To the operator

Dear operator!
Respect the ecology. Do not throw trash away. This gesture 

of goodwill helps to protect our environment.

Products such as oil, fuel, filters, batteries and others are 

spilt over the soil and can penetrate to the underground layers, 

compromising nature. Ecological and conscious disposal of them 

should be done.

Working safely

These rotary cutters are simple to operate, requiring however 

the basic and essential cautions to their handling.

Always keep in mind that safety requires constant attention, 

observation and prudence during working, transportation, 

maintenance and storage.

Read and understand the information before making any 

adjustment or maintenance.

Have extreme caution when operating with the power take-off 

(PTO). Do not get closer during operation.

•  Security aspects must be carefully observed to avoid 

accidents.

•  This symbol is a warning used to prevent accidents.
•  The instructions under this symbol refers to the safety of the 

operator, mechanician or third parties, therefore they should 

be carefully read and observed. If the safety instructions are 

not being followed, a serious accident or even death may 

occur. 

Be careful with the environment
