3.2.2 - OPERATIONAL SAFETY
The manufacturer shall not be held responsible in case of malfunction and damage if the machine:
• is used for purposes other than those for which it was intended;
• is not manoeuvred, started and maintained according to the service instructions specified in
the following manual;
• is not periodically and constantly placed under maintenance as prescribed or non-original
spare parts are used;
• it is modified or its equipment is replaced without the written authorisation of the manufacturer,
especially when the efficiency of the safety devices has been reduced or eliminated on purpose;
• it is used outside the permitted temperature range;
3.2.3 - SAFETY WHEN USING GRASS MOWING EQUIPMENT
• Before using the machine, remove from the mowing area all stones, sticks, glass, metal
wires, bones, branches, and any other objects that could be collected and tossed around by
the flail rotor or that could damage the cutting head.
• Avoid obstacles during machine operation. Do not use the machine near steep slopes,
unstable terrain, or areas in which it could tip over.
• When the machine is being used, be very careful not to let it come into contact with hard
objects such as drain covers, manhole covers, curbs, guard rails, railway tracks etc. This
could cause the tools to break and they could be projected at very high speed.
• Whenever wire, cables, chains, or other objects become caught in the rotor, stop immediately
in order to avoid damage or dangerous situations. Stop the rotation of the cutter, switch off
the engine and remove the key. After having put on work gloves, reset the rotor with the help
of pliers or shears.
• Do not continue to use the machine if there are vibrations from the flail and/or forestry head
that could cause breakages or serious damage. Ascertain the cause of the problem and
eliminate it.
• During operation, pay attention to the electrical cables, especially if you need to pass under
them, as you could lose the radio signal. In these cases, the machine immediately
deactivates (disconnects) the commands and stops with the engine running at idle speed.
• Before raising/lowering the equipment with the raiser, make sure nobody is within ten meters
of the machine.
