1.5 Accident Prevention
In addition to the Operating Instructions, it is
important to observe the accident prevention
regulations specified by agricultural trade
associations.
1.5.1 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.
1.5.2 On the 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.
Only use appropriate aids when checking for
leaks. Repair any damage immediately.
Spurting oil can cause injuries and fires!
In case of injury, contact a doctor immediately.
The socket and plugs for the hydraulic
connections between the tractor and the
machine should be colour-coded in order to
avoid incorrect use.
1.4 Road Traffic Safety
When driving on public roads, tracks and
areas, it is important to observe the relevant
road traffic laws as well as the specific
regulations relating to this machine.
Pay attention to the permitted axle
loads, tyre carrying capacity, and
total weight in order to maintain
adequate braking and steerability.
Passengers on the machine are
strictly forbidden!
Max. road transport speed 16mph
