Before using the machine, check tools (tines) and their
attachment hardware in accordance with the instructions
of the present manual.
Check the guards regularly. Immediately replace any
damaged or missing elements.
Before engaging the pto drive, lower the rotors onto the

persons and animals away from the danger zone.
Stay a safe distance from the Gyrorake when rotors are

If an obstacle is hit, disengage the PTO drive, stop the
