4.6 Danger areas and danger points
The danger area is the area around the machine in which people can
be caught:
• By work movements made by the machine and its tools
• By materials or foreign bodies thrown out of the machine
• By tools rising or falling unintentionally
• By unintentional rolling of the tractor and the machine
Within the machine danger area, there are danger points with perma-
nent or unexpected risks. Warning pictograms indicate these danger
points and warn against residual dangers, which cannot be eliminated
for construction reasons. Here, the special safety regulations of the
appropriate section shall be valid.
No-one may stand in the machine danger area:
• as long as the tractor engine is running with a connected PTO
shaft / hydraulic system.
• as long as the tractor and machine are not protected against
unintentional start-up and running.
The operating person may only move the machine or switch or drive
the tools from the transport position to the working position or vice-
versa when there is no-one in the machine danger area.
Danger points exist:
● Between the tractor and the machine, particularly during cou-
pling and decoupling operations.
● In the area of moving parts:
ο Rotating spreading discs with spreading vanes
ο Rotating agitator finger
ο Hydraulic actuation of the sliders
● By climbing onto the machine.
● If the machine or machine parts are lifted and not secured.
● In the working range of the spreading discs when spreading
work is in progress due to grains of fertiliser being thrown out.
