Groundspeed
Groundspeed must be adapted to the encountered
working conditions.
Before engaging the machine in the ground:
- Check that nobody is within the machine pivoting area.
- If there is someone, make sure the person moves away.
Pay particular attention if working on very uneven grounds.
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.
Check blade condition before each use or
immediately after hitting an obstacle.
