Leaving the tractor
•
Switch off the engine; engage gear; apply the parking brake; remove the ignition key (if
there is one).
•

2-wheel tractor, secure it against rolling away (parking brake,
wheel chocks) and
use by unauthorised persons
.
•
Never leave the
2-wheel tractor unattended if the engine is still running.
•
Never leave the operator position at the steering shaft during driving.
•
When parking the tractor, close the petrol tap.

Safety of attached devices
Fundamental rule:
Check that the unit is safe to operate and to be used in traffic each time before putting it into op-
eration!
•
There is a risk of injury when coupling and decoupling attached devices. Be especially
careful! Connect attached devices according to the regulations.
•
The devices may only be attached or detached when the engine is switched off and the de-
vice drive is disengaged.
•
Persons must not stand between the
tractor and the attached device if the tractor is not
secured against rolling away by means of wheel chocks.
•
Connect the attached devices according to regulations and fasten them only to the pre-
scribed fittings.
•
It is not permitted to ride on the attached device of the
2-wheel tractor during work or
transport.
•
Observe permissible axle loads, overall weights and transport dimensions!
•
Check and attach transport equipment (lighting, warning devices, protective devices).
•
In the case of damage to the appliance, switch it off immediately. Remove the ignition key
if there is one. Have the damage repaired.
•
Following repair work, place the protective and safety devices in the protective position
again; only then is operation allowed again.
•
Check the protective devices and working devices for wear.
•
It is forbidden to enter or remain in the working, rotating and swivelling area! Keep a safe
distance!
•
Before starting work, remove any foreign bodies from the area to be worked.
•
Beware of foreign bodies during operation!
•
Be careful of working tools that run on! Repair work is only permitted at a complete stand-
still and with the engine switched off (spark plug cap removed).
•
Be careful when working on a slope! There is a danger of tipping when lifting the
2-
wheel tractor! Drive at a right angle to the slope if possible.
•
When driving outside the working area, disengage the device drive; the
2-wheel trac-
tor must thereby be raised into the transport position.
