Correct use of combine
This self-propelled combine is designed solely for
use in customary agricultural operations (intended
use).
Use in any other way is considered as contrary to
the intended use. The manufacturer accepts no
liability for any damage or injury resulting from this
misuse and these risks must be born solely by the
user.
Compliance and strict adherence to the conditions
of operation, service and repair as specified by the
manufacturer also constitute essential elements for
the intended use.
This combine should be operated, serviced and
repaired only by persons familiar with all its parti-
cular characteristics and acquainted with the rele-
vant safety rules (accident prevention).
The accident prevention regulations, all other
generally recognized regulations on safety and
occupational medicine and the road traffic regula-
tions must be observed at all times.
Fitting and retrofitting of ancillary equipment which
is not originally manufactured by CLAAS, and, in
addition, also modifications and changes must only
be carried out with the consent of CLAAS, as any
such actions may have adverse affects on the
safety and operational function of the machine.
Any arbitrary modifications carried out on the
combine will relieve the manufacturer of all liability
for any resulting damage or injury.
