Risks due to drive shafts
2.15 Hazards from gear oil
WARNING
Gear oil may cause irritation of the skin. Leaking gear oil can be harmful for the envi-
ronment High temperatures partially prevail in the angular gear. Gear oil escaping
under pressure, in case of defective venting of the angular gear, may enter the body
through the skin and cause scalding. Inappropriate manipulations with the angular
gear may cause damage to tools or machine parts and result in serious injuries.
Protection
– Check the condition of the angular gear on a regular basis and have the damaged
parts exchanged immediately by qualified personnel.
– Works on the angular gear may be performed only by specially trained personnel.
– Before any works on the angular gear, switch off the machine! Avoid any skin con-
tact with gear oil.

– Wear protective gloves.
2.17 Risks due to drive shafts
Follow the operating manual of the shaft manufacturer.
Only shafts that meet the specifications of the manufacturer may be used.
Use the specified shaft covers appropriately in road and working settings.
The PTO shaft guard, the funnel guard and the guard on the articulated shaft must
be installed and must be in good condition.
The articulated shaft must be removed and installed only with the tractor engine
shut off, ignition key removed and the machine secured to prevent rolling.
Make sure that the articulated shaft is correctly and installed and secured.
Fasten the shaft guard to prevent movement with the shaft by attaching the safety
chain or setting the torsion lock.
When switching on the tractor PTO make sure that the direction of rotation is cor-
rect.
Never exceed the approved maximum speed of the PTO shaft for the machine.
Before switching on the tractor PTO shaft, make sure that no one is in the danger
zone of the machine.
