GENERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS

Every time the tractor/machine assembly is to be
started up and used, you should ensure beforehand
that it complies with current legislation on safety at
work and Road Traffic regulations.
GENERAL
1 - In addition to the instructions contained in this
manual, legislation relating to safety instructions
and accident prevention should be complied with.
2 - Warnings affixed to the machine give indications
regarding safety measures to be observed and help
to avoid accidents.
3 - When travelling on public roads, abide by the
provisions of the Highway Code.
4 - Before starting work, it is essential that the user
familiarizes himself with the control and operating
elements of the machine and their respective func-
tions. When the machine is running, it may be too
late.
5 - The user should avoid wearing loose clothing
which may be caught up in the moving parts.
6 - We recommend using a tractor with a safety cab
or roll bar conforming to standards in force.
7 - Before starting up the machine and beginning
work, check the immediate surroundings, particu-
larly for children. Make sure that visibility is ade-
quate. Clear any persons or animals out of the
danger zone.
8 - It is strictly forbidden to transport any persons or
animals on board the machine whether it is in ope-
ration or not.
9 - The machine should only be coupled up to the
tractor at the specially provided towing points and in
accordance with applicable safety standards.
10 - Extreme care must be taken when coupling or
uncoupling the machine from the tractor.
11 - Before hitching up the machine, ensure that the
front axle of the tractor is sufficiently weighted. Bal-
last weights should be fitted to the special supports
in accordance with the instructions of the tractor
manufacturer.
12 - Do not exceed the maximum axle weight or the
gross vehicle weight rating.
13 - Do not exceed the maximum authorized dimen-
sions for using public roads.
14 - Before entering a public road, ensure that the
protective and signalling devices (lights, reflectors,
etc.) required by law are fitted and working properly.
Replace burnt out bulbs with the same types and co-
lours.
15 - All remote controls (cords, cables, rods, hoses,
etc.) must be positioned so that they cannot acciden-
tally set off any manoeuvre which may cause an ac-
cident or damage.

16 - Before entering a public road, place the ma-
chine in the transport position, in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions.
17 -. Never leave the driver's position whilst the trac-
tor is running.
18 - The speed and the method of operation must al-
ways be adapted to the land, roads and paths. Avoid
sudden changes of direction under all circums-
tances.
19 - Precision of the steering, tractor adhesion, road
holding and effectiveness of the braking mechanism
are influenced by factors such as the weight and na-
ture of the machine being towed, the front axle stage
and the state of the land or path. It is essential, the-
refore, that the appropriate care is taken for each si-
tuation.
20 - Take extra care when cornering, taking account
of the overhang, length, height and weight of the
machine or trailer being towed.
21 - Before using the machine, ensure that all pro-
tective devices are fitted and in good condition. Da-
maged protectors should be replaced immediately.
22 - Before using the machine, check that nuts and
screws are tight, particularly those for attaching
tools (discs, flickers, deflectors, etc.). Tighten if neces-
sary.
23 - Do not stand in the operating area of the ma-
chine.
24 - Caution! Be aware of any crushing and shea-
ring zones on remote-controlled and particularly hy-
draulically-controlled parts.
25 - Before climbing down from the tractor, or before
any operation on the machine, turn off the engine,
remove the key from the ignition and wait until all
moving parts have come to a standstill.
26 - Do not stand between the tractor and the ma-
chine until the handbrake has been applied and/or
the wheels have been wedged.
27 -. Before any operation on the machine, ensure
that it
cannot be started up accidentally.
28 - Do not use the lifting ring to lift the machine
when it is loaded.
PROPER USE OF THE MACHINE
The Seed drill must only be used for tasks for which it
has been designed.
The manufacturer will not be liable for any damage
caused by using the machine for applications other
than those specified by the manufacturer.
Using the machine for purposes other than those ori-
ginally intended will be done so entirely at the user's
risk.
Risk of ac- Operating
cident tip
Proper use of the machine also implies:
- complying with instructions on use, care and main-
tenance provided by the manufacturer;
- using only original or manufacturer recommended
spare parts, equipment and accessories.
The Seed drill must only be operated, maintained
and repaired by competent persons, familiar with
the specifications and methods of operation of the
machine. These persons must also be informed of
the dangers to which they may be exposed.
The user must strictly abide by current legislation re-
garding:
- accident prevention;
- safety at work (Health and Safety Regulations);
- transport on public roads (Road Traffic Regula-
tions).
Strict compliance with warnings affixed to the ma-
chine is obligatory.
The owner of the equipment shall become liable for
any damage resulting from alterations made to the
machine by the user or any other person, without the
prior written consent of the manufacturer.
- The noise emission value measured at the driving
position with the cab closed (level of acoustic pres-
sure) is 75 dB(A).
Measuring device: SL 401
Position of the microphone placed in accordance
with Paragraph B 2.6 of Appendix B of NF EN ISO
4254-1.
This level of acoustic pressure essentially depends on
the tractor used.
HITCHING
1 - When hitching or unhitching the machine from
the tractor, place the control lever of the hydraulic lift
in such a position that the lifting mechanism cannot
be activated accidentally.
2 - When hitching the machine to the three-point lif-
ting mechanism of the tractor, ensure that the dia-
meters of the pins or gudgeons correspond to the
diameter of the tractor ball joints.
3 - Caution! In the three-point lifting zone, there
may be a danger of crushing and shearing.
4 - Do not stand between the tractor and the ma-
chine whilst operating the external lift control lever.
5 - When in transport, lifting mechanism stabilizer
bars must be fitted to the machine to avoid floating
and side movement.
6 - When transporting the machine in the raised po-
sition, lock the lift control lever.
7 - Never unhitch the machine when the hopper is fil-
led.
