Hitching / unhitching
There is risk of injury to persons when hitching /
un-hitching the machine to the drawbar of the
tractor.
¾
Secure the machine against rolling away.
¾
Take special care when reversing the tractor.
Never stand between tractor and machine.
¾
Only park the machine on a firm and level
surface.
Before unhitching the machine, lower it to the
ground.
Changing implements
¾
Secure the machine against unintended roll-
ing!
¾
Secure lifted frame parts, under which you will
be working, with suitable supports!
¾
Caution! Danger of injury caused by protrud-
ing parts (harrow, tines, share)!
¾
Do not use press rollers or other rotating parts
to climb onto the machine. These could start
to rotate and you could fall and be seriously
injured.
In operation
¾
Check the area around the machine (for chil-
dren!) before setting off and starting operation
of the machine. Ensure sufficient visibility.
¾
Do not remove any of the mandatory and
supplied protective devices.
¾
Stay clear of the operating range of hydrauli-
cally operated parts.
¾
Only use ascending aids and steps when
machine is at standstill. Passengers are not al-
lowed to ride on the machine during operation!
Service and maintenance
¾
Ensure that regular tests and inspections are
always carried out to schedule, as specified
in the operating instructions.
¾
Prior to performing maintenance and servicing
work, ensure that the machine is positioned
on firm, level ground and that it is properly
secured against rolling away.
¾
De-pressurise the hydraulic system and lower
or support the implement.
¾
Before cleaning the machine with high pres
-
sure cleaning equipment cover all openings,
which should stay clear of water, steam or
cleaning agents for reasons of safety or op-
eration. Do not aim the water jet directly at
electrical or electronic components, bearings
or the fan.
¾
After cleaning, check all hydraulic lines for
leaks and loose connections.
¾
Check hoses for chafing and signs of other
damage. Remedy any faults immediately!
¾
When performing welding work on the ma-
chine, disconnect the cables from computers
and other electronic components. The ground
connection must be as close as possible to
the welding point.
¾
Retighten screwed connections which had
been loosened during servicing and mainte-
nance work.
Do not wash new machines with a
steam-jet or high-pressure cleaner. The
paint takes approx. 3 months to cure
and could thus be damaged if this time
has not yet expired.
