5. Check that all safety devices such as pressure relief valves, etc., are in place and work properly. Familiarize yourself
with their use. Safety systems may never be bypassed.
6. Check the main hydraulic parts daily, and always after a fault. Replace any damaged parts immediately.
7. If a component is damaged, clean it before repairing it. Do not use solvents when cleaning parts.
8. Do not attempt to carry out repairs that you are not fully familiar with.
9. Never carry out repairs of the hydraulic circuit when the system is pressurized. When pressurized, the oil spray can
penetrate the skin and cause mortal danger.
10. Never work below a device or component that is only being held up by hydraulics. Use separate supports when
carrying out maintenance or repairs. Do not disconnect cylinders or their valves until the machine is well supported.
11. Most hydraulic oils do not evaporate easily. Risk factors include hot oil, spills and oil mist (pressurized).
12. If oil gets into your eyes, rinse with plenty of water and contact a doctor.
13. Avoid prolonged or repeated oil contact with your skin.
14. If sprays or contact with the skin cannot be avoided, use protective gloves, goggles and clothing as necessary. Do not
use oily clothing.
15. Avoid discharging hydraulic oil into the environment, as it can pollute waterways and the groundwater. If
biodegradable oil is to be used, contact the manu- facturer beforehand and have the suitability of your equipment
for the operation with biodegradable oil confirmed by him before such oil is used.
16. Store the oil in sealed containers provided by the manufacturer. Try to transfer the oil directly from its container
into the tank.
17. If the oil must be passed through other containers, ensure that they are completely clean. Caps, funnels, sieves and
filling holes must also be clean.
18. Never store oil outdoors, as water could condense in it.
19. Always dispose of oil in a suitable container, never into the environment!
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE WINCHES
1. Check that the wire cable is in good condition before using the winch (check for corrosion, sharp bends, breakage
and thickness of strands). If a cable snaps, it can whip towards the operator or away from the winch.
2. Operate the winch with a guide cable at least 2 meters away to the side of the machine. Do not operate the winch
from the tractor cabin unless a safety net has been installed.
3. When winching downhill, the pulling must be done from the side using an additional idler.
4. When winching on a hill, do not follow the load from below.
5. Side-winching must not be done at angles of more than 30 degrees.
6. It is extremely dangerous to be in the space between a load attached to the wire cable and the winch.
7. Check that all bystanders are at a safe distance of at least 15 meters whenever the machine is running. Place warning
signs on approaching roads.
8. Never touch the wire cable by hand during winching.
9. The maximum load must be adjusted to conditions.
10. Check that the winching chains are carefully attached. Do not attach the wire cable directly to the load.
11. The safety coefficient must be 2.5 for cable-type fasteners and 2 for chain-type fasteners.
12. Disconnect the transmission before examining the machine in the case of any faults.
13. Ensure the wire cable is as short as possible during transport.
14. The winch may only be used for winching and hauling. Do not use the winch for lifting loads.
Noise from the winch exceeds 70 dBs in operation.
Wear ear protection!
