General safety notes

2.1 SAFETY NOTES

The user must inform his personnel about the risks deriving from accidents, about the safety devices installed to safeguard the
operator and about the general accident-preventing regulations established by the Directives and by the laws in force in the
country where the machine is used.
It is therefore essential for operators to carefully read this manual, particularly the safety notes, and to pay great attention to
operations which could be particularly hazardous.
The Manufacturer declines all and every liability for failure to comply with the safety and prevention regulations given in
this manual.
Pay attention to this symbol when it appears in the manual. It indicates a possible danger situation.
There are three danger levels:
▪
DANGER : This is the maximum level danger signal and warns that unless the described operations are carried out correctly,
they will cause serious injuries, death or long term health hazards.
▪
WARNING : The «WARNING» signal warns that unless the described operations are carried out correctly, they could cause
serious injuries, death or long term health hazards.
▪
CAUTION : This sign warns that unless the described operations are carried out correctly, they could cause damage to the
machine and/or persons.

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 signalled 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 danger in a brief form. Keep the decals
clean and immediately replace them if they detach or become damaged. Consult Fig. 3, carefully read the following descriptions
and memorize 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. 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.
4. Sharp objects thrown up by the machine could represent a danger hazard. Keep at a safety distance.
5. Danger of lower limbs being cut off. Keep at a safety distance from the machine when it operates.
6. Danger of upper limbs being cut off. Do not remove the guards and keep well away from moving parts when the machine
is operating.
7. Hitching points to lift the machine.
8. Personal protective equipment to safeguard against noise.

2.3 SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTING RULES

Carefully read the safety and accident-prevention rules before using the machine. Consult the Manufacturer if in doubt. The Ma-
nufacturer declines all and every liability for failure to comply with the safety and accident-prevention rules described below.
Do not touch moving parts.
▪
Adjustments or work on the machine must only be carried out when the tractor engine is off and the tractor blocked.
▪
It is absolutely forbidden to transport persons or animals on the steerage hoe.
▪
It is absolutely forbidden to operate the tractor or have it operated with the machine hitched by persons who are not in
possession of an adequate driving license, by inexpert persons or 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.
