4.3 Fire precautions
Be aware that crops are easily inflammable.
Do not smoke or make use of any open fire next to the machine.
A functioning fire extinguisher should always be available on the tractor.
The machine is to be kept clear of oil, grease, crops, string, plastic or any
other flammable material at all times.
Do not continue to work with overheated parts, cables or pipes, unless you
have identified and eliminated the reason for overheating.
Equipment being refuelled should have its engine turned off before refuelling.
Personnel should be instructed on how to properly refuel equipment: do
periodic maintenance checks on the tank, pump, hose and nozzle; and abide
by safety rules, such as not smoking when around the refuelling area.
4.4 Special safety devices/instructions
When maintenance or repair work has to be carried out on the machine, the
hand brake must be applied, engine shut down with ignition key removed. The
PTO shaft must be removed from the PTO stub, with the hydraulic and electric
power supply disconnected. It is forbidden to open any safety guards or carry
out any work on the machine unless the specified precautions have been
carried out.
Always use protective clothing and gloves when working with blades or sharp
objects.
WARNING: Shut down engine before performing maintenance!
Ensure the engine has been shut down and PTO has been disconnected
before carrying out maintenance on the machine. Never attempt to go
near the machine until it and the tractor have both come to a complete
stop. This is extremely important when checking/replacing blades, where
there is a risk of mutilation.
