Safety precautions
Warning!
The following instructions cannot completely safeguard anyone operating the machine from all dangers that might occur. They
should be combined with common sense and experience, which are totally indispensable measures for the prevention of accidents.
• The operator must ensure that the machine is always maintained clean from any extraneous materials, debris, tools, oil etc.
• The machine should be cleaned after each use. During this operation the machine should be stopped and in a stable position
with the ignition keys of the tractor taken out so as to prevent any possibility of anyone causing it to move.
• When compressed air or water is used for cleaning purposes protective goggles and mask must be worn and other person or
animals must be kept well away from the vicinity of the machine.
• Do not use flammable liquids.
• At the end of the cleaning session a check should be made for wear and tear, damaged or badly fixed parts.
• Check the state of wear on flexible tubing.
• The manual should always be at hand so that it may be consulted to check the correct operative cycle every time a doubt may
arise.
• If this manual is lost or damaged, you will need to ask OMARV for a replacement copy.
• Structural damage, improper modifications, alterations or repairs can change the capacity of production of the machine, the
-
reby cancelling this certification.
• Any modification should be made exclusively by technicians of the OMARV or the authorised sales network.
• This machine is usually fitted on the rear of the tractor. It will therefore be necessary to add extra weight to the front of the
tractor to prevent the risk of tipping over.
• Always drive slowly especially on irregular ground to prevent loss of balance.On turning take sufficient care bearing in mind the
load and movement of the machine on the axle of the tractor.
• Ensure that the guards of the power drive are in place and provide for spares in case of damage.
• Never transport the machine with the rotor blade in motion.
• These machines may, in certain conditions, throw shredded material and other object gathered from the ground for great di
-
stances, which can cause serious injury or even death to anyone in the projectile path of the machine. It will therefore be neces
-
sary to block the shredding operation if there are people around either moving or static within 100 meters of the machine.
• When the height of the vegetation to be mown prevents the visibility of foreign objects, the mowing should first be made at
intermediate height in order to allow for an inspection of the ground and the removal of foreign object allowing for a further cut
at the desired height.
• This pre-emptive action will, moreover, notably reduce wear and tear on the machine.
• Avoid the blades coming into contact with bulky objects.
• Do not climb onto the tractor or the machine while they moving. Avoid contract with tyres while they are in motion. Climb on
or off the tractor only when it is completely still and the ignition key is taken out. On no account should anyone climb onto the
machine itself.
• Do not use the machine if there is an oil leak present.
• Do not search out a leak with bare hands. Use protective gloves and a piece of material or cardboard. Oil under pressure can
penetrate under the skin and cause gangrene. In the event of this happening seek urgent specialist medical attention.
• Carefully read and respect the manufacturer’s instructions when using oil, solvent, detergents or other chemical substances.
