Before performing any operations on the braking system, place the machine on stable ground and
chock it.
After any adjustment or repair work on the braking system, perform a braking test.

Instructions specific to AGRISEM seeders
In addition to the instructions applicable to all of machines, AGRISEM seeder users must comply with
the following instructions:
Never climb onto the machine elsewhere than on the AGRISEM walkway provided for this
purpose.
Only climb onto the machine when it is stopped.
When operations are performed on the AGRISEM seeder or during flow tests, the seeder must be
stationary and a 50-metre safety area must be enforced around it. The hydraulic system must be
depressurised (e.g. turbine stopped) and the rear window of the tractor must be shut, the tractor
switched off and the ignition keys removed.
Ensure that no one is on or near the seeder when the grain is being loaded. The AGRISEM walkway
must only be used when the seeder is stationary.
Always ensure that the entire area within the seeder's dimensions is completely clear.
Never stand under the sun wheel when it is in its transport position.
When testing the distribution flow, the user must turn the sun wheel with care to avoid any injury.
When the wheel is rotating, no-one must be within 50 metres of the machine. This means that no-one
must put their fingers into the distribution grooves unless the transmission system is completely
stopped.
When changing the transmission gear ratios, ensure that the gearing and chain are handled with the
greatest care to avoid any injury. No-one must be within 50 metres of the machine. Avoid putting
yourself in danger when changing the gearing by avoiding climbing on the machine's beams or disks,
as this could be dangerous.
Ensure that the sun wheel is protected during transport to avoid it hitting anything or injuring anyone.
Similarly, when the turbine is started up, a safety area must be enforced around the machine due to
the risk of objects or liquids being ejected (e.g. soil, oil, stones, metal, etc.).
When travelling on the public highway, always be very careful and alert. As the rear visibility is
reduced during transport, ensure that the way is clear before reversing the machine (50-metre safety
area).
The user must comply with the highway regulations applicable in his country with regard to the front
hopper.
If the tractor’s signalling equipment is not sufficient (or not sufficiently visible) ensure that you fit your
front hopper with lighting and signalling plates.
When working, a 50-metre safety area must be enforced due to the risk of
objects being ejected.
