DRIVING THE TRACTOR

Always sit in the driver’s seat while starting or

driving the tractor.

When driving on public roads, have

consideration for other road users. Pull in to the

side of the road occasionally to allow any

following traffic to pass. Do not exceed the legal

speed limit set in your country for agricultural

tractors.

Use a rotating beacon when driving on public

roads to indicate that the vehicle is slow moving

and is a possible hazard.

Keep the tractor in the same gear when going

downhill as would be used when going uphill. Do

not coast or freewheel down hills.

SECTION 1 -- GENERAL INFORMATION AND SAFETY

SERVICING THE TRACTOR

Unqualified persons should not remove or

attempt to adjust a pump, injector, nozzle or any

other part of the fuel injection or hydraulic

systems. Failure to follow these instructions can

result in serious injury.

• Do not use your hand to check for leaks. Use a

piece of cardboard or paper to search for leaks.

• Stop the engine and relieve pressure before

connecting or disconnecting lines.

The cooling system operates under pressure

which is controlled by the expansion tank cap. It

is dangerous to remove the cap while the system

is hot. Always turn the cap slowly to the first stop

and allow the pressure to escape before

removing the cap entirely. Never remove the cap

from the top of the radiator unless the expansion

Do not smoke while refuelling the tractor. Keep

any type of open flame away.

1. Proofmeter / tachometer -- Fig. 10

This shows engine speed and total time to a

maximum of six digits. The figures on the black

background show total working hours and those on

the red background (extreme right) tenths of an hour.

The green and blue sectors show the engine rev/min

reached at standard power take--off speeds of 540,

540E and 1000 rev/min.

2. Engine coolant temperature gauge -- Fig. 11

Green area = normal temperature.

White area = temperature too low.

Red area = engine overheating

In this case, slow the engine to minimum revs (donot

stop it) and, if the light stays on, have the cooling

system checked.

3. Fuel gauge -- Fig. 12

It shows the fuel level in the tank.

When the tank is full, the needle is at the extreme

right.

When the fuel level falls below¹/₄, the needle moves

into the red area.

SECTION 2 -- CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

CAB

TRE0013A

This section of the Manual deals only with the use of the heated and ventilated cab.

ATTENTION

The cab is an integral part of the Structure of the Tractor.

The cab structure must in no way be modified

It is therefore prohibited to drill, weld or anyhow connect any device to it that would impair its intended operation.

Any damage due to accident, fire, theft or corrosion to the original structure could make it inefficient and lessen

its safety.

It is therefore necessary for specialized personnel to evaluate the damage and, if necessary, have the damaged

parts replaced.

All the internal parts, such as the operator’s seat, including any seat belts, must be carefully checked and must

show no sign of any damage whatsoever.

The cab must be replaced in the event of overturning.

All the internal parts, such as the operator’s seat, including any seat belts, must be carefully checked and

must show no sign of any damage whatsoever.

All damaged parts must be replaced.

IN THE EVENT OF OVERTURNING, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR, WELD OR STRAIGHTEN THE CAB,

contact your Dealer’s specialized personnel instead
