STARTING WORK
Safety advice
1. Check
- Check the condition of knives and the knife holder.
- Check cutting discs for damage (see chapter
"Maintenance").
2. Switch machine on in working position only
and do not exceed the specified p.t.o. speed
(e.g. max. 540 rpm)!
A transfer, located near the gearing, advises which p.t.o.
speed your mower unit is equipped for.
• Always and only switch the p.t.o. drive on when all
safety devices (covers, protective clothes, casings) are
in proper condition and are attached to the implement
in their safety positions.
3. Pay attention to correct p.t.o.
direction of rotation!
4. Prevent any damage!
The area to be mowed must be free
of obstacles or foreign objects. Such
objects (e.g. large stones, pieces of
wood, boundary stones, etc.) can
damage the mower unit.
In the event of contact
• Stop immediately and switch off the drive.
• Check the implement carefully for any damage In
particular check the mowing discs and their drive shafts
(4a).
• If necessary have it checked over in the work
shop as well.
After contact with a foreign object
• Check the condition of knives and the knife fixings.
• Retighten all knife screw fittings.
• Check the implement carefully for any damage. The
mowing discs and their drive shaft must be checked in
particular.
• If necessary have it checked over in the work shop as
well.
5. Keep away from the engine when running.

• Guide people out of the danger area as they may receive
injuries from foreign objects being ejected by the mower.
Special care is necessary on stony ground and near
roads and paths.
6. Wear hearing protection
The noise level in the workplace can deviate
from the measured value (see Technical
Data) partly because of the differing cabin
types of various tractors.
• If an 85 dB(A) noise level is reached or exceeded, then
the farmer (or contractor) must provide appropriate
hearing protection (UVV 1.1 § 2).
• If a noise level of 90 dB (A) is reached or exceeded,
then hearing protection must be worn (UVV 1.1 § 16).
Note direction of rotation of mower discs
General
For mowing the p.t.o. must rotate anticlockwise.
TD40/94/16
