dispositivi di comando e le loro funzioni. 

  Before starting work, practice with the controls 

and their functions. 

 WARNING

 

The  operation  of  the  machine  by  anyone  who 
has  not  read  and  assimilated  the  instructions 
herein,  as  well  as  by  unskilled  personnel,  or 
by personnel not in good health or not holding 
the right driving license, is strictly forbidden. 

  The area in which the machine is used is to be 

considered  a 

hazard

  zone,  especially  for 

people not trained in the machine use. Before 
starting  up  the  machine,  make  sure  there  are 
no people, animals or obstacles of any nature 
around the work area.  

  When  a  person  is 

«exposed»

,  that  is  when 

standing  in  a  «hazardous  area»,  the  operator 
must  take  immediate  measures,  stop  the 
machine and eventually make sure the person 
is moved away. 

  During  the  operation  of  the  machine,  the 

operator  must  seat  in  the  tractor  so  that  he 
cannot  fall  accidentally  and  so  that  the  whole 
machine  is  under  his  control,  and  that 
appropriate action can be taken whenever the 
need arises.  

  Before  starting  the  equipment,  verify  no 

person,  children  or  domestic  animals  are 
around the machine and make sure to have a 
perfect vision around the machine. 

 

It is strictly forbidden to leave the driver’s seat 
while the tractor is running. 

  Use  suitable  clothing.  Avoid  absolutely 

wearing  baggy  or  fluttery  clothing  as  they 
might get caught up in the rotating parts. 

  Before  leaving  the  tractor  it  is  compulsory  to 

stop  the  engine,  enter  the  packing  brake, 
remove the key from the command panel. 

  It  is  strictly  forbidden  to  carry  people  or 

animals on the machine and on the tractor.

work 

near 

electricity 

pylons 

is 

unavoidable,  it  is  advisable  to  ensure  that  all 
parts  of  the  machine  are  kept  at  a  minimum 
safety  distance  from  them.  Contact  the 
competent  electricity  board  if  you  have  any 
enquiries.  The  machine  is  mainly  made  from 
metal  and  consequently  any  contact  with  a 
power line or a discharge may occur between 
the  line  and  the  machine,  the  operator  might 
be involved, even with lethal consequences  

  It is strictly forbidden to work or get in contact 

with  the  machine  while  the  tractor  engine  is 
on,  before  getting  close  to  the  machine  or  to 
the  P.T.O  shaft,  stop  the  P.T.O,  stop  the 
tractor,  enter  the  packing  brake  and  remove 
the key from the command panel.

forbidden to let any part of your body get near 
the moving mechanical parts.  

 

During the machine’s operation, the unloading 
device, when activated, represents a crushing 
hazard.  

  The  round  baler  «ACTION  120»,  has  been 

manufactured  in  conformity  with  the  current 
techniques  and  guarantees  a  safe  working  if 
used  in  the  proper  way.  The  assembly  of 
pieces  of  other  brands  or  any  modifications 
can  vary  the  characteristics  of  the  machine 
and  therefore  compromise  the  security  of  the 
operations.  The  Manufacturer  consequently 
declines  any  responsibility  for  all  damages 
caused  by  not  original  parts  used  in  the 
machine. 

  Machine  must  be  utilized  exclusively  for  the 

purpose it was intended to. 

  User must inform the manufacturer in case of 

defects  or  malfunctions  of  the  safety  system, 
as well as of any supposed danger. 

 

Machine  doesn’t  have  to  work  with  the 
protections removed. 

  It is strictly forbidden to remove or tamper with 

the safety devices (including carter). 

  In  case  carter  is  removed  for  maintenance 

operations, 

make 

sure 

of 

its 

correct 

repositioning before reusing the machine. 

  Before  operating  the  machine,  check  the 

perfect  integrity  of  its  safety  systems  for 
transport  and  use;  in  case  of  malfunctions  or 
damages  to the  safety  systems,  proceed  with 
relative repair before operating the machine. 

  Pay attention to the dangerous signs indicated 

in this manual or on the machine itself. 

  The round baler can be controlled only by the 

suitable  P.T.O.  shaft  (marked  CE)  complete 
with  all  necessary  safety  systems  and 
protections secured with the proper chains. 

  Pay  attention  to  the  P.T.O.  shaft  when 

rotating.  Duly  read  also  the  use  manual 
supplied with it. 

  Pay  duly  attention  to  the  correct  assembly  of 

the P.T.O. shaft on the tractor P.T.O.. 

  Never  install  the  P.T.O.  without  having 

connected the drawbar to the tractor. 

 

Don’t  leave  the  lever  operating  the  P.T.O. 
when the tractor is off. 

  Before  starting  the  P.T.O.,  make  sure  the 

RPM  of  the  tractor  P.T.O.  correspond  to  the 
RPM forecasted for the round baler.
