General Safety Instructions
Be careful when other people or animals are close by! Never start up the machine when people
or animals are close or on the machine or tractor. Never stand between the tractor wheels and
the machine.
Adhere to the local laws regarding children’s minimum working age with agricultural machinery.
Use of the machine. The machine must only be used for harvest of common grass and grain
crops. The machine must not be used for harvest of maize, lawn mowing in parks and cutting
of hedges, neither in vertical or in horizontal position.
Use personal protection devices. Do not wear loose clothing which may catch in any of the
moving parts. In dusty conditions a suitable mask must be used.
Take care of excessive sound level. Certain tractor/implement combinations, dependent on
operating conditions, may generate a noise level in excess of 85 dB at the operators ear, even
in a quiet cab. In these circumstances ear protection must be worn. Keep cab windows and
doors CLOSED at all times to reduce noise level.
The machine must only be coupled to a correctly sized tractor, and no other machines or
implements must be coupled. The weight of the tractor must correspond to the machine.
Observe all local laws. Be careful that the tractor is not unbalanced when coupling.
Make sure that the tractor has the correct PTO. A machine intended for 540 rpm PTO input
speed must never be coupled to a tractor with 1000 rpm PTO output speed.
Coupling of tractor and machine must be carried out as explained in the instructions. All lock
pins must have locking retainers. Observe all local laws regarding road transport.
Work in a safe way. The tractor engine must ALWAYS be stopped and the ignition key
removed before carrying out repairs, cleaning, lubricating or maintaining the machine.
