Protruding parts (ploughshares, etc.) can cause
injury!
2.9.9 Action in the event of a voltage
discharge
Voltage discharges cause high electrical voltages on the
outside of the machine. Large voltage differences appear
on the floor around the machine. Taking big steps, lying on
the floor or touching the ground with your hands can cause
deadly electric currents (step voltage).
Do not leave the cab.
Do not touch metal objects.
Do not make any conductive connection with the ground.
Warn people: NOT to go near the
machine. Electrical voltages on the ground can cause
powerful electric shocks.
Wait for professional help. The overhead line must be cut.
If people have to leave the cab despite voltage discharges,
e.g. when there is immediate danger of death from fire:
Jump out of the machine. Be careful to maintain stability
while jumping. Do not touch the outside of the machine.
Move away from the machine taking small steps.
2.9.10 Technical limit values
If the technical limits of the machine are not respected, the
machine may be damaged. This can lead to accidents and
serious injury or death.
The following technical limit values are particularly important
for safety:
• total permissible weight
• maximum axle loads
• maximum load transfer
• maximum speed
Also observe the maximum tractor loads.
To calculate the permissible loads and weights, refer to
section ‘3.4 Ballast calculation’.
2.9.11
Use in the field
Before start-up and commissioning, make sure that no one
is near the machine (children). Ensure that there is sufficient
visibility.
Ensure sufficient stability of the machine in case of
longitudinal and transversal slopes on uneven ground.
Observe the permitted limit values for the tractor.
None of the prescribed and supplied protective devices may
be removed.
Ensure that no one is in the pivoting range of hydraulically
operated machine parts.
Do not reverse the machine when it is lowered. The
components are only designed to move forwards in the field
and could be damaged when travelling in reverse.
2.9.12 Replacement of worn parts
Secure the machine so that it does not move unexpectedly!
The raised frame sections under which you are positioned
must be secured with suitable supports!
Never climb on rotating parts to get on the machine. These
could spin and you could be seriously injured if you fall.
2.9.13 Transportation on public roads
Machines must always be used in accordance with the
applicable guidelines and regulations concerning accident
prevention, road safety and occupational health.
Before any movement:
- Check the wheel studs and tandem mounting bolts (if fitted)
for tightness.
- Check the functioning of the lighting equipment.
- Check tyre pressure and condition:
• Do not drive with low pressures or damaged tyres or
rims.
When driving, use all the lighting and signalling devices
required by law in the country of use. If necessary, they can
be removed during field work to prevent damage.
It is forbidden to carry passengers on the
machine!
