2.2 SAFETY DECALS
The machine has been designed and built in compliance with all
possible safety standards able to safeguard those who work with
it. Despite this, there may still be residue hazards which are sig-
nalled on the machine by decals.
These decals (pictograms) described in Fig. 3, are affixed to the
machine and indicate the various situations of insecurity and dan-
ger in a brief form.
Keep the decals clean and immediately replace them if they de-
tach or become damaged.
Consult Fig. 3, carefully read the following descriptions and memo-
rize the meanings of the safety decals.
1) Carefully read the instruction manual before beginning work.
2) Before proceeding with maintenance operations. Stop the
machine and read the instruction manual.
3) Sharp objects thrown up by the machine could represent
a danger hazard. Keep at a safety distance.
4) Danger of lower limbs being cut off. Keep at a safety dis-
tance from the machine when it operates.
5) Danger of upper limbs being cut off. Do not remove the
guards and keep well away from moving parts when the ma-
chine is operating.
6) Danger of being caught up by the driveline. Keep well away
from the driveline when the tractor engine is on. Fix the guards
in place with the relative chains.
7) Danger of falling. It is absolutely forbidden to climb on to the
machine.
8) Hitching points to lift the machine.
9) Personal protective equipment

- 18 -
by those whose psycho-physical conditions of health are not
good.
- Comply with all the accident prevention measures recommended
and described in this manual.
- When a machine is hitched to a tractor, the weights will be
distributed differently on the axles. It is therefore advisable to
add ballast at the front of the tractor in order to balance the
weight on the axles.
- When hitched to the tractor, the machine can only be operated
with the driveline complete with shields fixed by their chains.
keep well away from the spinning driveline.
- Before starting the tractor and machine, make sure that all the
safety devices for transportation and use are in perfect condi-
tions.
- Comply with the Highway Code regulations in force in your
country when travelling on public roads.
- Do not exceed the maximum tolerated weight on the tractor
axle.
- Become familiar with the controls and their functions before
beginning work.
- Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose or flapping garments,
scarves, necklaces or ties which could become caught up in
moving parts. Wear protective garments such as goggles, gloves
and protective footwear if required in the country where the
machine is used or when working on particular stony ground.
- The machine must be hitched to a tractor with an adequate
power rating.

- Any accessories used for transportation purposes must be
equipped with adequate signs and guards.
- Never ever leave the driver's seat whilst the tractor is operating.
- When driving round bends with and without the machine, take
care of the centrifugal force exercised when the center of grav-
ity is in a different position, particular when driving round bends.
- Check the rpm rate before inserting the driveline. Do not switch
the 540 rpm rate with the 1000 rpm one.
- It is absolutely forbidden to linger within the range of action of
the machine when this is operating.
- Before you get off the tractor, lower the machine hitched to the
power lift unit, stop the tractor engine, engage the parking brake
