zone before starting spreading.
•
Never leave the spreader to operate without supervision.
•
Passengers are prohibited on the spreader during work and during transport.
•
Make sure that no one can switch on the spreader accidentally when carrying out inspections
or repairs.
•
Before leaving the tractor lower the spreader to the ground, switch off the engine and remove
the ignition key. Stopping spreader without tractor: this must be done with an empty hopper on
a firm, level surface.
•
Make sure no one is between the tractor and the spreader unless the tractor is secured to
prevent it from rolling away with the parking brake and/or wheel chocks.
•
Note the reduction of weight on the front wheels of the tractor. Driving behaviour, steering and
braking capacity are influenced by mounted or attached equipment and ballast weights. Make
sure that there is sufficient steering and braking capacity. Observe the approved axle loads
and approved total weight of the tractor.
•
We recommend having your dealer check the condition of the spreader after every season.
•
If the spreader is damaged, stop it immediately. Remove the ignition key from the tractor and
repair the damage.
•
Damage to the universal drive shaft must be repaired immediately before working with the
spreader.
•
Improper selection or use of material may cause serious damage to persons, animals, plants
and the environment. Select the correct spreader material for your application. Handle it with
care. Follow the directions of the manufacturer of the material exactly.
