ROTARY MOWER
- The operator must not wear clothing that could become
caught up in moving parts of the machine (sleeves without
fastened cuffs, belts, necklaces, bracelets, rings).
When using, servicing, repairing, moving or storing the
machine, the operator must wear safety footwear, safety
gloves plus ear protection and a dust mask if necessary.
- During use, the machine may give rise to dust, especially
if the soil is dry. You are advised to use a tractor with a cab
fitted with filters in the ventilation system. Failing this, wear
a dust mask or mask with filter to protect your respiratory
tract.
- Always check the cutting tools (knives and discs) before
using the machine.
Missing knives and worn discs must be immediately
replaced.
Only use genuine spare parts. When a disc or knife is
replaced, always check to make sure that the fastening
components (bolts, screws and nuts) comply with the
Manufacturers instructions.
- Make sure that the machine has not been damaged during
transport. Immediately notify the Manufacturer if damage is
discovered.
- Clean all deposits from the machine (rubble, tools, various
objects) as these could impair its operation or injure the
operator.
DANGER
It is absolutely forbidden to climb on to the
machine or ride on it whilst it is moving.
- Make sure that the driveline has been correctly engaged
whenever the machine is hitched.
- The machine must only be unhitched from the tractor on
flat and compact ground. Make sure that the machine is at
a standstill and stable before proceeding (use a suitable
stabilizer stand).
DANGER
Make sure that the driveline shields are undamaged.
- The shields must be immediately replaced if they are broken
or damaged in any way.
CAUTION
Make sure that the hydraulic pipes have
been correctly fitted, in compliance with
the colour code that identifies them.
Remember that if they are reversed, the
movements they activate will be in the
opposite direction to the ones controlled.
- Check the condition of the hydraulic pipes. They must be
replaced if their condition has deteriorated (every 6 years at
most).
- When the machine is not hitched to the power source, the
hydraulic pipes and driveline must be fitted into their relati-
ve supports (4-5 fig. 1).
WARNING

when the tractor engine is on and the power take-
off is engaged.
