Safety instructions for using the attachment
Please bear in mind that safety is the result of several factors. The loader-attachment combination is highly
powerful and improper or careless use or maintenance may cause serious personal injury or property
damage. Due to this, all operators must carefully familiarise themselves about correct use and the operator's
manuals of both the loader and the attachment before starting operation. Do not use the attachment if you
have not completely familiarised yourself with its operation and the related hazards.
DANGER
Misuse, careless use, or using an attachment that is in poor condition may
cause risk of serious injuries.
Familiarise yourself with the controls of the loader,
correct coupling procedure, and the correct way to operate the attachment at a safe
area. Study especially how to stop the equipment in a safe manner. Read all safety
precautions carefully.
Read all safety instructions carefully before handling the attachment
WARNING
When attaching an attachment to the loader,
ensure that the locking pins of the
loader's quick attach plate are in the lower position and that they have locked
the attachment to the loader.
Never lift or move an unlocked attachment.
This attachment is designed to be used by one operator at a time. Do not let others
near the danger area of the equipment when it is in use.
Always transport the attachment as low as possible to keep the centre of gravity low,
and keep the telescopic boom retracted during driving.
Risk of cutting and severing - Never leave the driver’s seat when the
attachment is running or if the auxiliary hydraulics control lever is locked on.
The blades move for a short period after the hydraulic supply has been shut off.
Wait until the blades have stopped completely before going near the attachment.
Hazard of entanglement - Rotating parts. Never leave the driver’s seat when the
attachment is running or if the auxiliary hydraulics control is locked on.
Always
keep a safe distance between persons and machinery that may start or move. Stop
the equipment following the safe stopping procedure and lower the attachment firmly
on the ground before leaving the driver’s seat, or when other persons are present at
the working area.
Impact hazard - Thrown objects.
Do not let bystanders stand closer than the safety
distance of 2 metres from the machine. Stop the attachment if others get within the
safety distance.
Severing and crushing hazard - Sharp and strong blades rotate at high speed.
Use the mower only while lowered against the ground, supported by all of its four
wheels. Running the mower in any other position may expose the blades, making
contact with them possible, and will also cause a hazard of flying debris. Make sure
that the safety valve cuts off the hydraulic oil supply to blades as intended, refer to
instructions in this manual.
Risk of crushing under the attachment or the loader boom - Lower the
attachment firmly on the ground before leaving the driver’s seat.
Make sure that
the attachment is properly supported during any maintenance or inspections. Do not
leave the driver’s seat when the loader boom is lifted. Going under a raised
attachment or loader boom is dangerous, as the boom may lower due to loss of
stability, mechanical fault, or if another person operates the controls of the loader.
