Environmental Protection; Maintenance, Storage And Transport - ST MP 84 Serie Guía Rápida De Uso

- Sharp changes of direction.
- Inadequate braking.
- Type of machine unsuitable for its task.
- Lack of awareness of the effect of ground conditions.
- Using the machine for towing.
• Look out for traffic when using the machine near the road.
• Release the cutting means, stop the engine and remove
the ignition key, making sure that all moving parts have
come to a complete stop:
- When transporting the machine;
- Whenever the machine is left unattended;
- Before removing the blockages or unclogging the
discharge conveyor;
- Before checking, cleaning or working on the machine;
- After hitting a foreign object. Check the machine for
damage and, if necessary, repair it before using it again;
- If the machine starts to vibrate abnormally: inspect for
possible damage; check for and tighten any loose parts;
have all checks, repair works and replacements carried
out by an Authorised Service Centre.
• Always keep hands and feet away from the cutting means,
when starting and when using the machine.
• Attention: the cutting means will continue to rotate for
a few seconds after disengagement or after you have
switched off the motor.
• Pay attention to cutting means assembly with more than
one cutting mean, as rotating cutting means can trigger
the rotation of the others.
• Keep away from the discharge opening.
• Do not touch the parts of the engine that heat up during
operation. Risk of burns.
• To avoid the risk of fire, do not leave the machine standing
in high grass with the engine running.
If something breaks or an accident occurs
during work, turn off the motor immediately and
move the machine away to prevent further
damage; if an accident occurs with injuries or
third parties are injured, carry out the first aid
measures most suitable for the situation
immediately and contact the medical authorities
for any necessary health care. Carefully remove
any debris which could cause damage or injury
to persons or animals if ignored.

1.4. MAINTENANCE, STORAGE AND TRANSPORT

Ensure regular maintenance and correct storage to maintain
machine safety and high performance levels.
• Never use the machine with worn or damaged parts. Faulty
or worn-out parts must always be replaced and never
repaired. Only use original spare parts.
• Be careful during adjustment of the machine to prevent
entrapment of the fingers between moving parts of the
cutting means and fixed parts of the machine.
• To reduce the risk of fire, check for oil and/or fuel leaks
on a regular basis.
The noise and vibration levels shown in these
instructions are the maximum levels for use of
the machine. The use of an unbalanced cutting
element, the excessive speed of movement, or
lack of maintenance have a significant influence
on noise emissions and vibrations. Consequently,
it is necessary to take preventive steps to
eliminate possible damage due to high levels
of noise and stress from vibration; maintain the
machine well, wear ear protection devices, and
take breaks whilst working.
• Do not store the machine with fuel in the tank in an area
where fuel vapours could reach a naked light, a spark or
a strong heat source.
• To reduce fire risks, do not leave containers with debris
inside a room.

1.5. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

• Scrupulously comply with local regulations for the disposal
of packaging, deteriorated parts or any elements with
a strong environmental impact; this waste must not be
disposed of with regular waste, but must be separated and
taken to collection centres, which will recycle the materials.
• Comply with local regulations for the disposal of waste
materials.
• When the machine is withdrawn from service, do not
dispose of it in the environment, but take it to a waste
disposal facility in accordance with the local regulations
in force.
Separate waste collection of the products and
packaging used allows the materials to be recycled
and reused. Reuse of recycled materials help to
prevent environmental pollution and reduces the
demand for raw materials.
