3 SAFETY
For safety in general and in view of accident prevention the following points must be strictly observed.
General instructions
1. Read this manual before you put the system into operation and strictly adhere to all safety and operating
instructions.
2. Acquaint yourself with all controls and functions of the machine before you start to work with it. It’s too late
when the system is already running!
3. The warning and indication stickers on the machine give very important instructions for safe operation.
Observing them is essential to your own personal safety! If stickers are missing they have to be replaced.
4. Never put the machine into operation unless all guards and safety devices are completely mounted in their
proper working position!
5. Do not handle the PE-pipe near the machine or the machine itself during pull-off and retraction .
6. Never set or service any part while the system is running (except for speed adjustments).
7. Keep a safe distance from the sprinkler while it is operating.
8. Ensure that the sprinkler’s water jet does not hit public roads (accident hazard).
9. Keep a safe operating distance from electric power lines (depending on nozzle size and water jet). Consult
your local power supply company regarding safe distances that have to be allowed.
10. When transporting (repositioning) the RAINSTAR – especially when a boom cart is involved - make sure that
the safety distance from electrical power lines is strictly observed (height of machine, clearance of power line).
11. When you transport the RAINSTAR on public roads always observe the applicable traffic regulations (max.
speed, max. transport width, reflectors etc.)
12. When you transport the RAINSTAR or load it on a trailer, always take into account that remaining water in the
PE-pipe shifts the machine’s centre of gravity upward. Be careful in curves and on sloping terrain!
13. Always ensure that locks and stops are secured according to the machine’s general conditions of transport.
14. Maximum permissible speed: 10 km/h .
