Transport
Check the decoupling ropes of the quick coupling
The decoupling ropes must never be tense and must provide sufficient
freedom for movement, even with the power lift in the lowest position
as it could otherwise accidentally disconnect the quick coupling.
Drive carefully
Moving behaviour, maneuverability and braking performance are
influenced by a trailed machine. When taking turns, pay attention to
the extended width/length (turning circle) and/or large mass
(sluggishness) of the machine! Ensure sufficient braking effect and
safe manageability! Careless driving could lead to serious injury and
damage to the machine.
Adjust the driving speed
High driving speeds and uneven surfaces on the road or field can put
considerable strain on the machine and cause the tractor or machine
to be overstrained, which could lead to damage. Always adjust the
driving speed to the conditions of the environment and the terrain!
When driving up and down hills and across slopes, do not make any
sudden turns!
On the field
Do not leave the driving cabin
Never leave the operator’s seat during operation or transport. The
driver can be in the danger zone of the tractor or the machine and
could not have a proper view of the immediate vicinity. This could lead
to injury to the driver or third parties.
Do not allow the machine to tilt
When driving up and down hills and across slopes, do not make any
sudden turns! Do not drive transverse on a slope with a steep angle.
Tilting can cause serious machine damage.
Blockade of a security device
In case of blockade or operation of a security device, never work on
the machine without:
•
placing the tractor and machine on a firm, flat surface,
•
switching off the PTO shaft,
•
switching off the electronic control system,
•
releasing the pressure from the hydraulic system,
•
placing all controls in their neutral or park position,
•
switching off the tractor engine,
•
the key must be removed from the ignition,
•
engaging the parking brake of the tractor.
PTO shaft rotates after disengaging
After switching off the PTO shaft, the machine will continue running
because of inertia. Keep a safe distance to the machine until the
moving parts have come to a complete stop. Approaching the
machine while it is rotating can cause serious or deadly injuries.
