2.1.1 Warnings
Agricultural accidents can be prevented with your help.
All accident prevention depends on the full co-operation of the persons using or involved with service or
maintenance of the machine.
Most accidents can be avoided by observing simple safety rules.
The best safety system
is one in which the operator observes all applicable regulations for machine safety
and maintenance.
Some of the illustrations contained in this manual were obtained by photographing combine models of the
same series, which may be differently equipped. This means that apparent discrepancies may result
between your combine and those depicted in this manual.

guards prior to machine operation.
