It is forbidden to stand in the working area of the implement!
•
Do not stand near rotating and swivelling parts of the implement!
•
Hydraulic folding frames may only be actuated when nobody is standing in the
swivelling range.
•
There are pinch and shear points on externally powered (e.g. hydraulic) parts!
•
On implements with manual folding, always ensure that the implement is stable!
•
For implements that are driven rapidly with soil-driven tools: Danger after lifting due
to the still rotating centrifugal mass! Only approach the implement when it has come
to a standstill!
•
Before exiting the tractor, lower the implement onto the ground, switch off the motor
and remove the ignition key!
•
Standing between the tractor and the implement is forbidden unless the vehicle is
secured against rolling away using the parking brake and/or with wheel chocks!

Folded frames and lifting devices must be locked in transport position!
•
Packer catch arms must be swivelled in and locked before road transport!
•
