n Loosen the 2 screws (a).
n Pull the tractive unit protection (b)
out laterally under the screws and
remove the drive shaft (c).
If the PTO is no longer used:
n slide the tractive unit protection
over the tractive unit and slide it
laterally under the screws.
n Tighten the screws.
Engaging the cutting
mechanism or other driven
accessories
n Start the engine.
n Set the throttle lever into the
middle position.
Engage
n Switch on the PTO-switch.
n Move throttle to .
n Using the central hydraulics, lower
the cutting movement or
acessories (according to use).
Note
The indicator needle should be in the
green area of the revolution counter.
Disengage
n Switch off the PTO-switch.
n Using the central hydraulics, lift the
cutting movement or acessories
(according to use).
Note
When the tractor is being operated
with the PTO, the safety lock feature
will
– switch off the engine automatically
if the driver leaves the driver seat,
– automatically deactivate the PTO
if the unit is driven in reverse.
To turn on the engage switch (PTO)
on again, you must first switch it off
and then switch it on again.
Important note
The PTO does not normally work
if the tractor is driven in reverse.
In order to employ PTO even when
driving in reverse, the PTO switch
operation must be switched on for
driving backwards.

With the PTO switch for reverse
driving, it is possible to use the PTO,
even when reversing.
n First of all, the PTO must be
switched on using the PTO
switch.
n In order to activate the function,
press the PTO switch at the front
downwards. The PTO switch for
reverse driving lights up.
Important note
After switching on, this function
remains active until the ignition key is
turned to OFF for at least 20 sec,
regardless how often the PTO is
switched on and off using the PTO
switch in the meantime. If the PTO
switch for reverse driving lights up,
the system is activated.
Using the upper coupling
hook
Fig. 20
The upper coupling hook serves to
secure the upper transverse link of
the 3 point attachment device if this
is not used.
n Hold the upper transverse link (a)
upwards, lift the hook rod (b) and
slide it fully to the left so that it
slides vertically into the right slot
of the fixing clamps.
n Lower the upper transverse link
into the hooks on the rod.
n In order to unclamp the upper
transverse link, lift the upper
transverse link from the securing
hooks and then slide the hook rod
completely to the right and swivel
it downwards.
Using the towing device
Fig. 21
Use the towing device (1) only to pull
acessories hanging at the rear (e.g.
trolleys, trailers) or to pull objects
away.
Bring the upper transverse links (2)
of the 3 point attachment device into
the highest position so that they do
not collide with the attached
acessory (e.g) trailer.

Weight distribution on the
tractor
If accessories are mounted on the
front or rear of the tractor, the weight
distribution alters correspondingly.
If a rear-mounted accessory is lifted
into the transporting position, the
tractor's centre of gravity shifts to
the rear causing reduced steerability
and stability of the tractor.
In order to counteract this
dislocation, corresponding
counterweights should be attached
to the tractor in the form of cast iron
(front weights) or in the form of rear
ballast containers. However, it is
only necessary to mount a sufficient
a counterweight so as to achieve
good traction, steerability and
stability. Too much weight overloads
the engine and the tractor gear.
When attaching counter weights
onto the tractor, it may be necessary
to increase air pressure to the tyres.
