Machine Description
1.1
Intended Usage
1.1.1
Allowed Uses
The machine has been designed for use in the agricultural sector only, for the topping of grass pasture land
after grazing, or for weed and thistle control on agricultural land.
When the rotary mower works it guarantees the required level of safety even in the presence of an
insignificant malfunction of its components or hazardous operating conditions, however, always within the
permitted uses.
The rotary mower must not be used for purposes other than those described in this manual.
1.1.2
Improper Uses
The machine is not intended for grass mowing, or for the cutting of set-aside, or brush/woodland clearance.
DANGER!
Under no circumstances should the machine be used for any purpose other than the
permitted uses (given above) or in any field other than the agricultural field. More specifically, it
must not be used for: Shredding woody stalked plants, grinding wood, or for similar applications
on hard materials, or working with blades in contact with the ground. Do not use the machine on
stony ground as this would mean the blades would come into contact with stones, with the
extremely hazardous result of stones being flung off at great speed. In addition, the blades
would fail mechanically straight away, with just as serious consequences. Failure to comply with
the instructions given shall result in serious safety hazards. If in any doubt, contact the
manufacturer.
WARNING!
Failure to follow these rules may expose people to the danger of serious harm or even
death.
The P.T.O must be run at the required speed (540 rpm).
DANGER!
Do not make sharp turns while the machine is working, making sure you always lift it when
changing direction and reversing.
