3. ACTIVATION

Before you take over the machine, test and check it for any damages incurred during transportation and
check that all parts included in the delivery note have been delivered.

Before you put the machine into operation, read the Operating Manual carefully, particularly chapters A-
D p.4-7. Learn about the control elements of the machine and its overall function before the first use.
 When working with the machine, observe the instructions in the manual as well as generally valid rules
for the safety at work, protection of health, fire and traffic safety and protection of environment.

The operator must check the machine before every use (putting into operation) for aspects in the field
of completeness, safety at work, work hygiene, fire safety, traffic safety and protection of environment.
If the machine shows signs of damage, it must not be put into operation.

Execute aggregation of the machine with the tractor on an even and compact surface.

When working on slopes, observe the lowest slope accessibility of the whole set TRACTOR –
MACHINE.
 Before starting the engine of the tractor, check that there are no people or animals in the working area of
the set and press the warning sound signal.

The operator is responsible for safety and for all damages caused by the operation of the tractor and the
attached machine.
 The operator must observe technical and safety regulations of the machine determined by the Producer
when working with the machine.

The operator must raise the machine when turning at the headland, i.e. the working parts must not be in
the ground.
 The operator must observe the prescribed working depths and speeds set in the instructions for use in
Table 2/p.4 when working with the machine.

The operator must lower the machine to the ground and secure the set against movement before leaving
the cabin of the tractor.
 When lowering the machine down, make sure you do not damage the chisels and ploughshares by
dropping the machine on reinforced surface. Position the machine on an even surface so that the weight of
the machine is evenly distributed to all ploughshares.
3.1.AGGREGATION WITH THE TRACTOR

The machine may only be connected to a tractor whose standby weight equals or is
higher than the total weight of the attached machine.

The operator must observe all generally valid regulations for the safety at work,
protection of health, fire safety and protection of environment.
 The operator may only attach the machine to a tractor which is equipped with a rear three-point hitch
(TPH) and a functional undamaged hydraulic system.
