Explanation for warning
stickers
Stop the engine and remove the keys from the ignition
Switch the engine off as soon as you leave the tractor. Remove the
key from the ignition to prevent the tractor from being started uninten-
tionally while you are in the danger zone. This especially applies when
changing the settings or while maintenance and repairs are carried
out.
Keep clear from a running machine
Fertiliser is spread over a great distance during operation. Ensure that
nobody comes within working reach of the machine during operation.
Do not come into the working area before all parts of the machine are
standing still.
The power lift must only be operated outside of the danger zone
In the area between the tractor and the machine, there is a danger of
being pinned down by the power lift. The power lift must therefore only
be engaged from beyond the danger zone. Secure the tractor with the
handbrake and wheel chocks to ensure it would not roll away.
Do not approach the machine until it has come to a complete
standstill
The rotating parts of the machine never come to an immediate halt,
they always wind down. The moving parts of a machine are not always
visible. Do not approach the machine until all moving parts have come
to a complete halt.
