28
Safety frame (roll-bar or ROPS)
The machine is equipped with a folding safety frame. Always keep the safety frame
mounted in its correct vertical position when you are working. It is absolutely forbidden to
modify the structural components of this type of construction by welding on additional
parts, drilling holes, grinding, etc. Failure to comply with these recommendations could
impair the rigidity of the frame itself.
The safety frame is subjected to considerable stress if the tractor tips over. If this
happens, the structural components must be replaced if they have been bent, deformed
or damaged in some other way.
When in the horizontal position, the safety frame will provide no protection if the
tractor tips up. When working in these conditions, it is of the utmost importance
for the operator to pay the greatest attention when manoeuvring the machine.
Raise the safety frame again as soon as the machine is able to operate in normal
conditions.
To lower the safety frame, on both sides:
• turn the pin through 90° and remove it
• lower the safety frame
• insert the pin into the second housing
and turn it through 90°
29
Cab
A
• Always shut the doors before moving
off with the tractor.
• Keep the windows clean to ensure
good visibility.
• The cab is approved as a safety
structure. It is therefore absolutely
forbidden to tamper with it, modify or
add extra equipment and/or
supports.
Versions
The machine can be equipped with a cab in
three different versions:
• Cab without ventilation (Basic version)
• Cab with heating function (Top Calda)
• Cab with heating and air conditioning
(Top Fredda)
ccessories: activated carbon filter and
revolving beacon.
Heating and ventilating
The ventilation function is operated by
means of the control A. Direct the air flow
by positioning front vents.
The air can be drawn from the outside or
from inside the cab by means of rear vents:
• vents closed: the air is drawn from the
outside through the filter.
• vents open: most of the air is drawn
from the inside through the vents
themselves.
The heating function is operated by means
of control D (a =open; c = closed). Vary the
ventilation speed by means of control A.
30
Air conditioning
A
The air conditioning system allows you to
obtain fresh, dehumidified air or hot
dehumidified air.
• Never tamper with the air
conditioning system: always contact
specialized personnel.
• Keep naked flames and heat
sources well away from the air
conditioning system.
• Never loosen unions and/or
tamper with pipes: the system is
pressurized.
• The refrigerant can freeze the skin
and eyes.
Starting and stopping the engine
Make sure that the air conditioner and fan
are off before starting the engine.
lways turn off the air conditioner and fan
before stopping the engine.
Operation
To operate the air conditioning system:
1) stop the heating function by means of
knob C (set to position C)
2) use knob A to turn on the ventilation
3) use knob L to turn on the cooling
function.
If the fan on the cab roof fails to start within
one minute once the system has been
turned on, turn it off and check the fuses.
Failure of the rear fan to operate will raise
the pressure of the gas in the air
conditioner’s circuit and could block the
system.

41
Three-point hitch
A
The tractor is equipped with a three-point hitch. To ensure that this system operates
correctly, make sure that the size and weight of the implement used correspond to the
specifications of the power lift and hitch itself.
Consult the technical specifications section for further details.
Components:
A Third point link
B Adjustable rod (pair)
C Side stabilizer (pair)
D Power lift’s lower link (pair)
E Spring
ALWAYS switch off the engine before hitching or adjusting the three-point hitch in
any way.
The third point coupling must NOT be used for towing implem ents.
Lower the implement connected to the three-point hitch to the ground before
getting off the tractor.
Third point link
Coupling
The third point coupling has 3 holes to make it easier to hitch the implement and slant it
at the correct angle. It also establishes the sensitivity of the draft control function which
must be selected to suit the type of implement used:
A
Top hole: less sensitivity; suitable for
implements that create a lot of
tractive effort.
B Central hole: medium sensitivity.
C
Bottom hole: greater sensitivity;
suitable for light implements.
Adjustment
djust the length of the link to suit the
implement’s coupling angle in relation to the
ground.
42
Adjustable rod (pair)
The rod can be adjusted so as to level and
align the lower links to suit the implement used
and the type of work required.
Side stabilizer (pair)
The stabilizers must be adjusted to limit the
side swing of the power lift’s lower links:
5-6 cm swing
for ploughs, rotary harrows, etc.
Min. swing
for leveling blades, hoeing attachments,
etc.
0 swing
for transporting implements that are not
working.
Universal joint
Consult the specific manual for the safe operation and
maintenance instructions concerning certain parts of the machine
manufactured by third parties.
43
Rear power lift
The following operating conditions can be applied:
• Controlled position
• Controlled draught
• Floating mode
• Combined mode
Controlled position
Ideal for jobs that required constant
implement position (drills, scraper, hitched
manure spreader, etc.).
• Move lever B fully forwards.
• Use lever A, to raise and lower the lift.
Lift raising is proportionate to lever
movement.
Draft control
This is used to keep the lugging power the
tractor must provide constantly under
control without overloading the engine and
keeping slippage within very low limits
(ploughs, cultivators, etc.).
• Move lever A fully forwards.
• Use lever B to adjust the required
amount of draft.
• Use lever A to raise and lower the power
lift.
Floating mode
Ideal when you want to leave the
implement free to follow the contour of the
ground (cultivators, ridgers, scrapers, etc.).
• Move lever B all the way back.
• Use lever A to raise and lower the lift.
44
Mixed draft and position mode
adjustment
This operating mode is ideal for jobs
carried out in draft control mode on
irregular ground when the implement is
liable to dig too deeply into the soil.
Dig the implement into the ground down to
the desired depth as described for the draft
control mode.
Once the required depth has been
reached, gradually move lever A back
towards the end of travel point until the lift
links begin to slightly raise.
The power lift will operate in the draft
control mode but will stop the implement
from digging too deeply into the soil if it
encounters softer ground. This prevents
the tillage work from becoming irregular.
Only use lever A to raise and dig in the
implement.
Regulating lift rate and sensitivity
Slacken off completely regulating
screw, to lock the implement in its
raised position. This is a safety device
when implements are transported on
road.
Screw out this regulator to increase lift
lowering speed.
3-point hitch sensitivity can be further
increases by attaching it to one of the lower
tractor hitch holes.
45
Towing attachments (optional)
Choose the towing attachment to suit the type of trailer or implement towed, in
compliance with the current laws in force.
Ease of driving the tractor also depends on correct use and height adjustment of the
towing attachment.
WARNING: The tractor could tip up if the towing attachment is set in the highest
position.
Keep the drawbar as horizontal as possible when four-wheel drive is used.
Front tow hook (optional)
The tractor can be equipped with a front
tow hook for emergency manoeuvres with
the trailer or for towing the actual tractor
itself.
“Category B” tow hook (optional)
The tractor can be equipped with a rear tow
hook of the “CUNA CAT. B” type for towing
trailers with one or two axles.
To adjust the height of the tow hook:
• remove the pins
• position the hook as shown in the figure
• fix the pins in place
“EEC Category” tow hook (optional)
The tractor can be equipped with the “EEC”
type of rear tow hook for towing trailers with
one or two axles.
To adjust the height of the hook:
• remove the pins
• position the hook as shown in figure
• fix the pins in place
46
Ballast (optional)
If very heavy implements are hitched to the tractor, the longitudinal stability of this latter
may be impaired. This can be corrected by using one of the various types of ballast
available as optionals.
WARNING: when you determine the type of ballast to use, make sure that you do not
exceed the following limits between the implement and the ballast itself:
• the permissible load on the front axle (KG)
• the permissible load on the rear axle (KG)
The values are given on the tractor’s metal data plate.
Front ballast (optional)
The front ballast consists of cast iron
plates.
The plates have handles so that they can
be assembled and disassembled.
The ballast is fixed in place with blade A
connected with screw B, which must be
tightened to a 5 Kgm (49 Nm) torque value.
Rear ballast (optional)
The rear ballast consists of cast iron discs
fixed to the wheels.
The ballast is fixed in place with screw A,
which must be tightened to a 14 Kgm (137
Nm) torque value.
47
Wheel ballasting by filling the tyres with fluid.
The driving wheels are ballasted by pouring water into the tyres.
Note: it is preferable to use tyres with inner tubes.
Note: if tubeless tyres are used, ask your dealer how to lub ricate the disc correctly so as
to prevent it from rusting.
Note: use water with an antifreeze solution in cold weather (manufacturers recommend
neutral calcium chloride -CaCl
How to pour in the water:
• position the valve at the top
• unscrew the mobile valve union
• pour in the water with a common water
hose
• stop filling every so often, so as to allow
the air to escape
• stop filling altogether when water spills
from the valve.
• the water should fill 75% of the tyre.
• tighten the mobile valve union.
• inflate the tyre to the normal operating
pressure.
How to drain out the water:
• position the valve at the bottom.
• unscrew the mobile valve union.
• allow the water to drain out.
• finish emptying the tyre by means of a
union with a pipe (draw pipe).
• inflate the tyre with air until all the water
has been drained out.
• tighten the mobile valve union.
• inflate the tyre to the normal operating
pressure.

Wheels
Steering angle
The front wheels may interfere with the
body of the machine when the track width
is changed.
To prevent contact, the maximum steering
angle can be regulated with the two limiters
on the front axle:
• raise the front axle by jacking up the
wheels.
• unscrew the two check nuts A.
• work on the two screws B.
• adjust the steering angle by taking the
axle swing into account.
• tighten the two check nuts A.
Note: the steering angle must be the same
on both sides.
Front wheel toe-in
Measure the distance from wheel disc to
wheel disc on the front and rear sides on a
level with the front axle. Distance A must
differ no more than 1.5 mm from distance
B.
Proceed as described below to adjust the
toe-in:
• loosen nut B.
• unscrew or tighten threaded bar A.
• tighten screw B (M18x1.5) with a 34
Kgm (334 Nm) driving torque.
49
Track widths
A
The tractor can be equipped with adjustable, reversible wheel discs that allow the track
width to be changed.
Whenever the wheels are reversed, check to make sure that the arrows indicating the
turning direction on the tyre are pointing in the correct direction.
The overall width of the tractor is governed by laws when the tractor is driven on the
roads: comply with the laws in force in the country of use.
WARNING: When disassembling the tyres:
• Take the greatest care
• Use tools and equipment that set the tractor in safe conditions
• Use tools to lift heavy wheels.
Wheel bolt torque values
A The driving torque to fix the flange to the
disc is:
ø 12” = 10Kgm (98Nm)
ø 15”/16” = 15Kgm (147Nm)
ø 18”/20”/24” = 25Kgm (245Nm)
B The driving torque to fix the wheel disc to
the hub is:
Front (M14X1.5) = 15Kgm (147Nm)
Rear (M16X1.5) = 22Kgm (215Nm)
Transmission ratio
The ratio between the tip speed of the front
and rear wheels must be accurately
determined so that the front wheels are in
advance. failing this, the tyres will be
subjected to excessive wear.
sk your dealer for advice when you
change the size of tyres.
50
Tyres
Absolutely avoid:
• improper use
• overloading (even localized)
• unsuitable pressures
• unsuitable rim and tyre matches
Tyre life and performance depends on use of the correct operating pressure: if the
pressure is too low, the tyre will quickly wear out while an excessive pressure will reduce
the lugging power and make the wheels more liable to slip.
A correct tyre pressure depends on various factors:
• the operating conditions
• the tractor load
• the tractor model
• the tyre make
• the tyre size
You are therefore advised to consult your dealer or the tyre manufacturer.
The values given below are only approximate as they depend on the conditions
described above:
FRONT: REAR:
2.4 bar 1.6 bar
WARNING: the tyres must only be changed by competent persons in possession
of the necessary equipment and technical know-how.
How to tow the tractor
Only use normal towing attachments (tow bar or hook) for towing both the tractors
(towing and towed).
Only use a safe, strong chain or special rope to connect the two tractors together.
NOTE:
• The tractor must only be towed for short distances and never on the public highways.
• Never drive faster than 10 kph when towing.
• An operator must remain seated in the towed tractor.
51
Transporting the tractor
The best way to move a tractor that has broken down is to transport it on the platform of
a truck or trailer.
Fix the tractor to the platform by means of the couplings on this latter and using the tow
hook (front and rear) as a connection point.
Do not fix the chains to the drive shaft, steering cylinders or other components that could
be damaged by the chains themselves.
