5 Operation
5.1 Safe operation / functioning
Do not operate the unit without a vehicle (tractor). Follow the operating manual of the
relevant tractor.
Running over persons
Death or severe injury
Never allow anybody to get into or stay in the danger zone
Ensure that nobody is in the danger zone of the unit (see section 3.8).
If any persons get into the danger zone of the unit, stop the tractor at once.
5.2 Work flows
Resistance of the soil is too great
Blade or other component can break
Only let the blade into the ground while in motion
The LUV may only be lowered into the ground in the row while in motion.
Next, turn on the oil supply of the LUV.
5.3 Operating information
5.3.1 Oil
The LUV unit and all the hydraulic components are not suitable for use with bio-oil!
5.3.2 Soil
The LUV unit can be used in all the usual types of soil, but less good working results
can be expected in very stony soil, unless it is pre-treated. Here we recommend that
the soil should be prepared beforehand with a suitable device. Around 5-10 cm
should always be ploughed up to achieve the best results. It is easier to distinguish
weeds as a result and there is less formation of islands of grass.
