SAFE OPERATION.
MANOEUVRING ON SOFT GROUND.
Avoid driving on very soft or unstable ground. The machine could sink, slide, slew or turn over.
INCLINED SURFACES.
Manoeuvring on inclined surfaces is dangerous. Expand the track base and reduce the
manoeuvring speed in order to avoid the risk of tipping the machine over and skidding.
As far as possible avoid turning on inclined surfaces. When you have to turn on slopes, try to
do it on solid, non slippery sections.
Avoid traversing along steep slopes, since there's always the danger of overturning the
machine.
This machine is rated to climb slopes of up to 20°. Operating on slopes is undertaken at users
risk.
Before trying to go up a slope, make sure that the engine and the hydraulic system has
reached normal operating temperature. This will help prevent stalling.
CLOTHING.
DO NOT wear rings, bracelets, watches, jewellery or any other items that could be caught in
the machine controls. Always wear full protective clothing.
SMOKING.
DO NOT smoke when refueling.
CHILDREN.
DO NOT allow children or anyone who has not received instruction to operate the machine.
CLIMBING.
DO NOT climb on the machine at any time.
SAFETY OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC.
The Stump Grinder Cutter can eject debris at high speed - always maintain a 20 metre
exclusion zone for the general public. USE SUFFICIENT SCREENING TO PROTECT
AGAINST FLYING DEBRIS
