SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
4.1. Safety rules and regulations
Front or rear axis of the tractor should be balanced to enable its steering. If necessary, use front
or rear wheel weights.
In order to keep steering conditions, make sure that impact on the front axis is at least 20% of
the complete impact on the tractor.
Any operation with the hydraulic lift lever should be done from the operator's seat; never
operate the lever from outside of the tractor.
For tractors equipped with EHR, control with hydraulic lift is done with a button located outside
the tractor's cabin. When operating, please exercise particular caution.
When mounting the mower on a tractor, risk of wounding is likely. It is recommended that
operator wears protective gloves.
Do not operate without safety guards. Neither operation with damaged nor raised guard is
allowed (risk of stones, etc. being thrown out). Damaged safety curtain should be replaced.
Please make sure that no unauthorized personnel remains within the danger area of at least 164
ft (50m). Keep particular caution when operating near roads and in stony areas.
Perform any maintenance and adjustment work only when the drive is disconnected and rotor
has stopped completely.
When driving on public roads always comply with local traffic regulations, especially on the
warning lights.

Make sure to perform any service and repair operations with the tractor drive
shut off and after all rotating parts have stopped completely.
