machine
• Ensure that no persons are present in the spreading range [A] of the machine.
• Immediately stop the machine and the tractor if persons are present in the hazard zone of the
machine.
• When coupling/decoupling the machine at the tractor or attaching/detaching the spreading unit,
make sure that no one is present in the hazard zones [B].
3.5.5 Running operation
• In the event of malfunctions, the machine is to be shut down and secured immediately. Have the
fault repaired immediately by qualified technicians.
• Do not climb on the machine while the spreader unit is running.
• Only operate the machine with the protective grids in the hopper closed. During operation, the
protective grid must neither be opened nor removed.
• Rotating machine components can cause serious injury. Make sure that body parts or clothing
never come close to rotating components.
• Do not deposit any parts (such as screws, nuts) in the hopper.
• Ejected spreading material may cause serious injury (e.g., to the eyes). For this reason, ensure
that nobody is present in the spreading range of the machine.
• If the wind speed becomes too high, spreading has to be stopped as the specified spreading
range cannot be guaranteed under such conditions.
• Do not climb on the machine or the tractor when it is situated beneath high-voltage electrical
power lines.
