Meaning of warning 

signs

Read the operating manual
Read and follow the operating and safety instructions before using the 
machine for the first time. The machine must not be used for the first 
time until the operating manual has been read and understood. This 
applies in particular to the safety information. Otherwise, serious or fa-
tal injury may be caused as a result.

Switch off the engine
Only perform maintenance, repair and adjustment work when the ma-
chine is shut down. Otherwise, serious or fatal injury may be caused 
as a result.

Distance from the rotor 
Maintain a safe distance from the rotor when it is rotating. Nobody may 
remain in close proximity to the machine when rakes and swathers are 
running. Serious or fatal injury would be caused as a result.

Distance from tractor
When the machine is being coupled, uncoupled or operated, there 
should be no-one between the tractor and the machine. Otherwise, 
serious or fatal injury may be caused as a result.

Risk of crushing
Never reach into an area where there is a risk of crushing if parts in 
that area are still likely to move. Serious or fatal injury may be caused 
as a result.

Caution, parts ejected at speed
Hazard caused by parts which may become detached when the drive 
is in operation, and ejected at speed. Maintain a safe distance. Other-
wise, serious or fatal injury may be caused as a result.
