13.1.2 Safety
As the operator, you are responsible for the safe operation and maintenance of the Active Depth Con-
trol on your Amity sugar beet harvester. You and anyone else who will operate, maintain, or work
around the harvester while in it
’
s use should be familiar with the operation, maintenance, and safety
information in this manual.
The most important element of safety for this equipment is a safe operator. Any person who has not
read and understood all the operation and safety instruction of not only the ADC system, but also the
entire harvester, is not qualified to operate this system.
NOTE:
It is very important to understand that as an automated system, the system will move the har-
vester without direct input from the operator. Anytime there is hydraulic oil supplied to the harvester
ADC
’
s valve bank, the harvester has the potential to move.
For the safe operation and maintenance of the ADC system, follow these rules:
1.
Read and understand this operator manual on how the system works, and what all the controls
are and do.
2.
Only supply hydraulic oil to the ADC valve when you are ready and intend to use the system. Make
sure all people and objects are outside the danger zone of the harvester before supplying oil. Shut
off the oil supply anytime the system will not be in use.
3.
Note that anytime oil is supplied to the valve, any control used on the VT creates potential for the
harvester to move.
4.
Be on high alert whenever the system is in
“
Auto
”
mode. The harvester will automatically move
based on feedback from the depth wands, even without action from the operator.
5.
Deactivate the joystick anytime it is not in use to prevent any chance of unintentional operation
by accidentally bumping it.
6.
Before ever exiting the tractor, turn off the PTO, stop the flow of hydraulic oil to the harvester,
and turn off the tractor.
7.
Follow all other safety instructions noted in the harvesters operator
’
s manual.
8.
“
Auto
”
mode cannot be activated without the PTO running, but all other functions will work.
