Danger zones
IMPORTANT
Danger zones on the machine
The following significant hazards are present in the danger zones:
The machine and its work tools move during operation.
Hydraulically raised implement parts can lower unnoticed and slowly.
The tractor and machine can roll away unintentionally.
Materials or foreign objects can be ejected out of or away from the machine.
If the danger zone is not observed, it can result in serious personal injury or death.
Keep people out of the danger zone of the machine.
If people enter the danger zone:
Switch off the motors and drives immediately.Before you work in the danger zone of the machine:
Secure the tractor and machine. This also applies for quick checking work.IMPORTANT
Overhead power lines
When unfolding and folding or when folding and lifting out or raising the implement or implement parts during operation, the implement can reach the height of overhead power lines. This can cause voltage to jump over to the machine and cause lethal electrical shocks or fires. Large voltage differences develop on the ground surrounding the machine.
When unfolding and folding or when folding and raising or lifting out the implement or implement parts, maintain a sufficient distance from overhead power lines.
Never fold or unfold the implement parts close to overhead power line pylons and overhead power lines.
When the implement parts are unfolded, maintain a safe distance from overhead power lines.
If voltage has jumped over to the machine:
Stay in the cab.Do not touch any metal parts.
Warn people to stay away from the machine.
Wait for help from a professional recue team.
If people must exit the cab despite the voltage flashover, e.g. due to direct lethal danger from fire:
Jump away from the machine into a stable position.Do not touch the machine.
Move away from the machine with small steps.
