1. SAFETY REGULATIONS
We understand your desire to get started with your FARMA Energy cutter as
quickly as possible. In order to avoid unwanted operational stoppages or, in
the worst case scenario, hazardous situations, please acquaint yourself first
with the machine's functions and its safety instructions.
For your safety, it is extremely important that you follow the instructions
presented in this instruction manual.
Follow the safety regulations relating to the correct safety equipment and work clothes.
The energy cutter may only be used when all the safety devices have been checked and
protection is in place.
Check that no unauthorised persons are within the safety distance of 45 m when using the
cutter.
Only wear clothing that is appropriate for the work. Loose-fitting clothes can entail a
considerable risk of becoming caught while working.
There is always a risk of slipping when working with the cutter. Watch out for the blade's
cutting edge and always maintain your distance from the cutter head.
When the work is complete, the cutter must always be parked folded up on the ground or the
trailer.
Always pay attention when working close to electrical cables. Maintain
a safe distance. Bear in mind the risk of unforeseen movements. If the
cutter should come into contact with a power line for any reason:
Warn people in the vicinity of the crane/cutter not to touch the
machine;
Do not touch any metal parts;
Remove the crane's arm system or cutter from live cables.
