TRANSPORT

Check that the vehicle to be used is suitable in terms of capacity, size and any other respect stipulated in
the highway code.
Position the machine in such a way that it does not protrude beyond the profile of the vehicle, and fix it
adequately with ropes or other means so as to prevent uncontrolled movements.
8.0 REGULATIONS FOR SAFE USE AND THE PREVENTION OF
ACCIDENTS
8.1 - Read all the instructions before using the machine, especially those which relate to
safeguarding against physical injury. The Manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any damage
arising from improper use of the machine or failure to observe these instructions.
It is the duty of the user to inform employees and other personnel of the directions set out in this
document (this is a legal requirement).
8.2 - Pay attention to the danger symbols shown in this manual and on the machine.
8.3 - Adjustment, maintenance or work of any kind on the machine must be carried out only with
the engine OFF, the machine resting on the ground, and the tractor locked (parking brake
engaged).
8.4 - Couple the machine only to a tractor of adequate power (see technical bulletin referring to the
model in use), and with a lift unit which complies with standards specifically for tractors.
Adhere to the maximum stipulated weight on the axle, and the total mobile weight.
8.5 - When coupling and uncoupling the machine, pay maximum attention so as to avoid the risk of
crushing.
8.6 - It is strictly forbidden for the tractor to be driven by inexpert personnel or personnel not in
possession of a driving licence or in poor health.
8.7 - Never leave the operator position when the tractor is running.
Before leaving the tractor, lower the lift unit, stop the engine, operate the parking brake and remove
the ignition key from the control panel.
8.8 - Remember that the road-holding, steering and braking are affected by the presence of a
carried or towed machine.
8.9 - When driving on the road it is necessary to abide by the highway code of the country in
question.
8.10 - When transporting by road, with the machine lifted, put the hydraulic lift unit control lever in
the locked position.
8.11- Operators have to sit on the relevant seat, fasten the safety belt and adjust it according to their
build only with stopped and locked tractor and with the machine on ground. The handle and
footboard (fig. 4A) ease climbing. The seat is easily adjustable and should be set so as to guarantee
maximum safety and comfort.
It is strictly forbidden to travel from one work area to another or on the road with the lift unit
raised and operators on board. It is forbidden to alight if the machine is moving or not positioned
on the ground.
8.12 - The moving parts (wheels - chains - distributors etc.) are protected by appropriate guards,
and where this is not reasonably possible, sufficient space has been allowed so as to prevent the
risk of crushing. Upon no account wear loose clothing, which may become trapped in the parts
described above during operation, and in any event, pay maximum attention while working, as
moving parts of any machine are inherently dangerous.
8.13 - Do not remove the safety and protection devices which have been installed. If they are
removed for the purpose of making adjustments or carrying out maintenance, ensure that they are
refitted in their correct place.
