                                    4. Connecting and Disconnecting




            The  SupaTill  should  always  be  parked  on  a  flat  area.  The  following  procedures  relate  to  hook-up  and
            unhooking the machine:
                1.  Clear bystanders away from the rear area of the tractor and SupaTill when connecting tractor and
                    SupaTill.
                2.  Keep RPM of tractor low to avoid tractor “jumping” movement

                3.  SLOWLY reverse tractor up to the hitch point.
                                       : Tractor MUST be equipped with a clevis hitch to prevent unit from tipping
                                       upward while folding/unfolding operations are conducted. A safety chain must
                                       also always be properly installed.
                4.  Install a drawbar pin with provisions for a mechanical retainer such as a KLIK pin and install the
                    retainer.

                5.  Install a safety chain between the tractor and the hitch.
                6.  Ensure safety clips are locked in position.
                7.  Raise jack stand.
                8.  Set  the  tractor  hydraulic  system  to  FLOAT  and  connect  hydraulic  hoses  ensuring  the  supply  and
                    return hoses are properly matched to their respective connectors.
                9.  Engage hydraulic flow controller on tractor, extend and retract wings a short distance several times
                    to prime the hydraulic system.
                10. Fully extend wings before lowering disc frame.
                11. Slowly lower disc frame to the ground pausing as weight shifts past the centreline.


                12. Always lower and raise frame with wings fully extended first. Never raise of lower frame with wings
                    retracted.
                13. When  SupaTill  is  in  the  transport  position  (wings  retracted  and  in  stored  position)  ensure  that
                    hydraulics are in the FLOAT position




                                       5. Transport on Public Roads



            All applicable government, state, regional and local laws and regulations should be understood and observed

            when  towing  the  SupaTill  on  public  roadways.  Ensure  all  front  of  tractor  weights  and  wheel  weights  are
            checked to attain correct balance of tractor and SupaTill before entering public roadways.

            Before departing to the field (or any destination) ensure the SupaTill is in the stored into transport position
            (frame raised and wings retracted to the stored position) and that all safety signs are visible and safety lights
            are working properly.
