Instructions for work

3. Machine use

Before shredding: Keep all persons and
animals away from the machine danger zone.

If using a tractor with a cab that is not sound-
proofed or pressurized, the operator must
use individual protection equipment:

Ear protections, if the noise exceeds normal
exposure limits.

Anti-dust mask if working in very dry
conditions or when large quantities of dust
are lifted.

If the machine starts vibrating oddly during
work, immediately stop and check the
condition of the rotor, the cutting tools and
the balancing ballast. Excessive vibration
can cause physical harm to the user.

The top link is in floating position during work to
provide good ground adaptation in irregular
grounds.
