bsb 447 410
5. Keep away when motor is running
-
Keep people out of the danger area as injury can occur
through out-thrown foreign bodies.
Take particular care on stoney fields, and near roads and
paths.
6. Wear hearing protection
The noise level in the working place can differ from the
measured values (see Technical Data), particularly through
the various designs of the different tractor cabins.
• When a noise level of 85 dB(A) is reached or exceeded,
then the employer (farmer) must have suitable hearing
protection available (UVV 1.1 §2).
-
When a noise level of 90 dB(A) is reached or exceeded,
then hearing protection must be worn (UVV 1.1 § 16).
7. Check condition of V-belts
Replace worn out or damaged V-belts!
8. Check V-belt tension!
The disc on the pressure spring should be set at the top
control measurement. Adjustment takes place by turning the
adjusting nut accordingly. Secure again with the locking nut
afterwards (see chapter "Maintenance and Service").
9. To mow, slowly throw-in the p.t.o. away from the forage
to be mowed and bring the mowing drum up to full
speed.
An even continuous increase in r.p.m. prevents operating
noises in the drive shaft free-running.
-
The speed of travel depends on the terrain and forage to
be mowed.
To operate
Important points before starting work
• Safety advice:
see Supplement A1, pts. 1-4 and 6-8.
1.
Check:
- Check wear of blade bolt (31).
Replace blade holder when bolt diameter is less than 9 mm.
- Check blade holder (30) on damage.
- In case of grinding noises check whether the blade holder
(30) is buckled and therefore the blade does not lie correctly
any more.
2. Only turn machine on when in work position and do not
exceed the stipulated p.t.o. r.p.m. according to gearing
fitted: 540 or 1000 r.p.m.!
• In principle, only turn p.t.o. on when all safety equipment
(covers, protective aprons, facings, etc.) are in proper
order and are in their protective position on the implement.
3. Ensure the correct p.t.o. rotation direction! If rotation
direction is wrong then the drive runs empty in the drive
shaft free-running.
4. Prevent damage!
• The area to be mowed must be free of obstacles or
foreign bodies. These (e.g. rocks, pieces of wood,
boundary markers, etc.) can damage the mowing unit.
Should a collision occur
• Stop immediately and turn drive off.
• Check machine carefully for damage.
• Let a specialist work shop make an additional check if
necessary.
