5.3 Operator’s safety – at work
The rotary rake should not be used or transported at night or when the visibility is poor as
it creates unnecessary risk of an accident involving other road user.
Do not exceed the PTO operating speed at 540 rpm.
Avoid placing of the drive assembly under sudden load whilst starting work. Always
increase the rotations gradually.
It is imperative to cut off the power supply from the tractor before reversing the tractor
with the mounted machine or before making U-turns. Manoeuvring with the powered
machine can cause damage to the drive assembly.
Do not leave the driver seat when the machine is powered.
It is the Operator’s responsibility to make sure that no one comes within 50 m distance of
the rotary rake whilst working due to the risk of ejecting object or coming into contact
with hazard zones e.g. rotating parts.
Make sure that the raking tines are set in correct position before starting work with the
implement.
Do not place your fingers or limbs in positions where they could be cut, crashed or
trapped.
Under no circumstances are you allowed to come in vicinity of the rotor or PTO shaft
whilst in move.
Before disconnecting the PTO shaft switch of the engine of the tractor, remove the
ignition key and engage the hand brake.
5.4 Operator’s safety – service and maintenance
All operations should be done observing the Basic Health and Safety rules. In case of
injury the wound should be immediately rinsed and disinfected.
Any maintenance or repair works can be done only after the engine of the tractor was
switched of and the ignition key was removed.
Use protective gloves and appropriate tools whilst performing any work by the machine.
Stop all operations immediately if any malfunctions or damages were revealed.
DO NOT WORK WITH BROKEN DOWN MACHINE.
To keep your machine safe and operable check its technical condition regularly. Pay
special attention to all separable connections. Lubricate the greasing points following the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Inspect the condition, completeness and operability of
all assemblies of the machine. Keep the correct tire pressure. Replace the damaged or
worn part with new.
Do not work under raised, unsecured machine. Use only attested, fully operable hoisting
equipment of sufficient lifting capability. It is imperative to use additional solid supports
to ensure safety in case of hoisting equipment failure. Never prop the machine with
fragile objects such as bricks or breeze-blocks.
