WARNING
Danger from being entangled and drawn in and danger from for-

eign objects being caught and thrown in the danger area of the

driven PTO shaft!

•

Whenever the machine is used, first check to ensure that the

safety devices and guards of the PTO shaft are fully intact and

functional.

Have damaged safety devices and guards of the PTO shaft re-

placed immediately by a specialised workshop.

•

Maintain a sufficient safety clearance between you and the driv-

en PTO shaft.

•

Direct people out of the danger area of the driven PTO shaft.

•

Shut down the tractor engine immediately in case of danger.

WARNING
Risk of contusions, cutting, catching, drawing in and knocks

through unintentional releasing of the coupled machine!

Before each use of the machine, carry out a visual check that the

upper and lower link pins are firmly secured against unintentional

release.

WARNING
Danger of catching or entanglement and drawing in or entrap-

ment of loose clothing by moving elements (rotating spreading

discs)!

Do not wear loose-fitting clothing. Tight clothing reduces the risk of

unintentional catching or entanglement and drawing in or entrapment

by moving elements.

•

For new machines, after 3-4 full hopper loads, check that the

screws are tight and retighten if necessary.

•

Use only fertiliser with the proper grain size, of the kinds listed in

the setting chart. If you do not have accurate knowledge of the

fertiliser, check the fertiliser lateral distribution for the set working

width using the mobile fertiliser test rig.

•

When spreading mixed fertilisers, note the following:

Each variety may have different flight characteristics.

The individual varieties may separate.

•

After ever use, remove any fertiliser clinging to the spreading

vanes.
