Make sure there is no loose hardware and that no parts are damaged or missing.

Verify the Poly plough is correctly attached to the tractor that the tractor hitch links are long enough and the control levers operate correctly.

Installation Instruction:

Installation process Poly Plough is as follow: Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.

Back the tractor into the position where you can align the top link, the right and left lower links to the links position of Poly plough. The length of the lift links of tractor is adjustable by rotating the turn-buckle. Attach each three point links together and secure the connection with pin and lock with circle pin.

Adjust the lift links by rotating the turn-buckle. The right lift link should be shorter than the left lift link which makes the right side of Poly plough lifted higher than the left side. This will keep the right side and left side of Poly plough parallel with the land and each disc are in the appropriate position to perform the best tillage as during the plough operation the right wheels of tractor are running into the groove

Inspection before Each Season:

Make sure the recommended lubrication has been performed.

Make sure proper operating adjustments have been performedto obtain the best performance from the Poly plough.

RP90046,00007A5 -19-11AUG11-1/1

The right and left lower links shall have the same clearance with rear wheels by adjusting the sway chains both sides. The sway chains should be tight in order to keep the Poly plough follow straight behind the tractor where each disc performs the wide working width in equivalent load.

Adjust the top link arm to appropriate height in order to control the consistency of working depth by observe that the main frame of Poly plough is parallel with the land.

The furrow disc should be adjusted after performed short distance of plough operation. The edge of furrow disc should run on the center line of the groove with 45 degree inclination to the center line of the groove by adjust the length of disc furrow shaft and rotate the furrow disc.

Adjust the spring compression to increase appropriate pressure to the ground in order to control movement of Poly Plough.

Tow Loads Safely:

Stopping distance increases with speed and weight of towed loads, and on slopes. Towed loads with or without brakes that are too heavy for the tractor or are towed too fast can cause loss of control. Consider the total weight of the equipment and its load.

Observe these recommendedmaximum road speeds, or local speed limits which may be lower:

• If towed equipment does not have brakes, do not travel more than 22 km/h and do not tow loads more than 1.5 times the tractor weight.

• If towed equipment has brakes, do not travel more than 40 km/h and do not tow loads more than 4.5 times the tractor weight.

Ensure the load does not exceed the recommended weight ratio.

Comply with the Transport Speed Limit

The maximum permissible travel speed for this implement is 22 km/h

Some tractors can operate at speeds higher than the maximum speed limit for this implement. Regardless of the maximum speed the tractor used to tow this implement can achieve, do not exceed the implement's transport speed limit.

Exceeding the implement's maximum transport speed can result in:

• Loss of control of the tractor/implement combination

Service Machine Safely:

To help prevent personal injury caused by unexpected movement, be sure to service machine on level surface. If the machine must be in a raised position while working on or near it, be certain service locks are installed or machine is adequately supported. If machine is connected to tractor, engage parking brake and/or place transmission in “PARK”, shut off engine and remove key.

Add ballast to recommended maximum for tractor, lighten the load, or get a heavier towing unit. The tractor must be heavy and powerful enough with adequate braking power for the towed load. Use additional caution when towing loads under adverse surface conditions, when turning, and on inclines.

• Reduced stopping power or no ability to stop during braking

• Implement tire failure

• Damage to the implement's structure or components

Be careful and slow down when towing the machine in adverse conditions, when turning and when operating on slopes.

Do not attempt to transport if the fully loaded implement weighs more than 1.5 times the weight of the tractor. Never tow this implement with an automobile.

If machine is detached from tractor, block wheels and use safety stands to prevent movement.

Practice Safe Maintenance:

Understand service procedure before doing work. Keep area clean and dry. Never lubricate, service, or adjust machine while it is moving. Keep hands, feet, and clothing from power-driven parts. Disengage all power and operate controls to relieve pressure. Lower equipment to the ground. Stop the engine. Remove the key. Allow machine to cool.

Securely support any machine elements that must be raised for service work. Keep all parts in good condition and properly installed. Fix damage immediately. Replace worn or broken parts. Remove any buildup of grease, oil, or debris. On self-propelled equipment, disconnect battery ground cable (-) before making adjustments on electrical systems or welding on machine.

Remove Paint before Welding or Heating

Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust.

Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is heated by welding, soldering, or using a torch. Remove paint before heating:

• Remove paint a minimum of 100 mm (4 in.) from area to be affected by heating. If paint cannot be removed, wear an approved respirator before heating or welding.

• If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust. Wear an approved respirator.

• If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove stripper with soap and water before welding. Remove solvent or paint stripper containers and other flammable material from area. Allow fumes to disperse at least 15 minutes before welding or heating.

On towed implements, disconnect wiring harnesses from tractor before servicing electrical system components or welding on machine.

Do not use a chlorinated solvent in areas where welding will take place.

Do all work in an area that is well ventilated to carry toxic fumes and dust away.

Dispose of paint and solvent properly.
