1: Maximum pressure valve for working head.
2: By-pass valve that needs to be closed when using a motorized tool. When using the hoeing blade it needs to be
open.
3: Setting of the closing speed of the GS-GE.
SAFETY MEASURES
Before working
Check the stratification, the ground type to work out the method of work, the adjustment and the speed of the
machine.
Always check that the safeguards are well installed and that no one is in the immediate area (50mtrs minimum).
Only use the machine if it is in perfect working order.
During work
Do not let anyone come within the working area; they must respect the minimum safe distance of 50 mtrs; cordon off
the working area and put warning signs up if necessary.
While working, keep other people far from the machine, and in particular from the sides of the machine
NEVER
STAY BETWEEN TRACTOR AND MACHINE
.
Use the tractor’s power take-off at 400 r.p.m. IN THE 540R.P.M. MODE, never for any reason whatsoever, set
it to a 1000 r.p.m
If you stop working; disconnect the power source, take out the ignition key and put on the handbrake before getting
out of the tractor.
Maintain an appropriate speed in order to avoid dangers to you, others and the equipment itself.
While working or during the machine’s moving, do not carry on the machine hanged or seated people.
When moving on inclined grounds avoid swerving which could cause sliding and overturning.
On uneven grounds or those with obstacles go as slow as possible.
When using the equipment after a long time of inactivity, we advise to check the functioning of the hydraulic system.
The way the equipment (when present) is used, must take into account the “equipment / vehicle” stability ratio; while
working continually check the stability.
During work always be alert.
When stopping or stationary pay attention to the ground where you have stopped making sure there are no bumps that
could compromise stability. Stop your vehicle and block the equipment in a way that it is secure and does not put you
or others at risk.
NOTE
Do not repair the machine with bad or improvised adjustment because it could cause a bad quality of the work For this
reason be sure that your tools are not consumed, pay attention to the working speed, elements which are linked
together.
RISKS
Every machine can cause a risks so this very dangerous let somebody be near the machine if not authorized.
In order to eliminate risks, REMEMBER to take of the key and to mount again the security devices in good and sure
position.
REGISTRATION
At a correct speed, the safety zone around the plants is given exclusively by the position and shape of the sensor rod.
If you wish to modify the non-intervention zone, change the sensor rod position or its bending according to your
needs.
This operation must be made only when the sensor rod is detached from the machine.
MAINTENANCE
Maintaining the machine in a perfect condition means it has a longer life expectancy and retains optimum
performance; thus regular small checks are necessary.
This allows for a perfect working order and good reliability.
Cleaning, lubrication and adjustment of the machine must be carried out when it has been turned off.
General safety measures
Do not allow unauthorized people to interfere with the machine.
Before carrying out checks or maintenance, verify that the machine is completely off.
Never put your fingers in the machine openings without protection.
Never align holes or with your fingers but only with the appropriate centering tools.
Do not touch tools without wearing the correct protective gloves.
