Foreword
We would like to welcome you to the ever-growing number of people who own a Valtra tractor; people who
appreciate quality. We are proud of every tractor that leaves our factories, each being technically advanced
and of a high quality.
This Operator Instruction Book contains the specifications for your new tractor. Please ensure that all operators read the instructions and follow them carefully. The pages that follow contain vital information on your
tractor; please read them carefully.
Your Valtra dealer will guarantee you quality servicing and will provide you with all the assistance you need.
When it comes to servicing, remember that your dealer knows your tractor best and that he wants you to be
completely satisfied.
Please leave this Operator Instruction Book in the tractor if resold. The subsequent owner will need the information it contains.
All information and specifications in this Book are up to date at the time of publication. However, our ongoing
policy to improve our products obliges us to reserve the right to make alterations at any time without notice.
Please note that this Book relates to all models and refers to both standard and optional equipment. You may
therefore find details relating to equipment that is not fitted on your tractor.

Operator Instruction Book
N
OTE: This Operator Instruction Book is widely published and distributed and the availability of the attach-
ments indicated, whether fitted to the basic tractor or as an accessory, may vary depending on the country
or region in which the tractor is used. To find out which attachments are available in a given region, contact
a Valtra dealer.
The purpose of this book is to enable the owner and the operator to operate the tractor appropriately under
normal conditions of use. Providing they follow the instructions carefully, the tractor will give many years of
service in the Valtra tradition.
The commissioning of equipment by the Valtra dealer on the user's premises enables the dealer to ensure
that these operating and servicing instructions are properly understood. Always consult the Valtra dealer if
there is any part of this book that you do not understand. It is important that these instructions are understood
and followed.
This book does not cover all operation and safety instructions relevant to the implements and accessories
that may be fitted at the time of tractor delivery or later. It is essential that operators use and understand the
Operator Instruction Books relating to these implements and accessories.
IMPORTANT: This book must always be kept with the tractor. For extra copies, contact your Valtra dealer.
This chapter in the Operator Instruction Book highlights certain basic safety-related situations which may be
encountered during normal operation and servicing of the tractor and provides the information needed to handle these situations.
This chapter supplements any safety instructions given in other chapters of this book.
It may be necessary to take additional precautions, depending on the implements and accessories used and
the working conditions on-site or in the servicing area. Valtra can under no circumstances exercise direct control over the commissioning, operation, inspection, lubrication or servicing of the tractor. It is therefore YOUR
responsibility to take suitable safety precautions in such areas.
WARNING:
It is your responsibility to read and understand the instructions that appear in this chapter before using the tractor. They must then be strictly adhered to throughout the working day.
Servicing, spare parts, accessories and conditions of use
Daily servicing should become a routine, and a logbook of operating hours should be kept.
When spare parts are required, it is important to use only genuine Valtra parts. Valtra dealers supply genuine
parts and can offer advice concerning their fitting and use. The use of lower quality parts may cause serious
damage. Customers are advised only to purchase their spare parts from an approved Valtra dealer. In the
same way, you must only use accessories specifically adapted to your tractor.
Owing to the considerable variation in operating conditions, it is not possible for the manufacturer to formulate complete or absolute assertions in its publications concerning the performance or operating methods of
its machines or to accept liability for any loss or damage which may result from such assertions or possible
errors or omissions.
If the tractor is to be used in abnormal conditions which could cause damage (use in deep water or in paddy
fields for instance), you should consult your Valtra dealer to obtain special instructions to prevent the warranty
from becoming void.
These tractors are designed only for usual farming activities (intended use). Use for any other activity is considered to be contrary to the intended use.
Strict compliance with the repairs, servicing and operating conditions as specified by Valtra is also an essential component of the intended use.
IMPORTANT: Valtra accepts no responsibility in the event of damage to equipment or personal injury result-
ing from improper use.
The tractor must only be used, serviced and repaired by personnel who have full knowledge of their specific
features and who are aware of the applicable safety measures (prevention of accidents).
Customers are strongly advised to contact a Valtra dealer in the event of after-sales problems and for any
adjustments which may be necessary.
