Safety
12
Never work on the machine while it is running
No operations may be performed on the machine while it is running.
Objects or persons can be caught, drawn in or crushed. Serious or
fatal injury may be caused as a result.
PTO shaft
Use only the PTO shafts specified by the manufacturer and read the
attached operating manual carefully. Adjust the length of the PTO
shaft as required. Incorrect PTO shaft lengths can cause damage to
the machine and personal injury.
Check and fasten the PTO shaft guard in position
The rotating PTO shaft is protected by the PTO shaft guard. Ensure
that the guard is not damaged. Fasten the PTO shaft guard in position
by connecting the chains on the implement and the tractor. Unguarded
PTO shafts can cause life-threatening injuries.
Make sure the machine is standing level
Before changing from the transport to the work position (and vice
versa), make sure the machine is standing level. Otherwise, damage
to the machine and serious or fatal injury may be caused as a result.
Do not make any modifications to the machine
No modifications of any kind may be made to the machine. Unau-
thorised modifications can adversely affect the correct operation and
safety of the machine and shorten its service life. Unauthorised mod-
ifications to the machine render the manufacturer's guarantee null and
void and free the manufacturer from all liability.
PTO shaft speed 540 rpm
The specified maximum PTO shaft speed of 540 rpm must not be
exceeded. A higher PTO shaft speed will damage the machine.
Unrestricted field of vision to the rear
After it has been coupled, ensure that you have an unrestricted view
of the machine, in both its work and transport positions. At the very
least, use the panorama mirror provided by the tractor manufacturer.
Otherwise, dangerous situations may not be detected in time.
resulting in accidents or damage.
