6 Notes on safety
The HEXAGON may only be operated when all the protective facilities and safety-related devices are installed
and operable.
Faults which may reduce the machine safety are to be rectified without delay by qualified staff.
Do not change any hydraulic connections. This can lead to malfunctions and thus jeopardize
people’s safety.
The operating manuals of any additional attachments are to be studied and observed carefully.
During operations no one may remain within a radius of 10 metres from the HEXAGON.
The driver of the tractor is responsible for this.
The HEXAGON should only be used in adequate daylight conditions to prevent damage to the machine and
accidents.
Before use the hydraulic lines are to be checked for damage and ageing and replaced if necessary.
CAUTION: Oil spraying out can cause injuries and pollution to the environment!
Maintenance and repair work may only be performed when the hydraulic lines have been uncoupled from the
tractor.
It is not permitted for people to travel on the HEXAGON even for short distances.
Never climb or reach in between the basic frame and sliding units with your arms or legs (
risk of crushing!
). It is
only
permitted to adjust the width of the HEXAGON from the driver’s seat.
Never linger under a HEXAGON coupled to a tractor as the machine can be lowered at any time (
serious risk of
injury!
).
Never let the HEXAGON be operated on its own or in conjunction with other equipment by people who are not
familiar with the safety and operating instructions.
The provision of the Regulations Authorizing the Use of Vehicles for Road Traffic must be observed for journeys
on public roads.
The accident prevention regulati
ons of the employer’s liability insurance association must be observed.
