Perform any inspection, repair and maintenance works as well as cleaning parts or assemblies
when the drive is switched off and there is no pressure in the hydraulics, having taken the
ignition key off and set the aggregation of tractor and machine in a standstill position (Journal
of Laws No. 12/98 item 51.)
•
Inspect bolts and other fasteners regularly. Do not operate with damaged or worn fasteners.
•
Do not operate with damaged or worn fasteners. When the rubber guard shows signs of
ageing (e.g. microcracks over the surface), it should be replaced.
•
Do not perform any repair works underneath the lifted machine’s assemblies, unless protected
against free falling (Journal of Laws No. 12/98 item 51.)
•
Replace damaged or worn (aged 5 years or older) hydraulic hoses and other hydraulic parts as
recommended by the Manufacturer.
•
Before any operation, check the condition of cutting knives. If blunt, rotate the knife by 1/3
turn (3 sharp cutting edges per a single knife can be achieved), or handle it for a recovery.
Damaged or worn blades must be replaced.
•
Use only original spare parts ordered at our store or at your dealer.
•
During operation, maintenance and adjustment, always wear protective gloves, shoes and
clothing without loose elements, belts, etc. Always respect warnings on safety labels attached
to the machine.
•
When operating the hydraulics, always wear protective eyewear and gloves. Hydraulic oil
leaking under pressure (16 MPa) may penetrate the skin and cause its irritation thereafter. In
such case, visit a doctor immediately.
•
In the event of a serious failure, please call for technical service, and if an accident (in this
case: road accident) occurs, respect first aid rules and contact responsible authorities.
