2.7 Attached devices
➢
Exercise especial caution when coupling and uncoupling the pickup to or from the forage harvester
/ combine harvester.
➢
The pickup may only be attached to the type of forage harvester / combine harvester intended for
the purpose.
➢
Work on the pickup may only be performed with the motor switched off and the ignition key re-
moved. All control levers should be in the neutral position and none of the hydraulic lines should
be pressurized.
➢
Never work under a raised pickup.
➢
The pickup may only be driven on public highways and paths with the transport trailer intended for
the purpose.
➢
The pickup must always be placed into the transport position for transport on public highways and
paths. Apply protective sheets with flashing lights and front guards onto the pickup; connect the
illumination. Repairs, maintenance and cleaning work and troubleshooting may only be performed
after the drive and motor have been switched off and the ignition key has been removed.
➢
Liquids emerging under pressure (hydraulic oil) can penetrate the skin and cause serious injuries
which are not visible from outside. Consult a hospital immediately after injuries. Danger of infection
➢
Dispose of used operating resources such as old oil in the correct fashion.
➢
The repairs of the hydraulic installation can only be performed by specialist workshops.
2.8 Drive shaft
➢
Only the drive shaft prescribed by the manufacturer may be used.
➢
The protective piping, guard cone and power take-off guard - also on the device side - must be
fitted and in good condition.
➢
Ensure the prescribed pipe coverings for the drive shaft are used in the transport and
Work position.
➢
Only install and dismantle the drive shaft with the power take-off shaft and with the motor switched
off and the ignition key removed.
➢
When using a drive shaft with an overload or freewheel coupling which is not covered by the safety
equipment on the tractor, the overload or freewheel couplings are to be installed on the device side.
➢
Always ensure the correct installation and securing of the drive shaft.
➢
Secure the drive shaft guard by securing the chain against running.
➢
Before activating the power take-off shaft, ensure that the rotation speed of the power take-off shaft
of the
forage harvester / combine harvester matches the rotation speed of the device.
➢
Before activating the power take-off shaft, ensure that no-one is in the danger area of the
➢
device.
➢
Never activate the power take-off shaft when the motor is deactivated.
➢
No-one may be permitted to remain in the area of the turning power take-off shaft or drive shaft
when working on the power take-off shaft
.
➢
Always deactivate the power take-off shaft when too great a level of angular offset means that it is
not required.
➢
Caution! Danger from running flywheel mass once the power take-off shaft has been switched off.
Do not enter the device during this time. Work may only performed on the machine once it is at a
complete standstill.
➢
Cleaning, lubrication or setting power take-off shaft driven devices or the drive shaft may only be
performed with the power take-off shaft and motor deactivated and the ignition key removed.
➢
Place uncoupled drive shafts in the bracket intended for this task.
➢
After removing the drive shaft, place on the protection cover on the power take-off stub.
➢
Rectify any damage immediately before continuing work with the device.
Please note
Follow the information of the manufacturer of the drive shaft.
(Separate operating instructions).
