Safety instructions
General information
Do not start-up the machine if there are persons in exposed positions* within a hazardous area**.
When persons are in exposed positions (e.g. in connection with adjustment, maintenance,
attachment and uncoupling), the following conditions must be observed:
1. The machine must be lowered to firm ground.
2. The hydraulics must be relieved.
3. The tractor must be stopped and the key removed from the ignition switch.
4. The driver must ensure that no persons are in exposed positions during the operation.
* Persons in exposed positions: Any person who is wholly or
partly within a hazardous area.
** Hazardous area: On and under the machine within a distance
of 10 m from the machine.
Most accidents that happen in connection with the operation, transport and
maintenance of machines are caused by non-compliance with the most elementary safety
conditions.
Therefore it is vital that anybody working at the machine carefully complies with the safety
instructions as well as other instructions applying to the machine.
The machine may only be operated, maintained and repaired by persons, who are familiar with
this work and who are further familiar with the possible elements of danger with this particular
machine.
Instructions on transport on public roads
Check before transport on public roads that the attachment of the machine at the tractor is in
accordance with the local rules and regulations in force (permitted total weight, permitted axle load,
transport width, lights, warning signs, etc.).
The transport wheels and construction of the King-Rollers were designed for maximum speeds of
30 km/h.
If this speed is exceeded, all warranty claims are repealed.
Front axle load
After the attachment of the machine and at maximum load, the driving properties of the tractor must
be checked. Check that the front axle is sufficiently loaded. As a minimum, the front axle load must
be 20% of the tractor weight. Permitted axle load and permitted total weight for the tractor must
always be observed.
NB! The driving, controlling and braking properties are affected by the attached machine
combination.
