Keep your equipment in proper working conditions. Unauthorized to the machine may impair the functions

and/or safety and have a negative impact on the efficiency thereof.

If you are not sure or you do not understand any part of this manual, before taking any action seek

assistance and please contact your nearest OLIMAC dealer.

Keep your corn head in good working condition. Unauthorized modifications may damage the safety functions

and affect the equipment life/warranty.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL

COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURIES

AVOID BEING CAUGHT:

To avoid being caught:

No activity or operation must be conducted with staff in the vicinity of the head when it is

operating.

The personnel should not wear clothing unsuitable for work such as belts

or parts of loose or fluttering fabric.

It is strictly forbidden to attempt to intervene with temporary non-

dedicated tools during normal operation of the machine or to resolve

anomalies.

Any operation, also unclogging the head, must be carried out when the

machine is stopped and powered down as described in the following

chapters.

Failure to follow instructions could be fatal since the harvesting system is

aggressive in nature.

When being caught, you must:

Secure the machine by removing and by disconnecting from any source of energy;

as appropriate, disassemble and remove the parts that cause entanglement or manually operate

the rotation of the moving parts in the reverse, making sure, beforehand, to avoid further injury.
