and health protection).

• Do not allow children under 16 to use the tractor.

• When using the public highway, respect the highway

code.

• Do not allow anyone to stand around where they might

get hurt.

• Do not run the engine in enclosed spaces.

• Exercise extreme caution when handling fuels - there

is a high risk of fire.

• Exercise extreme caution when handling fuels and

oils; these can be poisonous and caustic.

• To prevent the danger of fire, keep the tractor and

implements clean.

• Observe the warning notices and symbols on your

tractor.

Working Clothes

• Only wear snugly fitting clothing when working with

the tractor.

• If necessary, wear suitable headwear to keep loose

hairs and pigtails from being caught in rotating parts.

• Do not wear any jewellery and similar objects, eg

rings, when working with the tractor.

Safety Notes for Later Installations

The tractor has electronic components whose proper

functioning can be influenced by the electromagnetic

emissions of other equipment. These influences can

endanger persons if the following notes on safety are not

observed.

• Have your equipment installed only by an authorized

workshop.

• Before the installation of electric or electronic equip-

ment connected to the tractor's electrical system,

check if these installations can interfere with the

tractor's electronic system or other system compon-

ents.

C 9700 ... C 9.88 H

Operating Instructions

12 145 052

Instructions for Operation

• The installed equipment must conform to the applica-

ble EMC directive 89/336/EU and carry the CE

symbol.

• If you must install a mobile communications system

(or have it installed) (eg radio, mobile telephone), the

following requirements must be met:

- Only approved equipment (eg BTZ approval in Germa-

ny) may be installed.

- The equipment must be installed permanently.

- The operation of portable or mobile equipment inside

the vehicle is only allowed if connected to a perma-

nently installed external antenna.

- The transmitting section must be installed away from

the tractor's electronic system.

- When installing the antenna, install it properly and

with a good connection vehicle ground.

- Do not exceed the maximum permissible current

rating of the wiring according to the installation in-

structions of the equipment manufacturer.

Safety Instructions for Handling Fuels and

Oils

Gear Oil, Engine Oil, Diesel Fuel

Do not eat, drink or smoke when working with

the product. Prolonged intensive contact may

cause degreasing and irritation of the skin.

Wash skin with soap and water, use skin care

products. If required, wear protective gear.

Change soaked clothes and shoes immedi-

ately. If vapour or mist was inhaled, breathe

fresh air. Consult a doctor if the complaint

persists. After contact with the eyes, rinse

the eyes thoroughly with water (at least 10

minutes), then consult an eye doctor. If swal-

lowed, do not force to vomit, but consult a

doctor. Danger of slipping on the spilled prod-

uct, especially in connection with water.

Oils can contaminate water. Always keep

them in approved containers. Avoid spilling

oils. Remove spilled fluids at once with an oil

binding agent and dispose of in accordance

with laws and regulations. Discard drained

fluids as specified. Observe all applicable laws

and regulations. Oils are inflammable. Do not

145 052 13

C 9700 ... C 9.88 H Instructions for Operation

Operating Instructions

let them come in contact with hot engine parts

as fire can result.

Hydraulic Oil, Brake Fluid

During tractor operation, these fluids are under

pressure and a health hazard. Do not spill these

fluids! Remove any spilled fluid at once with an

oil binding agent and discard as specified. Dis-

pose of old fluids as specified and follow the

applicable laws and regulations. Do not allow

them to come in contact with hot engine parts

as fire can result. Danger of fire!

Avoid contact with the skin. Avoid the inhalation

of spray fog. The penetration of the fluids into

the skin is especially dangerous if the fluids

are under high pressure and escape from the

hydraulic system through leaks. Seek medical

aid at once in case of such injuries.

If injuries cannot be excluded, use suitable

protectors (for example, protective gloves,

glasses and skin protection and care creams).

Battery Acid

Battery acid contains dissolved sulphuric

acid. This acid is poisonous and caustic. When

working with battery acid, always wear

protective clothing and eye protectors. Do not

allow acid to contact clothing, skin or eyes.

In case of contact, wash directly with ample

clean water. If personal injuries exist, seek

medical aid at once. Neutralize spilled battery

acid immediately.

Discard the old battery fluid as specified.

Observe laws and regulations.

Emissions

Exhaust Gases

During operation, the engine emits exhaust

gases into the environment. The exhaust gas

mainly consists of water vapour, carbon

dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO),

hydrocarbon (CH), nitrogen oxide (NOX) and

soot. The components CO, CH and NOX are

poisonous or hazardous to health and should

not be inhaled in high concentrations. Soot is

a carcinogenic material; particularly the

C 9700 ... C 9.88 H

Operating Instructions

14 145 052

Instructions for Operation

particles in the exhaust gases can cause

cancer. For this reason the engine may not

be operated in enclosed spaces.

Heat

The exhaust gases are very hot and can ignite

inflammable material. The exhaust gas pipe

should therefore be kept away from ignitable

material.

Battery

During charging, the battery produces a mix-

ture of oxygen and hydrocarbon (detonating

gas). This mixture of gases is explosive and

may not be ignited. The risk of explosion can

be avoided with proper ventilation and keep-

ing naked flames away. Observe the safety

rules when handling the battery.

Taking into Service

Daily Checks and Activities before Taking

into Service

If damages or defects are found during the following checks,

they must be eliminated before taking the vehicle into

service. Do not operate the tractor before proper repairs are

carried out. Safety and protective devices should not be

removed or disabled. Fixed specified settings may not be

changed.

Before starting work, make yourself familiar with all the

functions and protective devices of the tractor.

Checking and Cleaning the Cooler and Radiator

Screen Guards

NOTE

- Check if the mud guards (2, 3, 4, 5 and 6)

are clean.

- Clean the mud guards if necessary. The

guard (6) can be pulled out laterally to the

left after releasing the bayonet screw (7)

and then cleaned easily.

- The air intake of the air filter (1) must be

clean.

NOTE

The battery can be switched off completely

with the removable key.

- Insert the key (1) in the battery isolating switch and

set it to the vertical position.

The battery circuit is turned on.

Checking Engine Oil Level

NOTE

Check the engine oil level only when the

tractor is on level ground.

- Let the engine run approx. 2 minutes with the heat

shut-off valve open.

- Stop the engine and pull the oil dipstick (1) out after

approx. 1 minute .

- The oil level should be between the Min (2) and Max

marking (3).

- If necessary, fill oil according to the maintenance

manual.

ATTENTION

Do not fill too much oil.

Operating Instructions

145 052 51

C 9700 ... C 9.88 H Taking into Service

Checking the Trailer Hitch (Optional), if required

- Check the trailer hitch for proper condition and wor-

king. Carry out the check according to the instructions

in the section "Operating the Trailer Hitch".

Checking Tire Inflation Pressure

NOTE

Your tractor can be equipped with different

types of tires. The specified inflation pressure

for your tires is given in the table entitled

"Tires" in the technical data section.

- Check the inflation pressure of all four tires. All tires must

have the same pressure. If the pressure is too low, the

rolling resistance increases. This causes an increase in

fuel consumption and tire wear, the driving characteristics

become poorer.

DANGER

If the inflation pressure is too high, the tires

can explode.

- The tires should not be damaged or worn.

- Have damaged tires replaced without delay. Due to the

longer braking distance the risk of an accident is in-

creased.

Before Starting to Drive

When driving on public highways, observe the regulations

of the highway code.

• When following a curve with a trailer or other attach-

ments, don't forget to take the added length and drag into

consideration.

DANGER

Parts of implements posing a danger to traffic

must be covered before driving or identified

with warning signs.

• Switch off the differential lock when travelling along a

curve.

• When driving on slopes, drive downhill if possible; if

you have to turn, turn only when driving uphill.

• On steep slopes you can improve traction by acti-

vating the differential lock.

• Drive across slopes only in accordance with the notes

at the end of this chapter.

Driving Safety Rules

• Drive the tractor only from the driver's station with the

cab doors closed.

• Always adjust your speed to the driving conditions

and the load you are carrying.

• Never drive downhill without having the tractor in gear

or with the engine stopped.

• Before driving, check that no-one is standing in the

immediate vicinity of the vehicle.

• The driving behaviour of the tractor is strongly affec-

ted by the weight and swing range of the implements,

trailers and, if fitted, ballasting. Therefore drive slowly

with heavy equipment and take the longer braking

distance into consideration.

Coupling Hydraulic Lines

ATTENTION

The hydraulic couplings on the tractor must

be without hydraulic pressure before the

connection. The couplings on the tractor and

the hydraulic hoses must be clean.

NOTE

Each implement has different functions and

hydraulic lines for its control. Observe the op-

erating manual supplied with your implement

and make yourself familiar with the functions

and colour codes.

- Open the protective caps of the hydraulic couplings

(6).

- Attach the colour coded hydraulic hoses (9) of the

implement to the hydraulic couplings of the same

colour on the tractor.

ATTENTION

The hydraulic male couplings fit on each

coupling and can therefore be connected

incorrectly.

With the connection you therefore decide

which function/movement of the implement

is actually to be performed with the control

lever assigned to the coupling.

DANGER

If you are not sure about the functions,

determine them with trials at a safe place.

Handling fuels and lubricants

• Fuels and lubricants must always be handled properly

and as specified by the manufacturer.

• Fuels and lubricants may only be stored in approved

containers at specified places of storage. They can be

inflammable, therefore do not allow them to come in

contact with hot objects or with naked flames.

• Exercise caution when handling fuels - increased dan-

ger of fire. Do not fill any fuels in the vicinity of naked

flames, ignition sparks or hot engine parts. No smoking

when refuelling!

• Before refuelling, shut off the engine and remove the

ignition key. Do not run the engine in enclosed spaces.

Do not spill fuels! (use suitable filling aids).

• Exercise caution when handling brake fluid and battery

acid (poisonous and corrosive).

• Only use clean vessels when filling fuels and lubricants.

• When using fuels, lubricants and cleaners, follow the

safety and disposal instructions of the manufacturer.

• Always avoid spilling. Eliminate spilled brake fluid

immediately with a suitable binding agent and discard

as specified by regulations.

• Oils, fuels, batteries, brake fluid and filters must be

disposed of separately and as specified by regulations.

• Before beginning lubrication, changing filter or opening

the hydraulic system, clean the area surrounding the

affected part carefully.

• Replaced parts must be discarded in a way friendly to

the environment.

• Observe all local and national laws and regulations.

CAUTION

The penetration of hydraulic oil under pressure

into the skin, eg through leaks, is dangerous.

If such injuries occur, seek medical aid.

Safety Notes for Maintenance

Observe the instructions in this maintenance manual and

the general applicable safety and accident prevention rules!

• Do not allow anyone to stand around where they might

Laying Up

If the tractor is not going to be in service for over 2 months,

for example for operational reasons, it must be placed in a

well-ventilated, clean and dry room and the following

measures must be carried out.

- Clean the tractor thoroughly.

- Check the hydraulic oil levels, topping up oil if neces-

sary

- Cover all blank mechanical components with a thin

film of oil or grease.

- Grease the tractor.

- Check the condition and acid density of the battery;

cover the battery terminals with non-acidic grease.

(Observe the instructions of the battery manufactur-

er.)

- Remove the battery and store in a frost-free, dry

room.

Engine Preservation

- Clean the engine.

- Run the engine warm.

- Drain the engine oil and refill with anti-corrosion oil.

- Drain some fuel and refill the fuel tank with a mix of

90 % Diesel fuel and 10 % anti-corrosion oil.

- Run the engine for 10 minutes.

- Switch off the engine.

- Turn the engine over a few times by hand.

- Block up the intake opening and exhaust outlet.

ATTENTION

The tractor must be blocked up so that all

the wheels are off the ground to prevent a

permanent deformation of the tires.

NOTE

Do not use plastic foil to cover the tractor as

this enhances the formation and collection

of condensate water.

Putting the Tractor Back in Service after a Lay-up

If the tractor was taken out or service for over six months,

it must be inspected carefully before being put back in

service. The inspection should, similar to the safety

inspection, also cover all safety points of the tractor.

- Clean the tractor thoroughly.

- Lubricate the tractor.

- Check the condition and acid density of the battery,

recharging it if necessary.
