Safety

Put a fire extinguisher in place
Carry a fire extinguisher at all times, especially when operating with
flammable materials. This should be a multi-purpose ABC rated fire
extinguisher with a 5 kg capacity, approved by the appropriate
authority. Mount this onto the tractor and/or onto the machine. Fire
could damage the machine and cause injury.
Use active carbon filters
Harmful gases and mists could enter the air duct of the tractor while it
is in use.
An active carbon filter should therefore be mounted in the air
ventilation of the tractor.
Harmful materials could cause serious personal injury.
Ensure the tractor is safe when leaving it
Never leave the tractor without:
•
switching off the PTO shaft,
•
switching off the electric control system,
•
releasing the pressure from the hydraulic system,
•
switching off the tractor engine,
•
removing the key from the ignition,
•
engaging the handbrake of the tractor.
Leaving the tractor unsecured could create dangerous situations that
could lead to injury.
Responding to problems
In the event of operational problems you should:
•
stop immediately,
•
switch the tractor and machine off,
•
attend to the problem or call for expert assistance.
Never use the tractor in a closed area
The tractor must never be used in a closed area. Exhaust fumes may
accumulate without being noticed. Exhaust fumes may cause serious
or lethal injuries.
