REGULAR USE
This is an agricultural tractor, whose function consists essentially in traction power. It is therefore specially designed to
push, pull, carry or operate some interchangeable implements for agricultural purpose, or to tow agricultural trailers.
This machine must be driven and operated by an operator suitably instructed, firmly seated and wearing a fastened seat belt.
- To be driven or operated standing or from outside the cab or the operator’s seat, or without a fastened seat belt.
- To lift persons.
- To transport persons, within or outside the cab or the operator’s seat, in any condition (work or road transport).
- To be used in hazardous atmosphere.
- To be used in forestry.
- To be equipped with front loaders if the tractor is not provided with a suitable structure to protect the operator’s seat
from falling and projected objects.
- For tractors equipped with collapsible safety frame, see specific instructions in the next pages.
WARNING: Improper use of the machine, specially on rough terrain or slopes, can make it tilt over. Pay
particular attention in case of rain, snow, ice or anyway on slippery ground. It may be necessary to step
out of the tractor to check personally ground quality. In the described conditions, always keep the load
as close as possible to the tractor and the ground.
WARNING: Do not try to get off the moving tractor, even if it is overturning, to avoid being crushed un-
der it, but remain seated with the well fastened seat belt and hold firmly the steering wheel.
WARNING: If the safety frame mounted on the tractor is the front two-post type, the tractor must always
be used with the frame in upright (vertical) position.

SAFETY FRAME
[4.1.q]
Use
• Before using the tractor ensure that the safety frame is
not damaged, that it is securely fastened to the tractor
and, if a hinged section is fitted, that it is in upright
position and secured.
• If the safety frame has been removed from the trac-
tor, or collapsed for a specific operation, it must be
refitted or erected immediately using proper tools and
applying the recommended torque value.
• DO NOT ATTACH chains, ropes or cables to the safety
frame for pulling purposes; this will cause the tractor Fig.2-2
to tip backwards. Always pull from the tractor drawbar.
• Seat belts must always be worn and adjusted snugly
except when operating with a folded down safety
frame (Fig.2-2).
• From time to time, check the seat belt for damage and
replace it if worn or damaged (Fig.2-2).

SAFETY - STARTING UP
Warn bystanders before starting the engine.
Before starting, walk around the whole tractor and any
attached equipment. Make sure that no one is under, on,
or close to the tractor or equipment. Let other workers
and bystanders know you are starting up and don’t start
until everyone is clear of the tractor, implements and
towed equipment.
Clean your shoes and wipe your hands before climbing on.
Use handrails, grab handles, ladders or steps (as provided)
when mounting or dismounting.

Safety notes
Make sure that the tractor dual brake pedals are locked
together at all times unless you are making turns in the
field which require independent use of the brakes. Make
sure the brakes are properly adjusted so that both brakes
engage at the same time.
Adjust the seat and fasten your seat belt (if applicable, Fig.2-10b
according the description in this book),
Always start the engine from the operator’s seat, after de-
pressing the clutch pedal, with all the transmission levers

DIRECTIONS TO AVOID IMPROPER USE OF THE TRACTOR
WORKING IN SAFETY Do not start the tractor without ensuring a perfect com-
mand of speed and steering controls (Fig.2-14).
WARNING: An unbalanced tractor could over-
turn and cause injury or death. If required, put
ballast weights on their front support and on
rear wheels as described in this section of the
Operation chapter. Ballast weights must be used
according to the manufacturer’s directions.
NEVER add extra counterweights to compensate
for an overload. It is better to reduce the load.
Make sure your tractor is ready for the job it must do.
Know the rated load capacities of your tractor and never
exceed them. Be certain that any equipment or imple-
ments you intend to use DO NOT exceed the load rating
of your tractor. Be sure the tractor and implement PTO
rev/min match. Fig.2-14

Brakes
The tractor is braked by means of two pedals (1 - Fig.
4-15) which separately control the brake of each rear
wheel. Braking on one side assists steering in tight
manoeuvres. By locking the rear wheel on the inside of
a curve, you can virtually turn the tractor around on its
own axis. For simultaneous braking during normal use
and for on-road use, simply lock the two pedals togeth-
er with the special brake coupling lock (2 - Fig. 4-16).
Warning: If you notice the brakes becoming,
less effective, identify the cause immediately
and repair.
Warning: Always keep the brake pedals cou-
pled with the relative lock (2) before leaving
the field and driving on public roads.
Front brakes
On request, the tractors can be equipped with a braking
system for the front axle. This type of braking system is
of particular use when the tractor is driven on the road

Operation
Safety structure
The tractor is equipped with a roll-bar safety structure
mounted behind the driving seat and approved accor-
ding to the CURRENT OCSE and EEC STANDARDS. The
protective structure is formed by two parts, one upper
and one lower, which are bolted together.
The tractor must only be used with the protec-
tive structure in the upright position (Fig. 4-49).
WARNING: The tractor could tip up if used
incorrectly. Protection is only guarante-
ed when the protective structure is in its
original upright position with the fixing
bolts tightened as described in the assembly
instructions.
WARNING: It is absolutely forbidden to tie
towing chains or ropes to the safety frame Fig.4-49

It is advisable, however, to periodically check the level
of battery acid and to add distilled water if required.
If you need to top up too often, have the battery
charging system checked.
Check the level of the electrolyte in each element. If
topping up is required, proceed as follows, with the engine
stopped, the battery at rest and cold, and the tractor
parked on level ground. Fig.5-65a - Front battery (1)

- Keep the battery clean and dry, particularly on top.
- If the battery acid must be topped up, use distilled
water only,
- Make sure that the cable terminal nuts are well fixed
to the battery terminals.
- Always use a wrench and not pliers to tighten and
loosen the terminal nuts.
- Smear terminals with petroleum jelly (not grease) to
protect them from oxidation.
- Never let the battery run completely down. If possi-
ble, recharge monthly.

HC
DANGER
HC tractors are designed for specific work. The tractor’s structure features a high height-width ratio,
resulting in an unfavourable barycentre position. For this reason a HC tractor has a lower stability than
a standard tractor. This kind of tractor should therefore be used only on perfectly level ground, without
any hindrances and unevenness, and should be driven very carefully, avoiding sharp turns and high
speed.
DANGER
Any trailed objects should be hitched up in the lowest position.
Due to the particular structure of the HC tractor, required for the high ground clearance needed for
special agricultural works, the height of implements to the ground is generally greater that in standard
tractors. Therefore the towing stability could be lower than in standard tractors. Refer and pay particu-
lar attention to the safety rules concerning overturning in the Safety Rules section of this manual.
