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 coun-

try 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 opera-

tions 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 de-

scribed 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 ma-

chine 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 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) 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 falling.

 It is absolutely forbidden to climb on to the

machine.

6) Danger of lower limbs being cut off.

 Keep at a safety dis-

tance from the machine when it operates.

7) 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.

8) Hitching points

 to lift the machine.

2.3 SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTING

RULES

Carefully read the safety and accident-prevention rules be-

fore using the machine. Consult the Manufacturer if in doubt.

The Manufacturer declines all and every liability for failure to

comply  with  the  safety  and  accident-prevention  rules  de-

scribed 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

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 dis-
