DANGER CAUSED BY LIQUIDS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE
-
The liquid which leaks from the pipes can be under high
pressure and can cause injuries to your skin, even more; it
can cause dangerous injuries if the liquid spreads under
your skin.
-
Never try to dismount a hydraulic pipe or any other of the
hydraulic installation as long as this one is under high
pressure. Before you start up the hydraulic system make
sure that the installation is safe.
-
Help yourself with a piece of cardboard when trying to find the place of leakage. Protect your
hands and body by means of gloves and protective clothing if you are handling a high pressure
hydraulic system.
-
In the case of injury immediately call your personal physician. Each penetration through the
skin must be stopped; the liquid must be removed within few hours.

WORKING PLACE OF THE OPERATOR
-
There is only one person needed for operation the machine. This person does not need an
assistant. The operator of the sprayer is also the driver of the tractor.
-
This machine can be operated by a person who is older than 18 years and has the needed know-
how that is needed for a safe and accurate operation of sprinkling appliances.
-
The person needs to be in good health – mentally and physically.
-
Operational work and maintaining of the sprayer can be only carried out by authorized personal
that has the needed know-how for this type of work.
-
The operator of the sprayer must have a medical certificate (in accordance with local
regulations).
-
The working place of the operator: 1 meter around the machine and tractor.
-
While sprinkling keep the windows and doors of the tractor closed. It is recommended that the
operator has a hermetically closed cabin which allows the operator to create overpressure with
aeration of fresh air that disables chemically polluted air to enter the cabin.
-
While sprinkling, it is recommended that the operator stays in the cabin for about 90-95% of
the time, so the chemical agents cannot have influence on his or hers health. Should the
operator notice a change in the working of his or hers organs or feel dizzy, he or she should
immediately put on the protection breathing mask.
However, the best thing to do is to leave the field and
look for shelter in a cleaner area.
3.10
PERSONAL PROTECTION
-
The operator is advised to use well buttoned clothing
and efficient protection equipment while working.
-
The operator can come in contact with chemicals
through his or her skin, mouth or nose. If you do not
work safely even the best protection equipment cannot be any use to you.
-
A safe working with sprayers requires full attention of the operator, so listening to music (per
headphones) while working is not recommended.
