The engagement of the safety lock must be carried out by
two persons, one seated in driving position to check the
movements of the machine and the other standing on the
ground to engage the lock correctly.

It is important to remember that in operating conditions the
safety lock (1) must be positioned against the arm and kept
in this position by means of the safety pin (2).

inder rod.
