CLEANING THE TRACTOR
Your tractor is a state-of-the-art machine with
sophisticated, electronic controls. This should be
taken into consideration when cleaning the
tractor, particularly if using a high-pressure
washer. Even though every precaution has been
taken to safeguard electronic components and
connections, the pressure generated by some of
these machines is such that complete protection
against water ingress cannot be guaranteed.
When using a high pressure washer, do not
stand too close to the tractor and avoid directing
the jet at electronic components, electrical
connections, breathers, seals, filler caps, etc.
Never direct a cold-water jet at a hot engine or
exhaust.
SERVICE PARTS
It should be pointed out that genuine parts have
been examined and approved by the Company.
The installation and/or use of ‘non-genuine’
products could have negative effects upon the
design characteristics of your tractor and thereby
affect it’s safety. The Company is not liable for
any damage caused by the use of ‘non--genuine’
parts and accessories. Only genuine SHIBAURA
replacement parts should be used. The use of
non-genuine parts may invalidate legal approvals
associated with this product.
It is prohibited to carry out any modifications to
the tractor unless specifically authorized, in
writing, by the After Sales Service department of
the Company.
Electro-magnetic Interference (EMC)
This tractor complies strictly with the European
Regulations on electro-magnetic emissions.
However, interference may arise as a result of
add-on equipment, which may not necessarily
meet the required standards. As such
interference can result in serious malfunction of
the unit and/or create unsafe situations, you
must observe the following:
Ensure that each piece of non-SHIBAURA
equipment fitted to the tractor bears the CE
mark.
The maximum power of emission equipment
(radio, telephones, etc.) must not exceed the
limits imposed by the national authorities of
the country where you use the tractor.
The electro-magnetic field generated by the
add-on system should not exceed 24V/m at
any time and at any location in the proximity
of electronic components.
Failure to comply with these rules will render the
SHIBAURA warranty null and void
