The following safety points are general guidelines. Given the wide variety of possible
operating conditions, other safety risks that are not listed here may exist.
a)
Always park the diet feeder on level ground and apply the handbrake when not in
use.
b)
Do not exceed 15 km/h (10 mph) when in use/transit. Local road traffic laws will apply
when machine is in transit on public roads, on which the maximum permissible speed
is 25 km/h. Exceeding this will compromise the life and safety of major components,
such as the hitch, axle, wheels and chassis.
c)
Ensure the VFC-door is closed and all feed-out trays/elevators are in the
closed/transport position prior to using on a public road.
d)
When turning, exercise extreme caution for any potentially overtaking traffic on either
side.
e)
Do not stand on the ladder whilst the feeder is in transit.
The diet feeder should never
be used for the transport of people, animals or objects.
f)
Do not stand between the tractor and diet feeder while it is in use.
g)
Only use a PTO shaft with a properly fitted safety guard and the correct shear bolt.
h)
Always connect the PTO shaft with the shear bolt end to the machine. The standard
operating range of the PTO is 540 RPM. However, an optional operating range of
1000 RPM may be available if the machine has been built to that specification. This
will be clearly marked on the front of the machine and on the operation procedure
decal. The direction of rotation is marked on the front cover (clockwise when
viewing from rear of machine). Always use a well-maintained PTO shaft and keep
the safety covers in good condition.
i)
Ensure all trailing leads, hoses, etc., are well clear of the PTO.
j)
Never operate the PTO in “ground speed mode” or drive the PTO in reverse.
k)
Make sure all covers/guards are fitted and closed correctly. Never remove guards
when the diet feeder is connected to the tractor.
l)
Ensure that the diet feeder and the immediate area surrounding it are clear of people,
especially children, before commencing operation. Ensure that there is sufficient
visibility for the operator to observe all danger zones and that the tractor is equipped
with mirrors to enable the operator to see both sides of the machine while it is in
operation.
m)
When connecting the tractor to the diet feeder, only connect using the ring hitch/hitch
on the diet feeder to ensure safe coupling. Ensure that the hitch is connected properly
to the tractor and that all pins and clips are properly installed. Then, connect the PTO
shaft in the correct fashion. Connect the hydraulic hoses, ensuring that the functions
match the indicated valve on the tractor.
n)
When disconnecting, always ensure that a stand or jack is used to secure the diet
feeder in the park position and that the handbrake is properly applied. Before driving
