TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS

Tractor

To operate this machine the following tractor requirements are necessary:

- Tractor power: Novacat S10 - from 103KW / 140PS,

Novacat S12 - from 118KW / 160PS,

- Hitching: Lower link Cat. III / Weite 3

- Connections: see table “Necessary hydraulic and power connections”

Ballast weights

The front of the tractor is to have sufficient ballast to

guarantee braking and steering capabilities.

At least 20% of the tractor’s tare weight on

the front axle!

Lifting gear (three-point linkage)

- The tractor’s lifting unit (three-point linkage) must be

designed for the load that occurs. (See technical data)

- The lifting struts are to be set at the same length (4)

using the relevant adjusting equipment

(See the tractor manufacturer’s operating manual)

- Select the rear position if the lifting rods can be adjusted

in various positions on the lower link. This relieves the

pressure on the tractor’s hydraulic system.

- The limiting chain or lower link stabilisers (5) are to

be set so that the coupled implement CANNOT move

sideways. (Safety measure for transportation)

Hydraulic control on the lifting gear

The lifting hydraulic system is to be switched to

position control:
