15 Start-up – Attaching and removing the front attachment
Risk of injury due to unexpected movement of the front attachment and moving
components!
There is an increased risk of injury when attaching and removing front attachments to or from
the machine.
• Switch off the forage harvester engine, remove the ignition key and take it with you.
• Secure the machine against rolling away with wheel chocks.
• Wait until all machine parts have come to a complete stop.
• Ensure that there is nobody between the forage harvester and front attachment.
• Ensure that nobody reaches into the clearance between the front attachment and machine.
• Before working under or on the raised front attachment, support the front attachment
securely.
• There must be nobody in the swivel range while the front attachment is being swivelled
from the transport into the working position and vice versa.
Only those front attachments may be attached which have been type tested by the
manufacturer and approved for use, see chapter Description of machine, "Technical data of the
machine".
When operating the forage harvester with a front attachment, read and follow the operating
instructions supplied with the front attachment before using it.
