3. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
3.1 Intended use
These machines are suitable to crush various siz-
es of stones, to till the soil in presence of stumps
and to mulch different sizes of shrubs and trees,
in relation
to the power available for driving
the machines and to their constructive
features (see 3.2).
The machines are hitched to a tractor or
operating machine and driven by the PTO,
by means of the PTO shaft or hydraulic
circuit.
To perform this job, the operator must be
prepared and trained and the tractor must be
hooded to protect the frame and cab. All the
structural parts of the drive
machine must be reinforced and adapted to
forestry work which requires sturdy protections
suited to protect the operator.
The tractor driver must therefore check that:
- the driver's cab has safety guaranteed regarding
rolling over and falling objects (FOPS/ROPS);
- the windows are safety windows and/or protected
by protective meshes;
- inlet air is filtered;
- the presence on site is signalled by luminous
signs.
The following are prohibited:
- use by personnel not specialised in agricultural
work and informed by reading the manual;
- use the machine for other reasons than that
intended;
- modify any functional/performance feature;
- modify or remove safety devices and/or protec-
tions
