HEALTH AND
ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
41. Tractors are not furnished with
special filters of air that is sucked to the
cab. Therefore the tractors are not
intended for work with aerosols and
other substances harmful to health.
Kerosene, diesel fuel, mineral oils and
other products from crude oil used for
operation and maintenance of tractor
may cause an injury in case of direct
contact with skin and it can irritate
mucous membranes, eyes, digestive or
respiratory organs. Some of them can
cause poisoning when swallowed.
42. The operators who come in contact
with oil products are obliged to heed
strictly safety and hygienic
instructions, make use of appropriate
protecting means, and work in well-
ventilated areas.
CRUDE OIL PRODUCTS
HANDLING
43. On termination of work or prior to
start eating, wash yourself with a
non-irritant agent and treat your
hands with a suitable skin ointment
or cream.
44. When connecting and disconnecting
the quick couplings of hydraulic
circuit, remove with a piece of any
cloth the residual oil, which
remains in the coupling socket or
possibly on the plug.
WASTE DISPOSAL
45. When disposing of the tractor or
some of its parts (including the
service liquids), as soon as their
service life is over, everybody is
obliged to proceed in accordance
with the provisions of the relevant
acts and regulations being in force in
a country, in which the tractor is
operated. The last tractor seller is
obliged under the Waste Disposal
Act to inform the consumer when
selling the tractor on the ways of

disassemble, turn or otherwise
manipulate the screw joints of the air-
conditioning system, because
sudden leak of the coolant and quick
local cooling may occur. Contact or
freezing of components in your
hands may result in serious injury of
some tissues.
49. The air-conditioning system is
equipped with quick couplings, which
allow separation of the cab from the
tractor body if necessary, without any
leak of the coolant. Entrust the
interventions into the air conditioning
system to the service specialists.
 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR USERS
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

E124
HEATING OR AIR-CONDITIONING
OPERATION DURING TRACTOR
OPERATION
With the inner air recirculation switched-
on, the inlet of fresh air is closed and it
comes to breathing-up of the cab space
by operators. This state can cause feel-
ings of tiredness.
Note: When working, set the control (D)
according to your individual requirements
to temperature in a position between (a)
and (b) so that the fan could suck the air
from outside of the cab through filters.
31
E125
IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CAB
COOLING
Immediately after cooling the cab and
reduction of the inner temperature to de-
sired level we recommend:
Switch over the air circulation control
(D) from position (b - air recirculation)
to position (a - outer air suction).
Perform fluent regulation of air tem-
perature with switched-on air-
conditioning by means of half-opening
of the heating valve (A). During this
setting, air flowing into the cab from

BEFORE ENGINE STARTING
Before starting the engine be sure that:
1. tractor is braked properly
2. main gearshift lever is in neu-
tral position.
If the clutch pedal is not de-
pressed, the tractor cannot be
started - the start safety switch is
not actuated.
Note: Before starting proper we recom-
mend to prime the fuel system by several
strokes of hand fuel delivery pump.
TRACTOR OPERATION
E202
ENGINE STARTING
1. Insert the key into the ignition lock
("0" position).
2. Depress the clutch pedal.
3. Move the main gearshift lever into
neutral position.
4. Set throttle to increased fuel delivery
(approx. 1/2 of maximum delivery).
5. Turn the key from 0 position to "I"
position. The glow-plug indicator light
comes on.
6. Wait until the indicator light goes out
(the time depends on the coolant
temperature).
52
E203
In case that the indicator light
flashes only instead of lighting,
the glowing system failed (see
Chapter Signalling of glowing
system failures). Have the indi-
cated failure corrected at the
authorized service centre.
7. Immediately after the indicator light
has gone out (max. within 5 s), turn
the key from position "I" into position
"II" (start).
8. Release the key immediately after
starting the engine, it returns auto-
matically into I position. Do not op-
erate the starter for more than 15 s.
9. After starting the engine, gradually
reduce the fuel delivery.

E204
IF THE ENGINE DOES NOT START
Turn the key into position "0", wait 30
seconds and repeat the start.
Maximum 6 starting cycles are allowed
(15 seconds starting and 30 second
interruption make one cycle). Further
engine starting attempt is allowed after
cooling down of starter motor to the
ambient temperature.
Never help the stopping engine
by the starter motor. It may be
suffer damage this way.

SIGNALLING OF GLOWING SYSTEM
FAILURES
Flashing of the glowing indicator light
indicates failure in the glowing system.
- If the glowing indicator light is flashing
once in a second with the stopped en-
gine, glowing will take place in emer-
gency regime as at low temperature
regardless to coolant temperature.
- If the glowing indicator light is flashing
twice in a second with the stopped en-
gine, the glowing is put of operation.
- If the glowing indicator light is flashing
permanently with the engine running,
failure of the glowing regulator oc-
curred and glowing was not finished. It
is necessary to correct the failure im-
mediately, because there is danger of
battery discharging.

COOLANT HEATER STARTING THE ENGINE USING THE COOLANT HEATER

The coolant heater is installed on the
right-hand side of the engine block.
Output 1,000 W
Voltage 220 V
The heater allows starting the engine at low ambient temperature by preheating the
coolant. The electrical system and its protection against electrical shock hazard must
be done according to valid regulations.
1. Plug the heater first.
2. Plug the cable with connected heater to 220 V mains after.
With regard to reduction of engine wear when starting at low temperatures, the pro-
ducer recommends to use the heater. The preheating time depends upon the ambi-
ent temperature (1 to 2 hours before supposed starting are sufficient).
Having finished the heating, unplug the mains first and the heater only after!
Electrical shock hazard!
It is necessary to ensure instruction of tractor operators and regular
revisions of the coolant heater including the inlet cable in accordance
with valid standards of the country, in which the tractor is operated,

REVERSING SHIFT LEVER
Use the reversing shift lever to select the
tractor driving direction (forward or re-
verse).
F - forward drive (16 gears)
N - neutral
R - reverse run (16 gears)
The reversing gearbox has 16 reverse
gears, which are approximately so fast
as forward gears. Therefore consider it
well, which gear for the work you will
select.
Shift to the reversing gear with
the clutch pedal depressed at
tractor standstill.

AXLE ENGAGED
Use the front driving axle when rear
wheels are slipping to increase the
tractor traction force. On the road and
on hard ground the driving with the front driving
axle engaged is permissible within maximum
speed of 15 km/h (the driving with the front
driving axle engaged on the road and on hard
ground causes excessive wear of front tires).
Permanent engagement of front driving
axle is permitted if the agriculture ma-
chine or implement is attached to front of
the tractor. This condition is specified in

the fuel delivery into MIN position.
3. Pull up the controller of the engine
stopping device and turn it in the
pulled position. After the engine stops
push the controller back
4. After stopping the engine it is possible
to turn the ignition key from I posi-
tion into 0 position (with the engine
at standstill only - the charging warn-
ing light must come on).
65
E234
LEAVING THE TRACTOR
Be sure to remove the key from the igni-
tion lock in 0 position before leaving the
tractor safety cab (the key cannot be
removed when in I or II position).
The tractor must be secured
against spontaneous setting in
motion as follows:
1. shut the engine off
2. shift to 1st gear
3. set the parking brake
In addition, when the tractor stands on a
hill, be sure to underlay the wheels with
chocks.
Lock the cab.
Note: With the stopped engine the front
driving axle is automatically engaged.

HYDROSTATIC STEERING MAL-
FUNCTION WARNING LIGHT
When the oil pressure drops below 120
kPa behind the pump, it means a mal-
function of hydrostatic steering pump,
which is indicated by lighting of the cor-
responding symbol on the dashboard.
Note: The warning light can flash during
the engine start or at low engine speed;
if it goes out after starting the engine or
after engine speed increase, there is no
malfunction. The system is OK.

E236
IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION
In case that the oil pressure / charging /
hydrostatic steering malfunction warning
light comes on during the tractor opera-
tion, shut the engine off immediately and
have the malfunction located and cor-
rected at the authorized service centre.
In such a manner you prevent a serious

CONTROL OF SELECTIVE CONTROL VALVE
Each control lever of sections has four positions.
Lever position Function
1 Rear (upper) position Pressure oil flows to quick couplings: "4", "6"
Quick couplings connected with return line: 3, 5
2 Middle position Neutral
3 Front (lower) position Pressure oil flows to quick couplings: "3", "5"
Quick couplings connected with return line: 4, 6
4 Front margin position By increased force, it is possible to move the control
lever from position (3) forward to position (4), so
called floating (free) position, in which both levers are
locked. Both quick couplings of each section are
connected with return line in this position.
Note: The lever returns automatically from positions (1) and (3) into neutral.
Remember to connect the single-acting cylinder always to quick couplings
4, 6!

CONNECTION OF MACHINES AND IMPLEMENTS TO HYDRAULIC OUTER
CIRCUIT
Connection of machines and implements being composed of more parts
Tractor without selective control valve
When working with agricultural machines which consist of more parts (combinators,
skids, and harrows), to which side frames, folded during transport to vertical position
by independent hydraulic cylinders, controlled by outer hydraulic circuit, are hinged to
the central frame, it is necessary to control folding of outer frames always by moving
the control lever of outer circuit to the rear position. Moving the control lever of outer
circuit in this direction ensures that pressure oil in quick coupling "1" causes lifting of
frames to vertical (transport) position. Quick coupling "2" is connected with return
line.
Tractor equipped with selective control valve
When working with agricultural machines which consist of more parts (combinators,
skids, and harrows), to which side frames, folded during transport to vertical position
by independent hydraulic cylinders, controlled by outer hydraulic circuit, are hinged to
the central frame, it is necessary to control folding of outer frames always by moving
the control lever of the selective control valve upwards (rearwards). At the same time
the lifting branches of cylinders must be connected with quick couplings "4 or "6.
Connection of rotary hydraulic motor
If a rotary hydraulic motor is connected to the hydraulic outer circuit, the return line
must be always connected to the quick coupling "0".
Connection of reversible hydraulic motor
For functional reason, a reversible rotary hydraulic motor must be connected to quick
couplings "1" and "2", possibly always to quick couplings of one section of the
selective control valve. However, in this case both lines must be equipped with relief
valves which will reliably limit the pressure peaks during the machine run-out. The oil
return lines from these valves should be connected to the quick coupling "0".

UPPER TIE-ROD
The upper tie-rod (1) is length adjust-
able. This is attached to the tractor into
one of four openings of the bracket that
transmits the force from the attached
implement to the torque bar located in
cover of the hydraulic control mecha-
nism.
During transportation of the im-
plement it is necessary to dis-
place the upper tie-rod into open-
ing d to avoid the overloading of
kinematics of the lifting hydraulic
system or downfall of the at-
tached implement.
UPPER TIE-ROD
Pay attention to keep the same
length of joints being screwed out
from the rod tube when elongat-
ing the upper tie-rod.
SELECTION OF OPENINGS IN THE
BRACKET
Attachment of the upper tie-rod into one
of openings "a" though "d" of the bracket
influences the following:
- sensitivity of hydraulic response (con-
trol position selection lever in position
"D" or "M"). The biggest response sen-
sitivity is with the tie-rod being at-
tached to the opening "a".

FRONT THREE-POINT HITCH
The three-point hitch has been designed
to attach the frontal carried agricultural
machines and implements of category II
according to ISO standard.
During transportation of the car-
ried implement the front three-
point hitch must be always locked
hydraulically in the lifted position
by means of ball valves located
on the LH side of the tractor

E604
ACCUMULATOR BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Keep the accumulator battery clean and properly fixed to the vehicle. The fixing
device must not deform the battery case. On polypropylene batteries, the electrolyte
level must not drop below the minimum mark, which is marked on the battery case.
Add distilled water only!
1. Before handling the accumulator, first read the manual!
2. Protect your eyes with glasses or safety shield!
3. The battery electrolyte is caustic agent and for that reason handle it with
extreme care! Rinse the skin if stained and neutralize it with soap and
water, and handle the stained clothing in the same way.
4. Hydrogen is released from electrolyte on electrodes during battery
charging and creates explosive mixture when mixed with air. Therefore it
is forbidden to handle the open fire close to the accumulator during
charging!
5. An explosion might also be caused by a spark created at disconnecting or
releasing of terminal with the charging circuit switched-on!
6. Keep out of reach of children!
7. Discarded battery is ecologically dangerous waste when buying a new
accumulator, let the old one at the sellers for charge-free liquidation.
135

CHARGING AND MAINTENANCE OF
ACCUMULATOR
A) Charging on vehicle and outside
the vehicle
1. Systematic overcharging and
discharging is harmful to battery and
shortens its service life. Correctly
adjusted charging system maintains
the battery near to a fully charged
condition. With adjusted voltage level
(13.8 - 14.4 V) in the charging system
and average tractor operation it is
sufficient to check and add the level
of electrolyte by distilled water once
per six month.
2. In heavier operation and another
level of regulated voltage it is
necessary to check the level of
electrolyte more frequently.
Overcharging the battery on vehicle
(more than 14.4 V) causes a high
loss of electrolyte.
3. It is necessary to charge the battery
removed from the vehicle or in the
vehicle, which is not in operation (see
Storage of charged batteries with
electrolyte). It is also suitable to
charge the battery in vehicle before
and after the winter season. In winter
season at strong frost the electrolyte
might freeze at almost discharged
battery (density of electrolyte 1.12 -
3
1.15 g/cm ); in this case the life is
substantially reduced (disintegration
of active agent and destroy of battery
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
case). Heavily discharged battery
(density of electrolyte below 1.07
g/cm3) might freeze already at
several degrees below zero.
4. Charge the battery by current that is
0,1 of total battery capacity (or lower)
up to a full charged condition.
5. The charging device with constant
voltage of 14.4 V can be also used.
The charging time can be max. 30
hours according to a level of
discharging.
6. Fully discharged battery must be
charged as soon as possible;
otherwise its full capacity cannot be
restored.
B) Signs of the charged battery
1. Battery is considered to be charged
fully if all battery cells generate gas
with the same intensity, the elec-
3
trolyte density is 1.28 g/cm in all
cells and the total battery voltage is
15.3 - 16.5 V, measured with
prescribed charging current.
2. Status of full charging is confirmed
when the achieved density of elec-
trolyte and level of voltage do not
change any more during two further
measurements following after two
hours.
3. For example the charging condition
for your orientation: charging con-
dition corresponds to density of
electrolyte. The charging condition is
characterized by electrolyte density
136
and is measured by the charge
indicator. Every cell needs to be
measured.
Charging condition = electrolyte
density
Charging condition Electrolyte
density
100 % 1.28 g/cm33
70 % 1.23 g/cm3
50 % 1.20 g/cm3
20 % 1.15 g/cm
0% 1.12 g/cm3
C) Storage of charged battery with
electrolyte
1. Before storage the battery must be
charged up to final signs of charging.
It must be disconnected from char-
ging system, cleaned and with plugs.
2. Battery that is built into a poly-
propylene case must be charged
after three month of storage because
of smaller self-discharging.
3. Intervals for checking the condition of
electrolyte: during charging or
minimum once per 6 month, add the
distilled water only! If some electrical
appliances are connected perma-
nently even with the ignition off (e.g.
emergency flasher) it is necessary to
check the state of charging i.e.
voltage without load and electrolyte
density min. once per 1 month.

E605
ALTERNATOR
The alternator is accessible after removal
of the right-hand side shield. The red
warning light on the combined instrument
panel indicates the charging state.
A burnt indicator lamp 12V / 2W
must be immediately replaced.
The indicator lamp is a part of
alternator exciting circuit; when
the indicator lamp is burnt, the
battery is not charged!
All wires connected with
alternator must be disconnected
when repairing tractor by electric
arc welding. Protect the wire
"+B" against short circuit
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
E606
ALTERNATOR MAINTENANCE
Protect the alternator against penetration of water or diesel fuel when
washing and cleaning the tractor!
The accumulator must be never disconnected from alternator in operation!
The alternator must never run without load i.e. with disconnected cable from
terminal "+B" and connected terminal "+D". With increased engine speed, this
state would create excessively high alternator voltage, which could damage
the alternator semiconductors!
Never create short circuit of any alternator connector in operation!!
The alternator must not be additionally excited. Alternator semiconductors will
be damaged in this case!
Keep electrical connections of alternator terminals and alternator ground in a
perfect condition!
Reversing of alternator polarity, even for a short time, is not allowed!

 TRACTOR MAINTENANCE
CHECK OF TURBOCHARGER FOR LEAKS AND BEARING
CLEARANCES
In case that oil leaks from the bearing case round the shaft and
in case that the allowed radial and axial bearing clearances
have been exceeded, have the turbocharger repair performed
by an authorized workshop.
Replace the hoses at inlet and outlet turbocharger manifolds
during reinstallation of the turbocharger to the engine. Ensure
proper tightness of both connections. During turbocharger in-
stallation to engine, remember to fill the turbocharger with 0.2
litres of engine oil through the turbocharger oil filler hole.
The inner preservation of turbocharger must be re-
stored if the tractor has been out of operation for a long
time!
This will be restored even after short engine running. Thats
why we recommend starting of the turbocharged engine at
least once in three month and running it for several minutes at
tractor, which is put out of operation. Hereby, the inner preser-
vation is restored.
LUBRICATION OF HYDRAULIC BRAKES COMPONENTS
clutch, brake cylinders and clutch release cylinder. Coat the
sliding surfaces of sealing rings in direction towards the outer
dust caps with special vaseline for hydraulic brakes (for exam-
ple Pentosin special). At the same time check rubber parts of
brakes. Replace the damaged rubber parts. Replace all rubber
parts after five years from the date of the tractor manufacture at
the latest.
GENERAL OVERHAUL
General overhaul of the tractor must be done in case that its
further operation is not economical, if many parts need repair
161
and the general technical state of tractor jeopardizes its safe
operation.
The average service life of engine and transmission is 8,000
hours provided that all regulations for maintenance are kept
according to the technical documentation of the manufacturer
when the tractor is used in mild climatic conditions and in plain
terrain.
This number of operating hours is valid, provided that the trac-
tor working conditions are distributed as follows:
- ploughing and preparation of soil for sowing 15 - 25 %
- sowing and planting 10 - 15 %
- harvesting 10 - 20 %
- agricultural transport 40 - 65 %
If the tractor works in mountain and sub-mountain areas, the
service life of engine and transmission is reduced by 15 - 20 %.
If the tractor works in worse climatic conditions, the life of en-
gine and transmission is reduced by 15 - 20 %.
Note: The front driving axle is also included in transmissions.
TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE OF TRACTORS AFTER
GENERAL OVERHAUL OF MAIN ASSEMBLY UNITS
Run-in the tractor after general overhaul according to rules for
running-in of a new tractor. Perform the maintenance in the
same manner as at a new tractor.

A driver or tractor user can do almost
any work of the planned technical
maintenance himself. But if you do not
have sufficient technical equipment,
have the more complicated work done at
an authorized service workshop.
All works in connection with
cleaning, lubrication and
adjustment of tractor or
implemented machine - except
for checks of brakes, charging
and hydraulic systems - can be
done only after stopping the
engine and other moving parts.

TIRE INFLATION
Basic values of recommended inflation pressures are mentioned in the Chapter Main
technical parameters. Regularly check the inflation pressure before the tractor
operation, when the tires are cold. The tractor air pressure regulator (B) can be used
for the tire inflation. The regulator serves as a pressure compensator, filling device for
tires and safety valve. Remove the wing nut from regulator (or remove the rubber
plug) when inflating the tire and mount a hose for the tire inflation instead. Screw in
the hose up to the end of thread so that the non-return valve could be depressed. In
case that the maximum pressure of 0.6 MPa (or 0.7 MPa in double-hose brakes) is
achieved in the air tank, the tire cannot be inflated. In this case it is necessary to
reduce the pressure by valve for draining the condensed water, located at the bottom
of the air tank (A). Remember to remount the wing nut (or rubber plug) to the air
pressure regulator after the tire inflation.

above the bleeder screw. The bleeder screw must be permanently under pressure
to avoid aerating of the brake system through the screw threads.
4. Loosen the bleeder screw maximum by 1/4 turn.
5. Fully depress the latched brake pedals and tighten the adjusting screws.
6. Release the brake pedals and repeat the procedure, until air bubbles cease es-
caping from the hose.

ADJUSTMENT
CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT OF
SERVICE AND PARKING BRAKES
Adjustment must be done in the following
order:
1. service brake adjustment
2. parking brake adjustment
Another way is not possible. Also only
separate adjustment of either service or
parking brake is not possible. Adjusting
operations depend on one another.
SERVICE BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
Secure the tractor against move-
ment!

1. Lift the tractor rear wheels.

2. Loosen the nuts (2), nuts (6) and nuts
(8).
3. Loosen the screw (7).
4. Let your assistant rotate one wheel
and simultaneously tighten the screw
(7) until the wheel starts to be braked.
5. Loosen the screw (7) by 5/6 turn,
check if the wheel can rotate freely
and secure the screw (7) with the nut
(6).
The adjusting procedure is the same
both for the right-hand and left-hand
tractor side.

If asymmetry of the brake effect appears
between the left and right brakes, it is
necessary to loosen the adjusting screw
(7) of the brake with higher brake effect,
until the brake effects of the right and left
wheels are equal, however, the loosen-
ing of the screw by 1/2 turn as a maxi-
mum is allowable. If asymmetry of the
brake effect is not eliminated even after
such adjustment, the tractor brakes must
be adjusted at an authorized service
centre.
PARKING BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
1. Set the lever (4) so that the distance
between the bracket (K) and fork face
on lever (4) is 109 mm (so that the
lever (4) forms an angle of 20 with
the vertical plane).
2. Screw the nut (2) to the contact sur-
face of the pin (3) without any play
and any pre-stress it must not come
to depressing of the arms (5).
3. The adjusting procedure is the same
on the right-hand and left-hand tractor
side.
4. Use the nuts (8) to adjust the Bowden
cable of the parking brake lever so
that when an angle of 20 is kept on
the lever (4), the parking brake lever
has no clearance.
5. Lift and lower the parking brake lever
(1) several times. This way you will

If asymmetry of the brake effect of the
parking brake appears between the left
and right brakes, it is necessary to
loosen the upper adjusting nut (2) of the
brake with higher brake effect until the
brake effects of the right and left wheels
are equal, however, the loosening of the
nut (2) by 1.5 turn as a maximum is
allowable. If asymmetry of brake effect is
not eliminated after such adjustment, the
tractor brakes must be adjusted at an
authorized service centre.
Note: To make the brake adjustment E764
easier, there are adjusting holes in the

the mutual position between the piston
rod and piston rod eye (1) so that the
piston rod is maximally pulled out of the
cylinder and simultaneously the clear-
ance between the pedal and the upper
stop screw (2) is 0.1 - 0.2 mm. Subse-
quently the piston rod is fixed with the
nut (3) towards the piston rod eye.
Check eventual deformation of the dust

BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC CLUTCH
CIRCUIT
Bleed the clutch hydraulic circuit in the
same way as the rear brake system. The
bleeder screw of the clutch release hy-
draulic circuit is located on the clutch
release control cylinder (1).
Add only fresh brake fluid into the
brake fluid equalizing tank, which
is common both for the brake and
clutch circuits.
After each two years of operation it is
necessary to change the brake fluid in
the entire brake circuit including the
clutch release hydraulic circuit.

the upper transporting position,
when the position control P is se-
lected.
2. Screw the telescopic tie-rod nuts to
the guide tube without any clearance.
3. Then tighten the nuts by 3.5 turns.
4. Check if it is possible to lift off the
carrier hooks freely.
5. Lower and lift the hydraulic arms to
the transport position repeatedly to
make sure that the engine is not get-
ting stopped at idle run the safety
valve of hydraulic pump must not be

ADJUSTMENT OF THE RELEASING
BOWDEN CABLE
The hitch is in the working position. The
Bowden cable must be under such ten-
sion so that the control lever in the cab
has no clearance. If the Bowden cable is
not tensioned sufficiently, adjust it by
means of the adjusting screw (1) by
screwing on or off. Lock the adjusting
screw with the lock nut (2) after finishing
of adjustment.
