HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT
- It is extremely important to adjust the headlights correctly according to the regulations in force for road transport.
- Inquire about local regulations in this respect. If necessary, adjust the light beam using the headlight fastening screw (1).
- Replace burnt bulbs with new ones of the same size (45 W).
GRAIN TANK FULL LIGHT AND SENSOR
- To improve visibility inside the grain tank, particularly at night, the combine is fitted as standard with a light (1) above the front window of the tank.
- The control switch is located on the instrument control panel.
- The direction of the light beam can be adjusted manually.
- The combine can be fitted with a tank full sensor as an option.
- The sensor (2) is activated by the force on its external diaphragm when the crop in the tank approaches the maximum level.
- When the circuit is closed, an indicator light and a buzzer are activated in the cab.
- At the same time, the front rotating yellow beacons (3) and the rear rotating yellow beacons come on.
- This allows the combined operator and the driver of the vehicle to which the crop is to be transferred to prepare for unloading in advance.
- IMPORTANT: The grain tank full sensor (2) can be adjusted in height depending on humidity and crop type.
UNLOADING AREA LIGHT (if present)
Fig. 78
- To improve visibility during unloading operations, the operator can switch on the light (1).
- The control switch is located on the rear control panel.
- The direction of the light beam can be adjusted manually.
REVERSING AREA LIGHT (if present)
-
To improve visibility when reversing, the operator can switch on the light (1).
CAUTION : Switch the light off when driving the machine on public roads. -
The control switch is located on the rear control panel.
-
The direction of the light beam can be adjusted manually.
BATTERY
- The combine is equipped with a 12 V battery (150 Ah).
- The ground cable is connected to the battery negative pole (-).
- Check the electrolyte level once a week (every 75 working hours) and, if required, refill with distilled water until covering the partitions.
- The battery can be completely disconnected by the main switch (1) or by removing the negative terminal from the battery.
Important Notes
-
At low temperatures, add water immediately before starting the engine. In this way, the charging current allows water and electrolytes to mix preventing freezing of the battery.
-
DANGER: Avoid sparks or naked flames near the battery, the battery gas could explode.
-
Never check the battery charge by placing a metal object between the terminals. Use a voltmeter or a densimeter.
-
If the engine is difficult to start, do not keep the ignition key in the starting position for more than 20 seconds, rather try again after a few seconds.
-
Battery terminals must be regularly cleaned and coated by a film of acid-proof grease or industrial vaseline to prevent corrosion.
-
Make sure the filling plug bleed holes are not restricted.
-
The battery must not be disconnected while the engine is running, as this could cause severe damage to the alternator.
To ensure long life of the battery, switch off all lights before starting the engine. -
Under normal conditions, never add sulphuric acid to the battery.
-
Batteries should be stored only when charged.
DANGER : Never charge a frozen battery. It could explode. For battery maintenance, strictly observe the safety precautions described on pages 1-18.
Indicator Light for Battery Charging
- When the ignition key is turned to position 1 (instruments supplied), the battery charging indicator (2) on the multiple light indicators switches on.
- The indicator switches off when the engine is started.
- If the warning light stays on, the alternator is not functioning properly.
- If the failure cannot be found quickly, contact your local Dealer.
- If, after turning the ignition key to position 2 the indicator light for low battery charge (1) does not switch on, find the cause (bulb, cable, fuse, etc.) and solve the problem.
Battery Replacement
ATTENTION : The battery positive cable (+) is always live.
- Lift the guard (1).
- Turn the lever (2) to the vertical position.
- Lift the guard (3).
- Always disconnect the ground cable (-) first, then the positive cable (+).
- Remove the stop plate (4).
DANGER: Risk of squeezing, cutting or shocks.
Two people are required to handle the battery.
For reassembly, proceed in reverse order.
Suggestions
- When using an external battery, always connect it in parallel, i.e. negative pole (-) to negativepole (-) and positive pole (+) to positive pole (+).
- Before connecting a battery charger, always remove the cables. Remove the battery plugs so that hydrogen released during charging can escape. Make sure the battery charger is connected correctly.
- Never start the engine when the cables between alternator and battery are disconnected.
