Safety rules
General recommen-
dations
Prior to switching on, check that the machine complies with safety
requirements and particularly that protective and safety devices (for
example moving guards, cover, hazard stickers, etc.) are in place and
functional.
Before you start work, familiarise yourself with all the equipment,
controls and functions on your machine. Once you have started, it is
too late.
If an operating incident occurs:
Shut down the machine immediately.
Identify the cause of the incident.
Make repairs before continuing.
No repair operations should be carried out on the machine unless:
•
all measures have been taken to prevent unintentional start-up
(uncouple the power take-off and/or hydraulic hoses, tractor
engine switched off, for example).
•
chocks have been placed under the chassis to prevent it falling,
•
the vehicle has been immobilised using the appropriate systems.
Before leaving the tractor:
Put the machine on the ground.
Activate the hand brake.
Remove the ignition key.
No one should stand between the tractor and the machine unless the
vehicle is immobilised (hand brake, chocks, etc.), the engine is
switched off and the ignition key removed.
