CHAPTER 3 - Description of the machine

MACHINE DESCRIPTION
The whole range has been designed with criteria of excellence in performance and ease of use, together with high indeformability and structural
resistance, assured by checks on the main welded structures.
3.1
INTENDED USE
The hose reel travelling raingun is
a farm machine which is towed for moving it and is used for irrigating fi elds and plots of land after it has been put
in place.
The machine has been designed to irrigate large agricultural surfaces with raingun or spray booms.
It is normally used in farming to irrigate various types of crops.
3.2
UNAUTHORISED USE
This machine must solely be used for the explicit purposes for which it has been designed by the Manufacturer.
Any other type of use, or broadening the intended use, does not fall within the use it has been designed for by the Manufacturer, hence the
latter disclaims any liability for any ensuing damage.
The methods of utilisation specifi ed in the manual as incorrect must never be allowed under any circumstance.
Misuse of the machine and poor maintenance may involve serious hazard situations for the safety of personnel.
The actions described below
, which obviously cannot cover the entire range of potential "non permissible use" of the machine, represent however the
most "reasonably" foreseeable ones and should be deemed as strictly forbidden.
Specifi cally:
•
do not use the machine unless it has been correctly installed according to the regulations in force;
•
do not use the machine as a support, not even when it is not working (there is a serious risk of falling and damaging the machine);
•
do not climb on the machine and/or on the raingun trolley, whether stationary or moving;
•
do not place the machine on unstable terrain or terrain with a grade greater than 8.5 degrees;
•
do not use the machine unless it has been correctly positioned as described in this manual (front stabiliser leg, rear stabiliser legs and raingun
trolley);
•
do not tow the machine at speeds exceeding 10 km/h and in any case at lower speeds depending on the type of terrain (muddy, potholes, slopes,
etc.) present at the site;
•
do not move the machine if the terrain conditions are hazardous and if no measures have been taken to prevent a possible tilting hazard;
•
do not perform transversal manoeuvres with respect to the axis of the machine on sloping surfaces, since this might cause the machine to overturn;
•
do not move the machine if there are any people near the machine's manoeuvre area;
•
do not reel the hose back in if it sticks to the ground due to mud or similar. There is a risk of damaging the machine and causing hazardous
situations for people;
•
do not remove the casings protecting the machine's moving parts;
•
do not tow the machine if the suitable safety pin to stop rotation has not been properly inserted (only for MRR- R1AT15 );
•
never stand in front of the raingun, high pressure water hazard;
•
never operate the machine unless the water hose has been suitably connected to the raingun trolley and the raingun has been placed at the right
height from the ground;
•
never put your hands or other parts of your body between the machine's moving parts. Do not perform inspections, cleaning and/or maintenance
operations inside the machine before the rotating parts have come to a complete halt and the power and other supply lines have been isolated
from the machine.
•
do not use the machine outside permissible environmental conditions (see chapter 4);
•
do not use the machine under forbidden conditions and comply with the provisions of this manual indicated by danger and/or warning notes;
•
do not use the machine near aerial power lines, electrical distribution substations, etc.;
•
do not use the machine near roads, motorways or in any interference situation with public or private areas such as dwellings, the roofs or windows
of houses, etc.
•
no other use is allowed, with the exception of the provisions set out in paragraph 3.1.
Use of the machine, associated control systems and actuation equipment under conditions other than those set out in this manual is not allowed.
Any modifi cation to operation must be notifi ed to the Manufacturer and authorised by them in writing.
