-
machine.
Secure the tractor against unintentional starting and unintentional rolling away.
-
Check that the tractor's PTO is switched off.
-
Connect the supply lines to the tractor.
-
Position the lower link hooks so that they are aligned with the lower linking points on the machine.

Risk of contusions when coupling the machine and standing between the tractor and the machine
Instruct people to leave the danger area between the tractor and the machine before you approach the machine. Any
helpers may only act as guides standing next to the tractor and the machine, and may only move between the
vehicles when both are at a standstill.
Risk of contusions, cutting, catching, drawing in and knocks when the machine unexpectedly
releases from the tractor
•
Use the intended equipment to connect the tractor and the machine in the proper way.
•
When coupling the machine to the tractor's three-point hydraulic system, ensure that the attachment categories
of the tractor and the machine are the same.
•
Use a lynch pin on each of the upper and lower link pins in the pivot points on the three-point frame attachment
to secure them against unintentional release.
•
Only use the upper and lower link pins provided for coupling the machine.

Visually check the upper and lower link pins for obvious defects whenever the machine is coupled. Replace
upper and lower link pins if there are clear signs of wear.

6.3.2. UNCOUPLING THE MACHINE

Risk of contusions, cutting, catching, drawing in and knocks through insufficient stability and
possible tilting of the uncoupled machine
Place the machine due to the high supported load, only on a horizontal storage space with a solid base.
When uncoupling the machine, there must always be enough space in front of the machine, so that you can align the
tractor with the machine if necessary.
The PUMA can be uncoupled as follows:
•
When folded out. Place the machine on the tines.(Important during longer down times)
•
When retracted.Place the machine on the stand.
•
Park the machine on a level parking surface on solid ground.
•
Uncouple the machine from the tractor.
Secure the machine against unintentionally rolling away.
-
Lower the stand (where applicable).
-
Release the lower link.
-
•
At the same, simultaneously actuate control unit 1. Lower the running gear, thus keeping the machine horizontal.
From the tractor seat, unlock the lower link hooks and uncouple them.
-
Pull tractor forward approx. 25 cm. This will allow more room between tractor and machine and
-
•
give better access for uncoupling the PTO shaft and supply lines.
Secure tractor and machine against unintentional starting and rolling away.
-
Disconnect the supply lines.
-
Fasten supply lines to their respective parking sockets.
-
Secure the machine against rolling away with wheel chocks.
