Danger areas
Moving parts pose a risk of crushing
Never reach into the crush-risk area when parts are moving or could move there.
Observe the information provided in all relevant operating instructions:
The tractor operating instructions
The device operating instructions, see Section 7 “Connecting to the Tractor“.
Danger zone between tractor and device
Anyone remaining between the tractor and the equipment can potentially suffer serious or even fatal injuries due to the
equipment moving, the tractor rolling away or carelessness:
Shut down and secure the equipment before performing any work between the tractor and the equipment, see
Section 3.7.1 "Shutting down and securing the device". This also applies to quick checks.
Protective devices keep functioning
There is an increased risk of injury if any guards protecting moving device parts are missing or damaged!
Replace damaged guards.
Keep hands, feet and garments well away from moving parts.
Before starting up the device, re-attach any guards covering device parts that were removed and then move them
into their guard position.
If you are in any doubt as to whether all guards have been fitted properly and are working as they should,
commission a specialist workshop to perform a check.

Wearing personal protective equipment is an important safety
measure. Missing or unsuitable protective equipment increases
the risk of health issues and personal injuries.

Specify and provide personal protective equipment for
the specific task at hand.
Only use personal protective equipment that is in
proper condition and offers effective protection.
Adjust personal protective equipment to the person
performing the work. (e.g. size)
Remove any unsuitable items of clothing and jewellery.
Secure operation of the machine requires the driver's full
attention.
Never wear headphones to listen to the radio or music.
