1. Safety Information
1.5 Hitching-up the
machine
There is a risk of injury when hitching/
unhitching the machine. Observe the
following:
• Secure the machine against rolling.
• Take special care when reversing the
tractor!
• There is a risk of being crushed between
the machine and the tractor!
• Park the machine on firm, level ground.
1.6 Hydraulic System
Do not connect the hydraulic lines
to the tractor until both hydraulic
systems (machine and tractor) are
depressurised.
Any hydraulic system containing
an accumulator can remain
under pressure permanently
(even after following manual
depressurisation procedures with
a tractor / implement combination).
It is therefore important to check
all lines, pipes, and screw
connections regularly for leaks
and any recognisable external
damage.
The hydraulic circuit contains
specialised fittings which should
not be tampered with under any
circumstances. Do not attempt
to modify hose routings or hose
clamping arrangements, doing
so my cause serious damage to
the machine and/or injury.
The socket and plugs for the hydraulic
connections between the tractor and the
machine should be colour-coded in order to
avoid incorrect use.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids - Escaping fluid
under pressure can penetrate the skin,
causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard
by relieving pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic lines.

1.4 No Liability for
Consequential Damage
The Centurion has been manufactured
with great care. However, problems may
still occur when it is used for the intended
purpose. These may include:
• Worn wearing parts.
• Damage caused by external factors.
• Incorrect driving speeds.
• Incorrect setting of the unit (incorrect
attachment, non-adherence to the Setting
instructions).
Therefore, it is crucial to
always check your machine
before and during operation for
correct operation and adequate
application accuracy.
Compensation claims for damage which
has not occurred to the machine is
excluded. This includes any consequential
damage resulting from incorrect operation.
