6.0 - LIFTING

6.1 -Checkthattheliftinggear, hooks, ropes,chains,etc.,are of sufficient capacity

for the task (see weight indicated on machine data plate and in the weights and

measures table).

6.2 - Fix hooks, ropes, chains, etc., in the three positions shown in fig. 3.

6.3 - Operate the lifting system slowly and before lifting definitively, make certain that

no deviation occurs and that there are no members of the public in the work area.

6.4 - Keep at a safe distance and do not for any reason enter areas subject to the

risk of accidental falling of the machine.

7.0 - TRANSPORT

Check that the vehicle to be used is suitable in terms of capacity, size and any other

respect stipulated in the highway code.

Position the machine in such a way that it does not protrude beyond the profile of the

vehicle,andfixitadequatelywithropes or other means so as to prevent uncontrolled

movements.

8.0 - REGULATIONS FOR SAFE USE AND THE

PREVENTION OF ACCIDENTS

8.1 - Read all the instructions before using the machine, especially those which

relate to safeguarding against physical injury. The Manufacturer accepts no

responsibility for any damage arising from improper use of the machine or failure to

observe these instructions.

It is the duty of the user to inform employees and other personnel of the directions

set out in this document (this is a legal requirement).

8.2 - Pay attention to the danger symbols shown in this manual and on the

machine.

8.3 - Adjustment, maintenance or work of any kind on the machine must be carried

outonly with the engine OFF,the machine resting on the ground,and the tractor

chocked.

FIG. 3

TEXDRIVE

TEXDRIVE - DT

8.4 - Couple the machine only to a tractor of adequate power (see technical bulletin

referring to the model in use), and with a lift unit which complies with standards

specifically for tractors.

Adhere to the maximum stipulated weight on the axle, and the total mobile weight.

8.5 - When coupling and uncoupling the machine, pay maximum attention so as to

avoid the risk of crushing.

8.6- Itis strictlyforbidden forthetractor tobe drivenby inexpertpersonnelor personnel

not in possession of a driving licence or in poor health.

8.7 - Never leave the operator position when the tractor is running.

Before leaving the tractor, lower the lift unit, stop the engine, operate the parking

brake and remove the ignition key from the control panel.

8.8 - Remember that the road-holding, steering and braking are affected by the

presence of a carried or towed machine.

8.9 - When driving on the road it is necessary to abide by the highway code of the

country in question.

8.10 - When transporting by road, with the machine lifted, put the hydraulic lift unit

control lever in the locked position.

8.11 -The operators must take position on their respective seats and place their feet

on the foot-rests (fig. 4.A) only when the tractor is stationary and chocked and

the machine is on the ground.

It is strictly forbidden to travel from one work area to another or on the road

with the lift unit raised and operators on board. It is forbidden to alight if the

machine is moving or not positioned on the ground.

8.12 - The moving parts (wheels - chains - distributors etc.) are protected by

appropriate guards, and where this is not reasonably possible, sufficient space has

been allowed so as to prevent the risk of crushing. Upon no account wear loose

clothing,whichmaybecometrapped in the parts described above during operation,

and in any event, pay maximum attention while working, as moving parts of any

machine are inherently dangerous.

8.13 - Do not remove the safety and protection devices which have been installed. If

they are removed for the purpose of making

adjustments or carrying out maintenance,

ensurethattheyarerefittedintheircorrectplace.

8.14 - Check the efficiency of the protection

devices periodically and renew them when

necessary, using only original spare parts,

which can be supplied by the Manufacturer or

its authorized dealers.

8.15 - Do not lend the machine to inexpert

persons: in the event of an accident, you may

be accountable. FIG. 4

9.0 - COUPLING TO THE TRACTOR

9.1 - The machine must be coupled to the tractor on flat ground.

9.2 - Check that the three-point linkages are of a compatible category.

9.3 - Bring the tractor up to the machine, taking care not to get between the two at

this stage, and proceed with coupling only when the tractor is stationary. Fix the

threecouplingarmswiththerelativepinsandinserttheappropriatesafetysplitpins(fig.5).

9.4 - Limit sideways movements and keep the machine parallel with the tractor,

using the stabilizer chains and arm adjustment device (fig. 5.b).

9.5 - Adjust the third point arm until the machine coupling is at right angles (fig.5.a).

9.6 - If applicable, position the support foot as shown in fig. 6.

10.0 - UNCOUPLING FROM THE TRACTOR

-position the equipment on the ground, only in a flat area;

-lower the support foot, if applicable;

-make certain that the equipment remains stable;

-removefixingpinsandplugs,takingcarenottogetbetweentheequipmentandthetractor;

-ensure again that everything is stable, bearing in mind all eventualities.

11.0 - USABLE PLANTS

This transplanter has been produced for transplanting seedlings of vegetables,

flowers, tobacco, nursery plants etc., with conical or pyramidal peat rootball; for best

results observe the dimensions shown in fig. 7. It is advisable to use seedlings with

a very moist rootball so as to accelerate drop times from the distributor and facilitate

the plant in taking root.

It is obviously best not to use too much water, so as to avoid troublesome dripping

during transplanting.

12.0 - TRAY HOLDERS

Thecup-type trays containingthe plants mustbepositioned in theappropriate rotating

tray holders. If you wish to assist the operator in extracting the plants from the cups

byfirstlooseningtheplants,itisadvisable not to loosen them too much, because the

trays are then arranged vertically, which may cause plants to fall involuntarily.

All plant trays must be removed when travelling on the road.

13.0 - LAND

You are advised to work on land which has been suitably prepared with harrows or

hoes. The land must be sufficiently fragmented and slightly compacted on the

surface.

Donot work on verylooseor very compact land, as this will makeit difficult to achieve

consistent and good quality transplanting.

Take extreme care during manoeuvres on steeply sloping land.

14.0 - OPERATORS ON BOARD

Pay particular attention to the safety regulations in points 8.11 and 8.12.

B= cm 4 ÷7

C= cm 8 ÷20

D= cm 12 ÷27

TEXDRIVE - DT

15.0 - FUNCTIONS OF THE OPERATOR

Pick up the plants from the trays and place them in the distributor (fig. 9.A). Do not

place plants with only a partial or no rootball in the distributor, as these will fall

through. Do not place plants in the rear cups of the distributor as these are

continuously opening and closing. Decide, with the tractor driver, upon a working

speed which allows sufficient time to perform the above functions properly.

Make constant visual checks of the transplant quality, and in the event of anomalies,

give the STOP signal, so that you can check the causes and take the necessary

corrective action.

16.0 - FUNCTIONS OF THE TRACTOR DRIVER

Pay particular attention to the safety regulations in points 8.11 and 8.12.

Before starting work decide with the operator(s) on a “start” and “stop” signal.

Adjust to the required speed by means of the gear change, keeping at the lowest

possible rpm.

Make certain that the tractor’s exhaust fumes are not directed at the operators and

that the silencer is completely efficient. By adhering to the above instructions, it is

possible to work with limited noise levels, thus facilitating communication between

the operators and the tractor driver.

-AVOID REVERSE MOTIONS WITH THE TRANSPLANTER STILL ON THE SOIL.

17.0 - WORK CYCLE

To maintain an optimum sequence between dropping the plant from the distributor

(fig. 9.A) and expulsion from the ploughshare (fig. 9.B) it is necessary to deposit at

least 30 plants a minute in each row.
