Appropriate use
Your Müthing mulcher uses up-to-date technology and has been built to comply with all the latest
safety regulations. Despite this, the mulcher can still present a danger to life and limb of the user
and third parties, and damage can be caused to property, the tractor and the mulcher itself if it is
used for unsuitable purposes or otherwise misused.
The mulcher can only function safely, efficiently and without any technical problems if the Instruction
Manual is closely adhered to.
Note:
Any faults that can affect the safety and operation of the mulcher must be
rectified promptly by a trained mechanic.
The mulcher has been design specifically for grass and similar light undergrowth, such as the
trimming of plant stems to within a finger width from the ground.
The mulcher is only suitable for mulching flat areas and for ditches, slopes, path edges and dikes
etc. in farming, landscape gardening or communal areas. Generally speaking a Mulcher can only be
used at the absolute minimum distance when the whole mulcher casing is parallel with the ground.
There are no other acceptable uses for a mulcher. If it is used for any other application the user is
solely responsible for any damage that may result.
Appropriate use also includes adhering closely to the manufacturer's guidelines on operation,
maintenance and repair, complying with regulations relating to inspection and servicing schedules
and maintenance and adhering to safety instructions and notes on risks plus accident
prevention regulations.
The mulcher may only be serviced or repaired by someone who has an in-depth knowledge of its
technical characteristics and is familiar with necessary safety precautions.
It is advisable to practise the separate working stages several times, so that you are familiar with the
effect that the mulcher has on the tractor, before carefully beginning the first jobs.
