Children in danger
Children are not able to assess dangers and may
behave unpredictably. Children are therefore
especially endangered:
¾
Keep children away from the machine.
¾
Especially before driving off and before trig -
gering machine movements you must make
sure that the danger zone is free of children.
¾
Shut down the tractor before leaving it.
Children can trigger dangerous machine
movements. An insufficiently secured ma -
chine parked without being attended poses
a danger for playing children!
Personal protective outfit
Missing or incomplete protective equipment
increases the risk of health damage. Personal
protective equipment includes, e.g.:
¾
tight fitting clothes / protective clothing, pos -
sibly a hair net
¾
Safety shoes
¾
Safety gloves
¾
safety goggles to protect the eyes against
dust or spray, when working with fertiliser or
liquid fertiliser (follow the instructions of the
fertiliser manufacturer)
¾
respirator masks and protective gloves when
handling dressing or dressed seed (follow
the instructions of the pickling agent manu-
facturers)
¾
Determine the personal protective equipment
for the corresponding work assignment.
¾
Provide effective protective equipment in
proper condition.
¾
Never wear rings, bracelets or other jewellery.
Safety in traffic
DANGER
No passengers are allowed to ride on the
machine!
¾
Pay attention to the permissible transport
widths and heights. Pay attention to the trans-
port height when passing under bridges and
low hanging overhead power lines.
¾
Do not exceed the permissible axle load, tyre
load bearing capacity and total weight, in or-
der to ensure sufficient steering and braking
capabilities. The front axle must be loaded
with at least 20 % of the tractor weight.
¾
For machines without brake select the weight
of the tractor and the speed so that the ma-
chine can be managed securely under all
conditions.
For road transport the machine must be set to
transport position. The machine must be folded
up and secured, see chapter Folding in , Connecting
and Transport position .
¾
Clean soil from the folding areas before fold-
ing in. Otherwise there could be damage to
the mechanics.
¾
If present: Secure the hydraulic cylinders on
undercarriage and drawbar in transport posi-
tion against uncontrolled movements using
aluminium clips, see chapter Connecting and
Transport position
.
¾
Assemble lighting, warning and protective
features and check the function.
¾
Before road travel clean the entire machine
from picked up dirt.
Handling is affected by the connected equip -
ment.
