Operation with trailers and trailed machines

Tractor movement with engaged synchronous PTO drive is permitted at speed not exceeding 8 km/h; f) Disengage PTO when turning an aggregate (for trailed machines), as well as when lifting up the machine into transport position (for mounted and semi-mounted machines); g) After machine discoupling from the tractor do not leave cardan drive joint on PTO drive end; h) When installing power pulley, as well аs driver reducing gear of special machine (cotton, excavating machine, etc.) on rear PTO cover, take care that they are aligned against drive end (inserted into Ø162mm bore on rear cover), nuts аnd their fixtures are securely tightened.

When operating with rotation machines for tilling: a) Take care that protecting means are in good order operate normally; b) Do not engage PTO when working member is lowered to the soil; c) When tractor is moving perform smooth lowering of machine with rotating working members; d) Do not engage PTO, when angle of refraction in one of the cardan drive joints exceeds 22 degrees; e) When operating on stiff soils prepare cross strips for driving into the enclosure, and only after this cultivate the field longitudinally.

Operation with trailers and trailed machines

Single-axle machines like semi-trailers are coupled with tractor by TSU-2 (hydraulic pick-up hitch). Transportation of machines with the help of TSU-1Zh (crossbar) is permitted at speed up to 15 km/h, excluding the driving to the public roads, and when performing agricultural works.

ATTENTION!

Ganging-up of machines like trailers and semi-trailers with TSU-1Zh (crossbar) is strictly prohibited.

When operating with single-axle trailed machines, install additional ballast weights for additional loading of front tractor axle. If towing device is installed on tractor, it is prohibited to couple it with semi-trailers (single-axle trailers) as well as two-axle trailers having non-standard towbars.
