9. CLEANING
INJURY HAZARD TO OPERATORS AND DAMAGE TO THE STRUCTURE!
Only qualied operators that have read and fully understood the safety prescriptions
(chap. 2) can perform the operations described below. Moreover, these must
check that there are no exposed persons and animals in the dangerous area.
INJURY HAZARD!
During cleaning, use all the necessary PPE such as cut-resistant gloves and
safety shoes, and be very careful not to touch the sharp parts of the hoes with
bare hands.
The operator must carry out cleaning operations on a non-yielding, at surface,
only after having placed the Tiller in a Zero Energy State (section 2.3).
If using compressed air to clean the machine, protect yourself with suitable safety eyewear.
At the end of every work day, it is advisable to wash the Tiller with a pressure
washer, especially the following parts:
• Chassis surface;
• Hoes;
• Mast;
• Rear hood;
• Rotor.
To clean the rotor compartment, lift the rear covers.
After washing, dry with compressed air and protect the non-coated metal parts by
applying a layer of lubricant to prevent oxidation.
