFTHE CABIN

    Proceed accordingly:1 - Switch the heating valve control lever

    (A) to the position to the left2 - Set the air circulation in the cabin lev-

    er (D) to the position of outer air suck-ing

    3 - Select an applicable gear of the venti-lator run (position 1, 2, 3) by ventila-tor control (B)

    4 - Switch the air-condition system by aswitch (C)5 - Set expiration under the requested

    angle so that direct fanning of peoplein the cabin does not occur (the pos-sibility of illness due to intensive cool-ing of parts of body).

    OPERATION OF HEATING OR AIR-CONDITION WITH TRACTOR´S WORK

    With engaged inner recirculation of air isthe inflow of fresh air closed and there isfoul air in the space of the cabin by oper-ator. This state can cause the feeling offatigue and there can also be penetrationof dust to the cabin because of the lossof surplus pressure.Note: Set the control (D) according to in-dividual requirements on temperature to

    the position between (a) and (b) so thatthe ventilator sucks the air from the out-side of the cabin through filters, whenworking.

    IMMEDIATELY AFTER COOLING THECABIN

    Immediately after cooling the cabin andlowering the inner temperature on therequired values, we recommend the fol-lowing:

     Do the continuous regulation of the airtemperature with air condition on byopening the heating valve (A). The airentering the cabin from expiration isnot so intensively dried with this set-

    ting. Continuous temperature control with

    air-condition on can be also done bylowering the output of ventilator byswitching the control (B) to position 1or 2.

    BEFORE YOU START

    Before you start the engine, make

    sure that:1. the tractor is properly braked.2. the main gear shifting lever of

    gears in neutral position.3. Reversing lever is in neutral

    position4. PTO switches on the right col-

    umn of the cabin are off

    If clutch pedal is not depressedthe tractor cannot be started –

    start protection switch is notswitched

    IF YOU DO NOT SUCCEED INSTARTING THE ENGINE

    Return the key to "0" position. Wait 30second and repeat the start.

    Never help the stopping engineby a starter. You are being ex-posed to the danger of starterdamage.

    NON-PERMITTED STARTING

    It is forbidden to start the tractor

    by short-circuiting the starterclamps. Start only from the driv-er´s seat. It is necessary to disconnect minuspole of accumulator and all theshifting levers including PTO shaftshifting lever to be shifted in neu-tral position with any manipulationor repair of the starter. The start-er´s clams are covered with a cap.

    STARTING THE ENGINE OF THETRACTOR

     As a standard, the tractors are equippedby glow plugs in the heads of rollers.

    When starting the engine, it isnecessary to sit on the driver´sseat.

    1. Insert the key to the switchbox (“0”position).

    2. Depress the clutch pedal.3. Shift the main gear shifting lever to

    neutral position.4. Shift the reversing lever to neutral po-

    sition.5. Make sure that all PTO switches on

    the right column of the cabin areswitched off.

    6. Turn the key to “I” position. A yellowcontrol will light up on the dashboard

    signalising the proper igniting function.7. Wait for the ignition control to turn off

    (the time is dependent on the temper-ature of the coolant).

    If the ignition control merelyblinks instead of lighting up, thereis a disorder in the ignition sys-tem (see ch.: Ignition system dis-order signalization). The signal-ised fault must be resolved in an

    expert service garage.8. Turn the key to the “II” position (start).9. After starting the engine, release the

    key immediately. Do not start for morethan 15 sec. 

    IGNITION SYSTEM DISORDERSSIGNALIZATION 

    Ignition system disorders are signalizedby blinking of ignition control.-  If ignition control blinks at standstill

    once per second, ignition in emergen-cy system occurs just like at low tem-peratures regardless of the tempera-ture of coolant.

    -  If the ignition control blinks at standstilltwice per second, the ignition is put offoperation (does not work).

    -  If the ignition control blinks permanentlyduring the run of engine, there is a dis-

    order of ignition control and ignition hasnot been completed. The disorder mustbe forthwith removed, because there isthe danger of battery depletion.

    COOLANT HEATER

    Coolant heater is mounted on the engine

    block.The heater has the output of 1000 Wwith voltage of 220 V of electric alternatecurrent.

    STARTING THE ENGINE WITH THE USE OF COOLANT HEATER

    Heating the coolant makes starting the engine easier with low temperatures. Inlet

    electric installation and its protection against dangerous touch must be done in ac-cordance with valid regulations.

    1. Insert the plug to the heater first.2. Then connect the heater to the electric network of the voltage of 220 V.

    With regard for the lower engine wear when starting at low temperatures, the use ofheater is recommended by the manufacturer. The duration of heating is dependenton the surrounding temperature (1 - 2 hours before scheduled start should suffice).

     After completing the heating, first disconnect the device from the electric net-work and only then pull the plug out of the heater!

    The danger of injury by electric current! It is necessary to ensure instruction of the tractor´s operator and regu-lar revision of the heater of coolant including inlet cable in the sense ofvalid standards of the state in which the tractor i s operated at least be-fore every winter season.

    IMMEDIATELY AFTER START

     After start, set the revolutions for

    800 - 1000 revolutions per mi-nute, allow the engine to run for atime period of approximately 2minutes.

    In this time, do the control of greasing,recharging, hydrostatic steering (the con-trols must turn off) and other functionsensuring proper run of engine. The timeof engine operation without load must bekept, in particular in winter season.

    ENGINE HEATING

    Do further heating of the engine during the drive. The heating of the engine by

    lengthy idle run or sharp increase in revolutions is harmful to the engine.If the temperature of coolant has not reached 45°C, do not exceed the enginerevolutions over 2000 rpm.

    The listed principles for tractor s operation serve for facilitating the operation andguarantee corresponding service life of travel clu tch!  

    THE DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM OF TRAVEL CLUTCHES

    The tractor is equipped with two individual travel clutches, one for travelling forward and one for travelling backward.The selection of the driving direction and also the choice of a specific travel clutch is done by shifting the reversing lever under thesteering wheel from neutral position to the position forward or backward.

    THE WAY OF CONTROLLING THE TRAVEL CLUTCH BY

    1 - Reversing lever2 - Clutch control button on the head of reversing lever3 - Clutch pedal

    THE DIFFERENCES IN WAYS OF CONTROLLING THE TRAVEL CLUTCH BY

    1 - Reversing lever

    This way of control has automatic start function.When shifting the reversing lever to neutral position, there is release of travel clutchWhen shifting the reversing lever to the forward or backward position, there is a switch of travel clutch and subsequent smoothdead start of the tractor in the direction defined by reversing lever.The speed of switch of travel clutch and the smoothness of dead start is contro lled by a controlli ng unit on the basis of

    information saved in calibration and the operators cannot influence it.

     Automatic dead start function is sparing to travel clutches than the control of travel clutches by clutch pedal,therefore use the ways of controlling travel clutch with the funct ion of automatic dead start for the regular opera-tion of t ractor with dead start, gear shifting or the change of the driving direction.

    70

    This way of control has the function of automatic switch of travel clutch.When pressing the button of clutch control on the head of gear shifting lever there is release of travel clutchWhen releasing the red button of control clutch on the head of gear shifting lever, there is a switch of travel clutch.The rate of travel clutch sw itch is cont rolled by electronic control uni t on the basis of information saved with calibrationand the operator cannot influence it.

    3 - Clutch pedal

    When depressing the clutch pedal, there is release of travel clutch.When releasing the clutch pedal, there is a switch of travel clutch.The speed of travel clutch switch is dependent on the speed of releasing the clutch pedal.The clutch pedal does not enable the function of automatic dead start and operators inf luence the speed and smooth-ness of dead start.

    Use the clutch pedal only fo r stopping the tractor in regular operation.

    For the need of delicate inching, for example when connecting tools or when manipulating with the tractor incrammed spaces, when even the reduced gear speeds are not slow enough, use the clutch pedal for shor t time.

    It is forbidden to control the speed of tractor by partial depression of the clutch pe-dal with engine revolutions higher than 1200 revolutions per minute.Do not use the clutch pedal as a foot rest.

    There is a danger of limit ing service life or failure of travel clutches.
