Operating Instructions
1.3 Operational Safety
The machine is to be put in operation
only after instruction has been provided
by an employee of the authorised dealer
or an employee of SIMBA. The “Machine
Registration” form is to be completed and
returned to your dealer.
All protective and safety equipment, such
as removable protective equipment, must
be in place and functioning reliably before
the machine is put in use.
Check screws and bolts regularly
for tightness and retighten if
necessary.
In the event of malfunctions,
stop and secure the machine
immediately.
Ensure that any faults are
remedied immediately.
1.4 No Liability for
Consequential Damage
The DTX has been manufactured by SIMBA
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.
1.2 Use for the Intended
Purpose
The SIMBA DTX is built using the latest
technology and in accordance with the
relevant recognised safety regulations.
However, risks of injury for the operator or
third parties and impairment of the machine
or other tangible assets can arise during
use.
The machine is only to be operated when
in a technically perfect condition and for the
intended purpose, taking into consideration
safety and risks and following the
Operating Instructions. In particular, faults
that can impair safety are to be remedied
immediately.
Original parts and accessories from SIMBA
have been specially designed for this
machine. Spare parts and accessories not
supplied by us have not been tested or
authorised. Installation or use of non-original
SIMBA products may have a detrimental
effect on specific design features of the
machine and affect the safety of machine
operators and the machine itself. SIMBA
will accept no liability for damage resulting
from the use of non-original parts or
accessories .
The SIMBA DTX is designed solely as a
cultivation implement. Use for any other
purpose, e.g., as a means of transport,
will be deemed to be improper use. SIMBA
will accept no liability for damage resulting
from improper use. The risk will be borne
solely by the operator.
Use of the DTX behind high power tractors
(in excess of 40% above the maximum
recommended) can lead to high loads
and stresses which can cause long term
structural damage to the chassis and
key components. Such overloading can
compromise safety and is to be avoided.
