D) Act on the switch (8) to activate the vibrating head (6) which, by
transmitting the vibration to the clamped wooden organ, causes the
hanging fruit fall to the ground.
NOTE
The duration of vibration may vary depending on the genotype, the size of
the woody organ and the fruit load on the tree.
Usually, the effect is considered to be over after about 8-12 seconds of
vibration. Insisting on vibration could unnecessarily damage tree canopy
organs (e.g. defoliation).

DANGER
Fruit picking, in the absence of the optional reverse umbrella, must be carried
out by authorized personnel once the machine has completed its vibration on
the tree, by moving it away from the area near the processed tree.
E) Once the vibration is over, ONLY when the vibrating head is completely
stopped, the jaws can be opened completely by acting on the special
control and then retracting the telescopic arm.
