Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

This tractor fulfils EC Directives governing electromagnetic radiation.


However, interference can also be caused by auxiliary devices, which may not correspond to the
standard regulations.
Because electromagnetic interference can seriously affect the function of the vehicle and/or give
rise to dangerous situations, you MUST observe the following instructions:

● Ensure that all equipment from third-party manufacturers fitted on the tractor carries the CE
mark.

● The maximum output level of equipment that emits radiation (radios, telephones, etc.) must not
exceed the limits prescribed in the country in which you are operating the tractor.

● The electromagnetic field created by auxiliary equipment must never exceed 24V/m in proximity
to electronic components.

Disregard of these regulations immediately invalidates the New Holland warranty.

SECTION 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION AND SAFETY

INTENDED APPLICATION
This tractor is intended primarily for use in agricultural, rural community or forestry operations (intended
application). The primary function of the tractor is to deliver tractive power and can be used for pulling, pushing,
carrying or operating defined items of equipment and machinery, or for pulling a trailer.
Any usage extending beyond the scope of the above list is defined as improper use. The manufacturer declines to
accept any liability for resultant damage and injury. The operator is solely liable for such risk.
Correct usage also involves strict compliance with the operating, maintenance and repair instructions specified by
the manufacturer.
This New Holland tractor can only be used, maintained and repaired by people who are familiar with the special
characteristics of this vehicle and who have been advised of the relevant safety regulations (accident prevention).
Due compliance is mandatory with all applicable accident prevention specifications and with other generally
recognised directives and guidelines governing technical safety, health & safety at work and road traffic safety.
The manufacturer rejects any liability for damage or injury resulting from independent modifications made to this
vehicle by the operator.

RULES FOR GENERAL SAFETY


! AND FOR ACCIDENT PREVENTION !

● In addition to the instructions contained in these operator's instructions, you must also observe the rules governing
general safety and accident prevention.

● Comply with relevant legislation whenever you are using public highways.

● Before starting work, first familiarise yourself with all the equipment and controls and their functions. It is too late to do this
once you have started working with the equipment.

● Before setting off, check the immediate area around the vehicle (e.g. children). Ensure you have a clear field of view.

● Never leave the engine running in confined spaces. Ensure there is adequate ventilation.

● Exercise caution when handling fuels. Increased risk of fire. Never fill the fuel tank near naked flames or near flying
sparks. Do not smoke while refuelling.

● Before refuelling, switch off engine and remove key from ignition. Never top up fuel tank in confined areas. Wipe up
spilled fuel immediately.

● To prevent the risk of fire, always keep the vehicle in a clean condition.

● Exercise caution when handling battery acid (toxic and corrosive).

! TRANSPORTING PEOPLE !

● Never carry passengers unless a legally acceptable passenger seat is provided.

● No other form of passenger transport is permitted.

● Children must only ever be transported in specially designed seats (available commercially).

1-9
SECTION 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION AND SAFETY

! DRIVING OPERATION !
● Always adapt vehicle speed to suit prevailing conditions. When driving uphill or downhill, and when traversing slopes, avoid
any sudden cornering. When cornering, always disengage the differential lock. Never disengage the clutch when driving
downhill.

● Connect up trailers and/or equipment properly. The driving characteristics, steerability and braking action of this vehicle are
all affected by the presence of towed equipment, trailers or ballast weights. You must therefore ensure at all times that you
have enough strength to steer and brake the vehicle safely.

● Pay due attention to the maximum permitted axle loads and the gross tractor weight.

● When cornering while towing or carrying implements, pay due attention to the additional size and inertia weight of that
equipment.

! LEAVING THE TRACTOR !


● When leaving the tractor, always ensure that it is not able to roll away. (Apply parking brake, chock the
wheels.)

● Remove the ignition key and lock the cab.

● Never leave the tractor unattended while the engine is running.

● Never leave the driver’s platform/cab while the tractor is in motion.

● Before exiting the tractor, lower the implement or attachment unit to the ground.

! MOUNTED EQUIPMENT !
● When connecting up trailers or implements, exercise particular caution - and never step between tractor
and implement.

● Secure trailer and implements to prevent them from rolling away.

● Only start up the tractor once all guards are attached and are in their correct protective positions.

! OPERATING THE PTO !


● Before installing and removing the propshaft, always first switch off the engine.

● When operating the PTO, never allow anyone to stand near the rotating PTO shaft or drive shaft.

● Protective guards must be fitted over the drive shaft and PTO stub shaft. Refer to Page 3 - 9.

● Implements with a high inertia torque do not stop immediately after the PTO shaft has been switched off.
Use propshafts with an overrun sprag unit. Before cleaning or carrying out adjustments, always wait until
the implement has finished working and has come to a complete stop.

● Immediately after removing the propshaft, cover the PTO shaft with a protective cap.

fluid does penetrate your skin, always seek immediate medical attention, otherwise serious infections
might occur.

● Dispose of waste oil, fuel and used filters in accordance with local legislation. Do not drain oil into the
ground or the drainage/sewerage system. Proceed in an environmentally aware manner.

● Tighten the wheel nuts after the number of operating hours specified in this manual. Refer to Page 3 - 62.

● Before carrying out any repair work to the electrical system on this vehicle, always first disconnect the
battery earth/ground strap. Refer to Page 5 - 4.

● Only use genuine parts made by the manufacturer of this vehicle. All spare parts must comply with the
technical requirements of the vehicle manufacturer.

! HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS !
● Serious injury can result from exposure to hazardous chemicals, or physical contact with them. The fluids,
oils, paints, adhesives, coolants, etc. used on your vehicle can be dangerous.

● Always consider the environmental implications before carrying out any maintenance work on the vehicle,
and prior to disposing of old fluids and waste oil. NEVER drain oil or operating fluids into the ground or into
containers which might develop leaks.

● For instructions on proper disposal, you should consult your local environmental authorities, a recycling
company or that company’s appointed agents.

! BASIC RULE !
● Always inspect your tractor before starting it up to ensure it is safe for use on roads and during working
operations.

1. CLUTCH PEDAL - For detailed information


see the Clutch Pedal Function section on See
page 2 - 54 in this manual.

2. BRAKE PEDALS – When the brake pedal


interlock is applied, both brake pedals are
linked together. The left-hand brake pedal
brakes the left-hand back wheel, and the
right-hand brake pedal brakes the right-hand
back wheel. As a steering aid, these pedals
can be applied individually when driving on
open terrain (off-road).

! ATTENTION !
When driving on roads, these brake pedals must be
interlocked. This assures uniform braking action and
maximum braking action.

3. ACCELERATOR PEDAL – The accelerator


pedal is used to accelerate or retard the
vehicle (release to let momentum take effect).

4. FOOT PEDAL FOR BACK PRESSURE

To apply the parking brake pull the lever upwards


as far as it will go.

SS99G057

To drive the tractor off, release the parking brake (see


note). Press button at end of handle INWARDS then
lower the lever to release the parking brake.
The telltale on the instrument panel will light up when
the ignition key is turned to the ON position, and the
parking brake is still applied. The warning light goes
out after the parking brake has been released.

IMPORTANT: If an attempt is made to set off in


the tractor with the parking brake applied, the
FMGR (vehicle/transmission controller)
responds, so that if the accelerator or
temporary cruise control is operated, will only
allow the tractor to be driven at a speed of
2 km/h.
For this reason, always ensure that the
parking brake is completely released when
setting off.
NOTE: The cruise control is disabled while the
parking brake is applied.

SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

STARTING PROCESS
! ATTENTION !
The tractor can only be started while the driver is
seated on the driving seat.

The tractor is equipped with an auxiliary starting


system. Use of the auxiliary starting aid is
temperature-dependent and a telltale (6) lights up
whenever this is required.
STEP 1

Turn ignition switch to the ON position.

Charge/Oil pressure telltale (5+2) and Telltales


for all-wheel drive (7) and applied parking brake 1
(1) light up. The fuel gauge (3) on the instrument 7 2
panel can be read as soon as the ignition switch
is in the ON position.

STEP 2 6
Wait a couple of seconds until the electronics
safety check has been run through. 5
Wait until the telltale for the auxiliary starting
system (6) has gone out. 4 3
STEP 3
SS04B322

Turn the ignition switch to the START


position. As soon as the engine starts,
release the ignition key.
All the telltales must go out except for those indicating
that the handbrake is applied and that all-wheel drive
is selected.

2 - 45
SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

STEP 4
Check that all telltales indicate normal operating
status and that the coolant temperature gauge is
within its central range once the engine has warmed
up.

IMPORTANT: If any of these telltales or


gauges indicates the presence of a fault,
SWITCH OFF THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY
AND DETERMINE THE CAUSE.

IMPORTANT: If the engine starts up then


stalls, you must wait for the engine comes to a
complete stop before turning the ignition key
back into its Start position.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT engage the starter


motor continuously for more than 10 seconds.
Between each starting operation, wait for
30 seconds to enable the starter motor to cool
down.

IMPORTANT: It is not necessary to "HEAT UP"


the engine while the tractor is stationary.
STEP 5
Pre-select direction of travel with Shuttle lever and
select driving strategy (Automatic or Manual mode).
Telltale for all-wheel drive goes out.
Release handbrake. Actuate accelerator pedal or
cruise control. The tractor starts moving.

IMPORTANT: If the transmission oil still has


not reached operating temperature and a
direction of travel is pre-selected, * appears
on the display panel.
During this time, only restricted driving
operation is possible within a range of 0-8
km/h.
During this time, the clutch pedal has to be
actuated for any change in direction of travel.
The status of a monitored system is displayed by
means of warning lights/telltales and graphic symbols
on the graphic display (DMD), indicating warning
messages and/or a need for maintenance.
If any of these telltales light up while the engine is
running, maintenance or repair work is required,
and/or the desired operating status has not been
reached (e.g. pneumatic system).
The function of these telltales is described in the

SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

TRANSMISSION ACTUATION
The tractor is equipped with a continuously variable
transmission (CVT) based on hydrostatic-
mechanical power-splitting and controlled by the
very latest kind of electronic control unit.
Every vehicle speed can be selected across a
continuously variable range using the accelerator
pedal or the cruise control button or on
the AutoController.
DIRECTION OF TRAVEL is performed using the
Shuttle lever on the steering column switch, or the
button on the AutoController, without actuating the
clutch.
Operating the clutch pedal
The clutch pedal is used to disconnect the drive
temporarily. When the clutch pedal is depressed,
torque transmission to the vehicle drive is reduced
in a gradual manner, and can be restored by
releasing the clutch again. The powerflow is
interrupted from approx. 80% of pedal travel.
If the vehicle is in ‘Cold Condition’ (display * on the
performance monitor), the clutch function is
restricted to ON/OFF, meaning that no progressive
action (i.e. intermediate position) is possible in this
case.
Speed Ranges
3 speed ranges are available:
0 - 14 km/h, 0 - 25 km/h, 0 - max km/h.
By simultaneous actuation of the Shift key (1),
and the button or on the AutoController,
the speed ranges can be changed.
Changing operating ranges while vehicle is in
motion

The operating range can be changed by
operating the controls while briefly taking your
foot off the accelerator pedal.
In cruise control mode, these changes are
effective immediately. SS06G026

SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Full-load potentiometer
Using the full-load potentiometer the engine speed
reduction can be set within the full-load range from
0 (no engine speed control) to 700 rpm (max.
engine speed control) before the ratio is reduced.

potentiometer is switched on.

SS02K035

As a general rule, it is possible to say of this engine


speed reduction function that it serves as a key
indicator for the drive strategy.
Either save fuel or achieve max. work rate.
With manual transmissions, the driver determines
the level of engine speed suppression through the
timing of each powershift operation.
Thus, drivers oriented towards consumption change
gear when the engine is at 1400 rpm (low
consumption) for example, and drivers oriented
towards performance change gear at 2100 rpm (max.
performance).
With TVT, the setting on the full-load potentiometer is
an essential component of the driving strategy.

2 - 55
SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Explanations on engine suppression:

● The engine suppression facility only works in


the full-load range.

● If load continues to rise, (on an uphill gradient


or harder ground....), the engine speed
reduces.

● Using the full-load potentiometer, the driver


can select the time and engine speed at
which the gear ratio should be reduced,
thereby preventing any further reduction in
engine speed.

● There is a choice of settings: 0 - 10.

● In setting 10: Engine speed is reduced to 1400


rpm and kept there (by ratio reduction).
Benefit: This is where fuel economy is most
favourable.

● In setting 0: Engine speed is held to 2100 rpm.


Benefit: Operation at nominal speed. Nominal
power is available at all times.

● In the part-load range, the setting of the full-


load potentiometer has no impact. In this
case, the vehicle control unit (FMGR)
automatically establishes the optimum
operating status.

Function of the full-load potentiometer is also
assured in PTO mode. For mounted implements
which need to be operated at standard speed,
select a setting of between 0 and 1.
Mounted implements which do not require constant
speeds can also be operated at higher settings (2-
10) to achieve optimum fuel economy during
operation.
Transporting
Max. vehicle speed and/or max. vehicle
performance can be achieved within the range of
low full-load potentiometer settings.
If these max. levels are not required and if instead
the emphasis is on minimum fuel consumption, it is
advisable to use higher full-load potentiometer
settings.
Traction effort
Max. work rate is achieved from setting 2 upwards.
If fuel economy is a high priority, select higher
settings than this (up to 10).

2 - 57
SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Cruise Control
For both forwards and reverse directions of travel,
depending on the vehicle speed range selected, a
maximum forwards speed of 50 (40), 25 or 14 km/h
is possible, with a maximum reverse speed of 25 or
14 km/h.
In every speed range and each direction of travel,
an independent cruise control setting can therefore
be set.
If the cruise control is active and the stored cruise
control setting reads ≠ (not equal to) 0, only the
vehicle speed range switch can be used to change
between the different saved speed settings without
deactivating the cruise control system.

IMPORTANT: Before starting the tractor:


A. The red button (2) must be completely
visible and indicates locking position of
coupling pin.
B. The operating lever (1) must be
horizontal.
C. The coupling pin (3) must have fully 2
engaged in the guide sleeve. Do not start
towing or even set off until this pin has 3
engaged properly. 1

SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

SWINGING DRAWBAR
The drawbar can be set to various lengths. Refer to
the following pages for how to prepare this.

IMPORTANT: For the following jobs, the


drawbar must be blocked in its central
position:
A. Pulling implements at
transport speeds of 15 km/h
or above in the field.
B. Working with PTO shaft.
C. Reversing the tractor with
a mounted implement.

! ATTENTION !
The front end of the tractor can start to rise if an
SS97M097
implement is incorrectly attached. Only attach to the
drawbar. Use the 3-point linkage only for equipment for
which it is intended and not as a drawbar.

! ATTENTION !
For ballast purposes, apply loads primarily to the wheels
of the implement, in a similar way to loading a vehicle with
grain. Avoid overloading the drawbar. To improve stability,
attach weights to front end. Release the clutch gently, set
off smoothly and apply the brakes carefully to prevent the
tractor/trailer from jackknifing. To allow trailers to be pulled
on public highways, you require a special permit which is
supplied with the tractor documentation.

2 - 69
SECTION 2 – CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Preparing the drawbar


Drawbar swinging ranges for PTO
operation in conjunction with three-
point linkage
The swinging and longitudinally adjustable drawbar can
be set to different distances measured between end of
PTO shaft and centrepoint of trailer hitch pin. Every
drawbar position equates to one of the distances shown
on the following table.
Positions A and B are used for implements operated
by a PTO shaft. The adjustable drawbar eliminates
the need for any drawbar extensions to be fitted.
The drawbar can also be fitted in either of two offset
positions.
Refer to equipment operating instructions and the
following table and illustration of drawbar positions
and towing loads.

DRAWBAR POSITIONS “A” “B” “C”


MEASUREMENT BETWEEN 250 mm 320 mm 400 mm
END OF PTO SHAFT AND
HOLE FOR PLUG-IN PIN
SS97M098

To set the longitudinal drawbar position, the rear


retaining pins and drawbar rotary mounting pins
are pulled out from the front.
4
Insert the drawbar mounting pin (4) through the
FIRST hole (1) in the drawbar. This yields a
precise distance of 400 mm between the end of
the PTO shaft stub and the centrepoint of the hole
in the drawbar for the trailer drawbar pin.
When the bearing swivel pin is inserted through
the SECOND hole (2) in the drawbar, you obtain 3
a distance of 320 mm to the end of the PTO shaft.
2 1
When the bearing pin is inserted through the
THIRD hole (3) in the drawbar, you obtain a SS97M099

distance of 250 mm.


Once the drawbar has been adjusted to the
correct setting, fit the bearing pin and secure with
the spring-mounted connector.
When using the swinging drawbar on tractors with
a three-point linkage, the lower links should be
raised as far as possible using the actuator wheel
for POSITION CONTROL. In this position, the
device cannot collide with the drawbar as it
swings from side to side.
When using a three-point linkage, the drawbar can be
stored in its extreme forward position.

lights in strict accordance with local legislation. Fit the
SMV triangular symbol to denote slow-moving
vehicles in a prominent position. Move into the side of
the road to allow faster moving vehicles to overtake
easily. Before turning off the road, reduce speed and
use your turn indicator signals.

Your tractor has yellow hazard flashers and a


direction of travel indicator at front and back. In
some countries, it is equipped with a triangular
symbol (SMV) used to denote slow-moving
vehicles. Ensure that all the equipment provided for
the safety and protection of the tractor driver and
other road users is correctly installed.
Use the hazard flashers in strict accordance with
applicable road traffic legislation. Any other road
user approaching the tractor must be able to see

Safe operation of the PTO

! ATTENTION !
PTO trailed equipment can cause serious
injury. Both the PTO shaft and the engine
should be switched off before work is carried
out either at or in the vicinity of the PTO shaft
or before work or cleaning is undertaken on
the trailed equipment.

! ATTENTION !
When the PTO shaft operation is stationary or
if the tractor is left with the PTO shaft running,
care should be taken to stay back from mobile
parts as these represent a potential safety
threat.

The following safety regulations should be observed


to ensure the safe running of the PTO shaft when
implements are attached to the drawbar.

● The drawbar should be attached to drawbar


holder using the connecting pins.

● The implement’s drawbars should be


attached to the tractor’s drawbar prior to
connecting the drive shaft to the tractor’s
PTO shaft.

● Connect the implement’s drive shaft to the


tractor. Check that the drive shaft is at the
correct length and has unrestricted telescopic
movement. It is important to have the drive
shaft at the correct length so as to prevent it
from striking through or falling apart as the
tractor or equipment change operating
position.

● The three point linkage should be raised as


high as possible when using the drawbar in
order to avoid possible contact between the
lower links and the implement.

IMPORTANT: Please observe the manufacturer’s


recommendations when adjusting and aligning the
implement and its drive shaft to the tractor.

Set up of lower links


The lower links should be set up so that the device
can operate at the required depth and the lower links
can follow the contours of the ground accordingly.

NOTE: Before adjustments are made to the


hydraulics, ensure that tyre air pressure levels,
ballast and wheel equipment are all correctly in
order. Also see the section on tyre air pressures
and load-bearing ratings on See page 3 - 55 of this
manual and the section on TRACTOR
BALLASTING on See page 3 - 67 of this manual.

Set up of lower links using lift rods


The lower links are set as follows:

STEP 1
The engine should be switched off only when the 1
tractor is situated on solid ground in a horizontal
position and the three point attachment should be
1
lowered to its lowest setting.
STEP 2

NOTE: The length of both lifting rods (1), 2


fitted with locking wheel nut, can be
adjusted. To adjust the height of the lower
links, lift and twist the grip bushings (2), then
lock back into place. (Anti-twist safety

STEP 4
By fitting the lugs at right angles to both lift rods the
lower links have zero-clearance.

SS97G263
If the lugs are positioned in a longitudinal direction
the lower link can be moved through the longitudinal
hole. (Clearance).
This position allows a certain level of freedom of
movement for the lower links. There is no
occurrence of warping when working with land-
based implements (e.g. sowing machines).

Set up of lower links using adjustable support struts

! ATTENTION !
If the adjustable support struts are suspended
in the lower pins, ensure that the setting of the
lower links is only at maximum lifting height
(transport position).
Any other setting can lead to the 3 point lever
system being damaged when extended. (e.g.
deterioration of EDC control quality).

If the adjustable support struts (1) are suspended in


the lower pins (2), this produces a lateral pendulum
stroke of the lower links of approx 150 mm. When 2
the power lift is lifted, this activates the shut-off
function (transport setting) in the upper section.

SS00C103
If the adjustable support struts (1) are suspended in
the upper pins (3) this produces shut-off of the lower
links across the whole lifting range (setting for 3
mounted implements).

SECTION 3 – FIELD OPERATION

If there is no implement or field rail attached to the


three point hitch system, then the lower links can be
fixed by reconnecting the linch pins (2).

NOTE: Only use the linch pin with trailed


equipment when fixing the lower links.

SS03D025
Longitudinal adjustment of the support struts (1)
alters the shoulder length of the lower links (e.g.
between cat. II and cat. III or vice versa).
Switching between cat. II and cat. III implements is 1
done by simply re-inserting the pins (3) (with spring

Activating the automatic support strut (if fitted)


An adjustable chain and spring mechanism is used to
deactivate the support strut. The length of the chain
can be adjusted by attaching various chain links to the
hook on the rear mudguard.

Fixed setting
The chain must be fitted with the correct chain link
so that it can hang loose when the three point hitch
linkage is fully lowered and the spring is not under
tension. The support strut is locked using the fixed
setting.

SC04A183
Pendulum setting
The chain must be fitted with the correct chain link
so that it can hang loose when the three point hitch
linkage is fully lowered and the spring is not under
tension. The top flap on the support strut is kept
open by this. The support strut is then free to swing
back and forth in a pendulum setting.
When the linkage is raised, the chain slackens and
the support strut is locked when transporting
equipment.

SC04A184
Longitudinal adjustment of the support strut alters
the shoulder length of the lower links from cat. 2 to
cat. 3. 2
Dismantle retaining ring (1) from pin (3). Swivel 1

OPERATING THE ELECTRONIC EDC LIFTING EQUIPMENT CONTROL


The electronic 3-point hitch control is made up of the
control panel, an electronics box, two force measuring
bolts, the position sensor and a control unit.
As part of the optional slip control equipment, the
radar sensor is a further component of the EDC.
The EDC can be operated in two operating modes:
1) POSITION CONTROL and 2) TRACTION CONTROL
In position control mode, the power lift moves in
accordance with the rpm setting at the nominal value
adjustment wheel. In traction control mode, the EDC
works in such a way as to allow the implement to
exercise a similar traction on the tractor according to
changing ground conditions and terrain.
The EDC is also fitted with a built-in self-diagnosis
system.

1. HYDRAULICS MASTER -
The hydraulics master can be used to switch
off the power supply for all remote valves
and EDC actuations.
Switch positions:
0 = EDC and remote valves
switched off
centred = remote valves switched on
down = EDC and remote valves 1
switched on

IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentional activation of SC06J009


the power lift or the electrical remote valves, the
hydraulics master must always be switched off
when travelling on roads.

A. Raising - By pressing the button (A) the
power lift is raised from its working position
into its transport position (it is raised only up to
the set lifting limitation, the speed of lifting
cannot be adjusted).
SS06G028

B Lowering - By pressing the button (B) the lifting


gear is lowered from the transport position to the
working position (corresponding to the setting at
the adjustment wheel). By pressing the button
(B) again, the lower setting on the nominal value
wheel is crossed. When the button is released
the power lift returns to the nominal value set.

NOTE: The lifting and lowering operating


procedures can be stopped by actuating button (A).
If button (A or B) is actuated a second time, the
power lift will start off in the direction selected.

NOTE: The speed of lowering can be set in a


continuously variable manner.

7. LIFT LIMITATION - This rotary knob is used


set the maximum transport height of the
power lift. It limits the transport height when 8 7 9
using the nominal value wheel or RAISE
button. The 0 setting allows the power lift to
rise to only 30% of its lifting height whereas
the 10 setting allows for the maximum lifting
height. The lifting height can be adjusted
across a continuously variable range using
settings 0-10.
8. POSITION, TRACTION and MIXED
CONTROL – This rotary knob allows the
settings for position, traction and mixed
control to be regulated. SC04A197

A. Position control - Position control is actuated by


turning the rotary knob all the way to the right to
setting 10. The power lift moves exactly according to
the rpm setting on the nominal value adjustment
wheel. The actual value of the position sensor is
used to control the power lift.
B. Traction control - The maximum traction control is
achieved by turning the rotary knob all the way to the
left to setting 0. The traction on the force measuring
pins is used 100% to control the power lift.
C. Mixed control - If the rotary knob is situated in the
range between 0 and 9, the traction and the actual
value of the position sensor, dependent on the
setting, are used to control the power lift.
E.g: At setting 5, 50% of the traction and 50% of the
actual value of the position sensor are used.
IMPORTANT: With add-on PTO equipment, set the lift
limitation to a level that does not overstep the
authorised level of bend in the drive shaft.
9. LOWERING SPEED - This rotary knob is used to set continuously variably the lowering speed of the power lift by using
the nominal value adjustment wheel or the LOWER button.
At position 0 lowering the power lift is not possible – TRANSPORT LOCK.

IMPORTANT: If rapid retraction is activated, the power


lift is lowered at maximum lowering speed.

SECTION 3 – FIELD OPERATION

Working in traction control


Working in in traction control mode works in such a
way as to allow the implement to exercise a similar
traction on the tractor according to changing ground
conditions.

IMPORTANT: Adjustments to traction control can


only be made when vehicle is being operated in
the field.

STEP 1
The EDC system is activated and the power lift is in
transport position. Set the rotary knob for position 1 2
and traction control (1) to setting 0 and also the
rotary knob for speed lowering (2) to setting 0. The SC04A199
nominal value adjustment wheel should be set to
approx. 6.
STEP 2
Actuate the Raise/Lower button on the
AutoController. Turn the lowering speed rotary knob
as far right as needed to set the required lowering
speed. The power lift will lower to the implement
depth set.

NOTE: So as not to impair the control function, the


lowering speed rotary knob should be set to setting
5 at least.
STEP 2
Turn the nominal value adjustment wheel as far left as
needed to set the required implement depth.
STEP 2
Gradually turn the position/traction control rotary knob
to the right until the corresponding implement depth
has been reached.
If the implement depth originally set changes, use the
nominal value adjustment wheel to correct this.
STEP 2
Set the lift limitation rotary knob to the extension
height required.
STEP 2
To temporarily lift the equipment without changing the
setting on the nominal value adjustment wheel,
actuate the raise/lower button on the AutoController
(transport position).
To lower the equipment again actuate the raise/lower
button.

Slip control (if fitted)


As part of the SLIP CONTROL optional equipment, the radar sensor can supply the tractor’s wheel slip.

3 - 28
SECTION 3 – FIELD OPERATION

Wheel slip can be set to a range between 0 -10 using


the actuator wheel (3). The central LCD display
indicates the actual slip value. Working within the
optimum slip range leads to a reduction in earth
compression and fuel consumption, extends tyre
service life and also reduces running costs.

Working with slip control


Slip control is switched on and off using switch (1). If
the green telltale (2) on the control panel flashes,
the slip value is either too high or too low and the
power lift is regulating it.

NOTE: If the tractor is stationary for more than 30 1


seconds, then the slip control needs to be reset.

IMPORTANT: Keep the sensor’s radiating 2


surface clean. Remove any layers of dirt 3
with a plastic scraper. Do NOT use a metal

SECTION 3 – FIELD OPERATION

PREPARING THE FRONT POWER LIFT


(if fitted)
The front power lift comes with double acting pneumatic cylinder. It is actuated by using an electric remote valve
(green).
The lower links are fitted with quick-release couplings of category II and have no lateral clearance. There are three
setting options for the lower links:
A) FIXED POSITION
B) CLEARANCE POSITION (110 mm vertical clearance)
C) RETRACTION/TRANSPORT POSITION (retractable if the front power lift is not needed)

Fixed/Clearance position
If the connecting pins are positioned in the hole (1),
then the lower links are always connected to the
power lift’s rockers. The vertical clearance of the
lower links is blocked.
If the fixing bolt is inserted into the hole (2), the
lower links will have vertical freedom of movement 1
(110 mm).

SC04A202

Retraction/Transport position
If the front power lift is not needed, the lower links
can be folded up. When the lower links have been
folded up, the connecting pins (4) should be stored
away in the hole (3).

NOTE: No implements should be mounted on the
front power lift, if the lower links are in retracted
position.

Removing the lower links 4


If the front power lift is not needed for an extended
period of time, the lower links can be detached by SC04A203

removing the connecting pins (4) and the bearing


bolts (5). The links should be kept in transport
position when the front power lift is not in use and
when it is being driven on public roads.

REMOTE VALVES
Hydraulic system: Closed Centre (CC)
Closed system and closed circuit with Load Sensing
remote valves, with pump volumetric capacity of
105/130 l/min and predefined remote valve blocks.
Lifting/Pressure equipment for the power lift are
optional.

! ATTENTION !
Pressurised hydraulic oil or fuel, if discharged, can
penetrate the skin and cause serious injury. Hydraulic oil
can also lead to the infection of small cuts on the skin or
minor wounds. In the case of injury as a result of spilt
hydraulic oil, medical help is to be sought immediately.
If medical treatment is not sought immediately, serious
infections and reactions can result. Before the system is
pressurised, ensure that all connections are firmly
secured and that all hosing and wiring are in good
condition. Before wiring is unscrewed or other work is
carried out on the hydraulics system, pressure should be
released. Use a small piece of cardboard or wood in order
to detect any points of leakage under pressure. Never use
your hands to do this.

! ATTENTION !
Before uncoupling the hydraulics hoses, ensure that the
device is lowered to the ground and that the control valves
are switched to neutral/float position.

NOTE: Flow volume and time settings can


only be made when the engine is running and
when the driver seat switch is closed. The
direction of travel must be preselected before
activating the timer functions.

Oil removal for external


consumers
The permitted temporary volume of oil which can be
removed and available to external consumers is
dependent on the tractor’s working operations and
the oil level in the tank.
At normal oil levels the maximum oil to be removed
stands at 40 l when the tractor is on a level surface
and at a standstill.

SECTION 3 – FIELD OPERATION

Variations in equipment
Up to a maximum of 8 proportional remote valves can
be fitted to the tractor, if each control unit is equipped
with floating position and are continuously flux
controlled.
6 control valves can be set to between 0 - 30 seconds
and are infinitely adjustable. All remote valves are
dual action and are fitted with a non-return valve at
connections A and B.
Individual controls for the remote valves are assigned
a colour code at control lever level and use coloured
push buttons on the AutoController.
The remote valves come in 11 predefined blocks and

DIFFERENTIAL LOCK/Terralock

! ATTENTION !
Do not drive on public roads or at all at high speeds with
the differential lock engaged. Steerability is adversely
affected by it and this can lead to accidents. In the field the
differential lock should only be used to improve traction. It
must be disengaged when turning at the end of the field.

Your tractor is fitted with a differential lock for both the


front and the rear axle. In this way both rear wheels
and both front wheels can turn at the same speed.
The differential lock prevents any drop in speed in the
event that the traction on both rear wheels and both
front wheels is unequal. This facility also acts as a
stable and precise steering aid when working out in
the field. The differential lock can be engaged
manually or automatically (management ON).
The differential lock is engaged when there is a drop
in traction on a wheel or simply when more traction is
wanted.

IMPORTANT: The front wheels must be in a


straightened position when engaging or
disengaging the differential lock. The
differential lock must be disengaged when
turning the tractor.

OPERATING FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE


Your tractor is fitted with an electrically/hydraulically
powered all-wheel drive clutch. All-wheel drive can be
engaged and disengaged under load without
actuating the clutch while vehicle is in motion.
Engaging the front axle drive supplies additional
traction and tractive power.

All-wheel drive with management


ENGAGING ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
To engage all-wheel drive press the all-wheel button
(1) to the ON position I.
To switch on the management function, hold down
the button (1) at the AUTO position (mid position).
The all-wheel drive telltale lights up on the
instrument panel only when all-wheel drive is
actually engaged.
DISENGAGING ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
To disengage all-wheel drive, press the all-wheel
1
button (1) to the OFF position (0). The telltale on the
instrument panel switches off. SC04A226

NOTE: When the vehicle is at a standstill, the all-


wheel drive remains applied if no travel direction is
preselected. The telltale will therefore also remain
on when the all-wheel drive switch is in position 0.

Operating in automatic mode (management):


All-wheel drive is disengaged whenever:
A. Travel speed is more than 14 km/h.
All-wheel drive is engaged whenever:
A. Travel speed is less than 14 km/h.
After the engine has been switched off,

FRONT WHEEL MUDGUARD - ALL-WHEEL TRACTOR


(if fitted)
For all-wheel drive tractors, front wheel mudguards
are available.
The mudguards are fitted to the steering knuckle
housings. To maintain the required clearance
between mudguards and other tractor components,
the mudguards must be positioned correctly for the
relevant track setting and tyre size. Adjustment is
continuously variable.
If mudguards are fitted, the steering stops will also
need to be adjusted ( See page 3 - 57).
STEP 1
To adjust a front mudguard to suit a new track width,
unfasten the hex screws (3).
Slide mudguard holder (3) into a new position and
tighten the screws back down again.
STEP 2 1

mudguard into its new position then tighten the
screw up again.

IMPORTANT: After adjusting the front wheel


toe, the position of front mudguards and SS06M186
steering stops should also be checked.
Raise front of tractor, turn steering wheel
from full lock in one direction to full lock in
the other direction to ensure that tyres do
not collide with any tractor component or

MAINTENANCE OF TRAILER HITCH


Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning:
As required, clean the coupling pin (1) using a
cleaning cloth to ensure it functions perfectly.
7
Clean the pin seat (2) in the wear bushing at 6
regular intervals because dirt in this bush can
prevent the coupling pin from locking properly.
8
Clean the locking pin (3) as necessary to assure 3
perfect locking action.
Greasing:
Fill grease nipple (4) until grease starts to emerge
1
round the edge (calcium-based, e.g. Fuchs 2 4 5
Renolit CX-EP1 / Shell Retinax H 2) and
distribute by rotating the coupling head
clockwise/anticlockwise (through at least 90°). SC98C034
SS99G066
IMPORTANT: The torque on the coupling
head must not exceed 200 Nm! (50 - 200 Nm
depending on version)
If the coupling is rusted up (e.g. due to fertiliser
spray), do not use rust solvent or you might cause
malfunctions to occur.
As required and every 1,000 operating hours, apply
a light coating of grease to the grease nipple (5) of
the mechanism.
If more seriously contaminated - dismantle the
cover (6).
As required, and every 1,000 operating hours,
apply a light coating of grease to the grease nipple
(8) on the coupling pin mechanism.
If the mechanism is affected by impaired
movement, remove the cover (7) every 1,000
operating hours, remove dirt and apply more
grease. If required, fill the cleaned automatic
housing with grease to 2/3 volume (especially pin
unit between the lugs)!
IMPORTANT: The driver must ensure, in
accordance with legislation, that all safety
mechanisms (locks) have been checked!
Ball-head coupling
Every 250 operating hours, use a torque wrench to
check that the securing screws on the ball-head
coupling are tightly secured.

STEP 1
With the engine switched off, remove the battery.
Refer to Page 5 - 3.

STEP 2
Check acid level (approx. 1 cm above the plates).
Only top up with distilled water!
The battery terminals must be clean and securely
seated. Remove corrosion with a wire brush. To
prevent further corrosion, apply a small amount of
Vaseline or terminal grease to the terminals.
Charge the battery with 12V DC (comply with
specifications of battery manufacturer).
IMPORTANT: At very high ambient
temperatures, hourly work rates and cyclical
loads, this maintenance task should be
performed twice a year.
IMPORTANT: Ensure battery is well charged if
there is a risk of sub-zero temperatures!
IMPORTANT: If distilled water is used to top
up the battery at ambient temperatures of less
than 0°C, the battery must be charged
straightaway to enable this water to mix with
the battery acid. Otherwise, the water would
freeze, because it would lie on the surface of
the battery acid.
IMPORTANT: The gas produced during the
charging process is highly flammable! Avoid
getting battery acid on skin or clothing!
