•
Before starting work, ensure that you understand all the equip-
ment and actuation elements of the machine and their function.
There is no time for this when the machine is already in opera-
tion.

Do not wear loose-fitting clothing. Loose clothing increases the
risk of being caught by the drive shaft.

Only start-up the machine, when all the safety equipment has
been attached and is in the safety position.

Comply with the maximum load for the connected machine and
the permissible axle and drawbar loads for the tractor. If neces-
sary, drive only with a partially filled tank.

It is forbidden to stand in the working area of the machine.
•
It is forbidden to stand in the turning and swivel range of the
machine.
•
There are crushing and cutting points at externally-actuated (e.g.
hydraulic) machine points.
•
Only actuate externally-actuated machine parts when you are
sure that no-one is standing within the prescribed safety dis-
tance.
•
Before leaving the tractor, secure it against unintended starting
and rolling.
To do this:
ο
lower the machine onto the ground
ο
apply the parking brake
ο
switch off the tractor engine
