INTRODUCTION
A1 About hay rakes
The hay rake is an agricultural device used to collect cut forage. The “Easy
Rake” models produced by our company, all trailer-type, comprise a
flexible, sturdy frame enabling use on any type of land, even if extremely
irregular or on a slope. The main component is the rake wheel, 14 of which
make up the device. Each wheel is separate from the other and comprises
a shock absorbing spring for the wheel to perfectly follow the surface of the
land.
The hay rake has to be attached to an agricultural tractor for it to work. The
arms and stars move hydraulically and the entire rake is trailed by the
tractor to which it is attached. Operation and use of the rake is described in
greater detail in the relative chapter.
A2 About the manual
The ENOROSSI firm (the “Manufacturer”) designed and created the device
in accordance with the relative safety standards to ensure the safety of
personnel and the entire operating system.
Each rake is supplied with a copy of this manual, which the operator must
read in full before using the equipment. The manual contains all information
relating to transportation, use and maintenance of the equipment, as well
as relative safety instructions.
Poor knowledge of the operating system can lead to accidents and
therefore damage to the equipment. Although the Manufacturer provides
the Customer with all information relating to the rake's operation, use and
maintenance, the Customer is still expected to read this manual and take
note of all the instructions herein.
The manual provides all basic instructions on how to ensure optimum
working and safety conditions, but the most important factors to ensure the
device's good working order are the operator's experience and common
sense.
The manual was drawn up on the basis of both the rake models' current
technical and structural characteristics and does not take previous similar
models into account. The Manufacturer therefore reserves the right to
modify models in production in the interest of improving the product or in
accordance with any new legislation (Machinery Directive) without
obligation for adapting previous models.
This manual is integral to the rake and must therefore be kept intact, clean
and in good condition, and stored in a container, either on the frame of the
equipment or in the tractor cabin, where it can be readily accessed for
consultation.
The manual must be kept in its container if the rake is placed out of
service. Ask the Manufacturer for a duplicate copy if the original manual is
lost.
Please contact the Manufacturer for any clarifications relating to the
instructions in this manual. If the translated copy of this manual is unclear
in any way, the valid text of reference is the original one in Italian.
Symbols used in this manual:
-
WARNING , with associated pictogram, indicates
potential danger and therefore the need for the operator
to exercise caution and common sense;
- IMPORTANT indicates that the operator must be aware
of the matter referred to;
-
Note indicates that the information referred to can facilitate the
operator's work.
A3 Warranty
The Manufacturer's warranty guarantees that all parts of the rake are free
of defects as they are all tested before delivery to the Customer. The
warranty is valid for a year (or for whatever duration is stipulated in the
purchase contract) from the date specified in the fiscal delivery document,
but is not valid during transportation as the Customer is responsible for its
shipment. The warranty does not cover commercial components that are
covered by the warranty of their original manufacturer.
