Safety
Guidelines and instructions with which you must comply, are summarized in this section.
Personnel who install, operate and maintain these implements, must have read and un-
derstood this operating manual.
2.1
Intended use
The front power system must only be mounted on type John Deere 1026 R tractors. The
front power system is used for accommodating small to medium-sized implements, such
as snow blades, sweepers, etc. and should only be connected and operated with such
implements. Please note that you must avoid overloading the front axle, even in heavy-
duty implementation (e.g. snow removal). The permissible axle load is specified in the
appropriate documentation provided by the tractor manufacturer.
The front PTO shaft extends the mid-mount PTO shaft of the tractor to the front. It is used
to power sweepers, or similar implements that are driven with PTO shafts.
Attention!
The front power system should not be charged with downward pressure via
the tractor's hydraulic system! For implements that contact the ground or
roll on the ground in operation, the tractor hydraulic system must be
switched to the float setting! Strictly comply with the manufacturer's rec-
ommendation!
The front power system is not suitable for lifting people or for use as a work
platform!
In addition, compliance with the service and maintenance guidelines is a component of
intended use. Moreover intended use includes exclusive use of original spare parts and
supplemental equipment, or use of such parts and equipment that meet the technical re-
quirements specified by the manufacturer
.
All other uses are excluded.
Non-intended use causes:
Health hazards for the operator or for third parties
Damage to the tractor and the implements
Immediate invalidation of the guarantee
Environmental damage
To avoid accidents and to reduce the risk of accidents, the relevant accident prevention
regulations and the other generally acknowledged occupational health and safety and
road traffic regulations apply without limitation.
Changes to the front power system and/or the associated accessories invalidate the
guarantee and exclude any liability on the part of the manufacturer for damage due to the
changes.
