F 300 L
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 - The operators must take position on their respective seats and place their feet
on the foot-rests (fig. 4.A) only when the tractor is stationary and chocked and
the machine is on the ground.
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.
8.14 - Check the efficiency of the protection devices periodically and renew them
when necessary, using only original spare parts, which can be supplied by the
Manufacturer or its authorized dealers.
8.15 - Do not lend the machine to inexpert persons: in the event of an accident,
you may be accountable.
