The operator must not leave the tractor seat until the machine has been
lowered to the ground, the tractor engine switched off, the handbrake
applied and the ignition key removed.
Never reverse or turn unless the machine is in the raised position.
All guards, covers, warning transfers and safety devices must be
correctly fitted and operable at all times.
Inspect the machine on a regular basis and replace damaged or worn
parts as necessary.
Never operate the machine in a state of disrepair.
Only transport the machine at a speed suitable to the prevailing
conditions. Be aware of the weight and overall length of the machine at
all times.
Before working on the machine, all free moving parts should be locked
to prevent them moving.
Regularly lubricate the machine as per the operator’s handbook and
check the tightness of all nuts and bolts.
Always use mechanical or additional help when lifting heavy parts.
Regularly check hydraulic hoses for chafing or damage and replace as
necessary.
Care must be taken when carrying out any work on the hydraulic
system. Even when stopped and disconnected from the tractor, residual
pressure will exist within the hydraulic system. Therefore, before
commencing any work on the hydraulics ensure that the system is free
of residual pressure by carrying out the ‘pressure dump’ procedure
outlined within this handbook.
Before transporting the machine on a public road, set the hydraulic
levelling to its lowest position, fully raise the shares, lock the cross
conveyor into the transport position, set the drawbar and steering to the
straight-ahead position and switch off the control box to avoid
inadvertently operating any machine services. Finally, ensure road
lights are clean and in good working order.
Safety is the responsibility of the persons working with this
machine. Think "safety" at all times. Read and remember the
contents of this handbook.
