Original Operating Instructions 150001049_01_en 23
In case of dry usage conditions, dust, impurities and crop residue may ignite on hot parts and
the resulting fire may seriously injure or kill people.
Check and clean the machine every day before using it for the first time.
Check and clean the machine regularly during the working day.
Life-threatening electric shock from overhead lines
With tailgate open, the machine may reach the height of overhead lines. This may cause
voltage to flash over to the machine and cause a fatal electric shock or fire.
Keep a safe distance from electric overhead lines when opening the tailgate.
Never open the tailgate near pylons and overhead lines.
Keep a safe distance from electric overhead lines when the tailgate is open.
To avoid a potential electric shock caused by a voltage flashover, never exit from or climb
into the tractor under overhead lines.
Behaviour in case of voltage flashover of overhead lines
Electroconductive parts of the machine could be subject to high electrical voltage caused by
voltage flashover. A voltage drop where major voltage differences are present is created on the
ground around the machine in case of voltage flashover. Due to major voltage differences in the
ground, you could be killed by electric shocks when you make big steps, lay on the ground or
support yourself with your hands.
Do not leave the cabin.
Do not touch any metal parts.
Do not establish any conductive connection to the ground.
Warn persons: Do not approach the machine. Electrical voltage on the ground may lead to
severe electric shocks.
Wait for help from professional rescue teams. The overhead line must be switched off.
If people have to leave the cabin despite the voltage flashover, for example because there is an
imminent threat to life due to fire:
Avoid simultaneous contact with machine and ground.
Jump away from the machine. Jump into a safe standing position. Do not touch the machine
from the outside.
Move away from the machine with very small steps. In doing so, make sure that your feet
are close to one another.
