9.) When carrying out
welding
on the machine,
heat and welding splatters may cause serious
damage. If possible, have this work carried out
by skilled staff.
To prevent damage to the engine electronic
components, remove the specific compo-
nent from the combine and weld it sepa-
rately.
If the component cannot be removed, pro-
ceed as follows:
a)
Stop the engine.
b)
Disconnect the negative cable from the
battery.
c)
Disconnect the harnesses from the
engine ECU.
d)
Tie up the harnesses to the machine so
that they cannot touch the engine ECU.
e)
Connect the welder ground cable as
close as possible to the area where the
welding is to be carried out.
f)
Protect hydraulic and electric compo-
nents exposed to welding spatters.
10.) After any maintenance or repair work, collect
all tools used and store them in the toolbox on
the combine (right-hand side). Always check
the combine for loose parts, and ensure all
guards have been correctly reinstalled.
11.) Before starting the combine, make sure all
guards are fitted and that safety guards with
locks are properly secured. These guards can
be opened with a tool or with the suitable key
supplied with the ignition key. Also check
table, grain tank and sieves for loose/disas-
sembled parts.

DANGER
: Risk of shocks, squeezing or
getting trapped. Always sound the horn
three times to warn persons nearby of your
intention to start the engine.
12.) Before starting the engine, make sure no one is
carrying out service or inspection on the
machine or standing in the combine operating
range.
13.) Always keep children away from the combine.
14.) Check wheel nut torque after the first hours in
operation, as described in section “PRELIMI-
NARY SERVICE INSPECTION” (page 5-2) and
after any maintenance work involving dis-
mounting of wheels.
It is good practice to
check daily that the nuts have not loosened
or become defective in any way.

DANGER
: Risk of shocks, squeezing or
getting trapped.
15.) It is strictly forbidden to enter the grain tank

cleaning, adjusting or servicing combine and
table (grain, maize etc.), always ensure that the
engine is stopped, the brakes are applied and
all moving parts have come to a complete stop.
¥
DANGER
: Risk of squeezing.
16.) Never work under the cutting table without
securing it firmly and/or engaging the safety
stops on the crop elevator lifting rams.
