Life-threatening electric shock from overhead lines
With tailgate open, the machine may reach the height of overhead lines. This may cause
voltage to flash over to the machine and cause a fatal electric shock or fire.
Keep a safe distance from electric overhead lines when opening the tailgate.
Never open the tailgate near pylons and overhead lines.
Keep a safe distance from electric overhead lines when the tailgate is open.
To avoid a potential electric shock caused by a voltage flashover, never exit from or climb
into the tractor under overhead lines.
Behaviour in case of voltage flashover of overhead lines
Electroconductive parts of the machine could be subject to high electrical voltage caused by
voltage flashover. A voltage drop where major voltage differences are present is created on the
ground around the machine in case of voltage flashover. Due to major voltage differences in the
ground, you could be killed by electric shocks when you make big steps, lay on the ground or
support yourself with your hands.
Do not leave the cabin.
Do not touch any metal parts.
Do not establish any conductive connection to the ground.
Warn persons: Do not approach the machine. Electrical voltage on the ground may lead to
severe electric shocks.
Wait for help from professional rescue teams. The overhead line must be switched off.
If people have to leave the cabin despite the voltage flashover, for example because there is an
imminent threat to life due to fire:
Avoid simultaneous contact with machine and ground.
Jump away from the machine. Jump into a safe standing position. Do not touch the machine
from the outside.
Move away from the machine with very small steps. In doing so, make sure that your feet
are close to one another.

Sources of danger on the machine
Noise may damage your health
The noise development of the machine during operation may cause health damage such as
hardness of hearing, deafness or tinnitus. When using the machine at high rotational speed, the
noise level also increases.
Before the machine is started up for the first time, assess the danger by noise. Depending
on the ambient conditions, working hours and the working and operating conditions of the
machine, specify and use suitable hearing protection.
Specify rules for the use of hearing protection and for the working time.
During operation keep windows and doors of cabin closed.
Remove hearing protection for road travel.
Liquids under high pressure
The following liquids are under high pressure:
