5. General precautions for use

•
The operator is directly accountable for the machine’s safe operation.
•
Read this manual carefully before proceeding with installation, start-up, use or any servicing
of the machine.
•
The aim of this handbook is to familiarise the operator, through the figures and explanations,
with the basic rules and criteria to follow during machine use and maintenance.
The following procedures are essential to guarantee safe operation:
•
Check that the machine has not suffered any damage during transportation and if it has,
advise the manufacturer or area agent straight away.
•
Make sure the machine is only used by authorised adults with appropriate training.
•
Make sure the prime mover due to be used has all the dead-man’s controls fitted and that
they are in perfect working order.
•
Ensure all non-members of staff are kept clear of the machine when it is in use (safety
distance of at least 10 metres). Cordon off the work area. This operation has to be done by
the operator.
•
Stop working if anyone or any animals should enter the work area.
•
Clean the machine regularly, removing all foreign matter which could impair operation or
cause injury to the operator.
•
Before using the machine, make sure all the safety devices are correctly in place and in
good condition; if any broken devices are found, replace them immediately.
•
Make sure all the hoses and fittings are properly attached.
•
Do not carry out any maintenance work until you have read the instruction manual, and
always remove the ignition key from the prime mover before starting.
•
Any repairs needed must be carried out solely by authorised personnel using original spare
parts. If this rule is not applied, the user could be exposed to serious risks.
•
All inspections of the hoses and fittings must be carried out using suitable personal
protection equipment (goggles, gloves and clothing to protect against contact with the skin).
•
Do not leave the machine installed on the p.m. when the p.m. is unattended in the work
area.
•
Do not wear anything which might get caught in the moving parts, such as unsuitable
clothing, shoes, shirts etc. You are recommended to wear garments approved for accident-
prevent purposes, e.g. helmets, non-slip shoes, headphones, and safety goggles and gloves.
Check with your employer as to the safety regulations in force and the accident-prevention
devices required.
•
Do not wear rings, bracelets, necklaces, watches, or scarves.
•
If you have long hair, keep it tied back.
