3.3 Safety Instructions and Accident Prevention Regulations

1 Please follow all generally applicable safety and accident prevention regulations in

addition to the safety instructions contained in these operating instructions!

2 The attached warning and safety signs provide important information for safe operation.

Pay attention to these for your own safety!

3 When using public roads, make sure to observe the applicable traffic regulations!

4 Make sure that you are familiar with all equipment and controls as well as with their

functions before you begin working with the machine. It is too late to learn this when you

are using the machine for work!

5 The user should wear close fitting clothes. Avoid wearing loose or baggy clothing.

6 Keep the machine clean to prevent the danger of fire!

7 Before starting or moving the machine, make certain that nobody is in the vicinity of the

machine! (Watch for children!) Make sure that you have a clear view!

8 Carrying passengers during operation and transport on the working implement is not

permitted.

9 Couple implements correctly! Attach and secure implements to specified devices only!

10 When attaching or detaching implements, place the supporting devices in the correct

positions!

11 Special care is required when coupling and uncoupling the maize header onto or from the

forage harvester.

12 Always attach ballast weights properly to the fixing points provided!

13 Observe permitted axle loads, gross weight and transport dimensions!

14 Check and install transport equipment, such as lighting, warning devices and protective

equipment!

15 Actuating mechanisms (ropes, chains, linkage, etc.) for remotely operated devices must

be designed in such a way that, in whatever transport and working position, they cannot

trigger accidental movements.

16 Ensure that the maize header is in the prescribed condition for on-road travel and lock it

in place in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions!

17 Never leave the driver's seat when the vehicle is moving!

18 Always drive at the correct speed for the prevailing driving conditions! Avoid sudden

changes in direction when travelling uphill or downhill or across a gradient!

19 Hitched implements and ballast weights affect the driving, steering and braking response

of the machine. Make sure that you are able to brake and steer the machine as required!

20 Take into account the extension radius and/or inertia of an implement when turning

corners!

21 Take the maize header into operation only after all safety devices have been attached

and are in their proper positions!

22 Keep safety equipment in good condition. Replace missing or damaged parts.

23 Keep clear of the working range of the machine at all times!

24 Do not stand within the turning and swivel range of the implement!

25 Never operate the hydraulic folding frames if anyone is inside the swivel range!

Safety

16

26 Parts operated by external power (e.g. hydraulically) can cause crushing and shearing

injuries!

27 Before leaving the forage harvester, lower the maize header onto the ground, apply the

parking brake, switch off the engine and remove the ignition key!

28 There must be nobody between the forage harvester and the maize header without the

vehicle being secured against rolling away with the parking brake and wheel chocks!

29 Observe all additional information related to safety in the operating instructions for the

forage harvester.

3.4 Attached devices

1 Special care is required when coupling and uncoupling the maize header onto or from the

forage harvester!

2 The maize header must only be attached to the forage harvester for which it is intended.

3 Do not work on the maize header until the engine has been stopped and the ignition key

has been removed. All operating levers should be in the neutral position and no hydraulic

lines should be under pressure.

4 Only perform jobs under the maize header when it is raised if it is securely supported.

5On public highways, the maize header (EasyCollect 6000 FP) must always be in

transport position. Attach guard cloths together with flashing lights and front guard to the

maize header and connect the lighting.

3.5 PTO Operation

1 Use only PTO shafts specified by the manufacturer!

2 The guard tube and guard cone of the PTO shaft and the PTO guard must be attached

and in good working condition (on the implement side, too)!

3 Make sure that the required tube covers are in place for PTO shafts in transport and

working position!

4 Before installing or detaching PTO shafts, disengage the PTO, switch off the engine and

remove the ignition key!

5 When using PTO shafts with an overload safety or free-running coupling which are not

shielded by the guard on the tractor, mount the overload safety or free-running coupling

on the implement side!

6 Always make sure that the PTO shaft is properly installed and secured!

7 Attach chains to prevent the PTO shaft guard from rotating with the shaft!

8 Before switching on the PTO, make sure that the selected PTO speed of the forage

harvester matches the permissible speed of the implement!

9 Before switching on the PTO shaft make sure that no person is in the danger zone of the

device!

10 Never switch on the PTO if the engine is switched off!

11 No one should be in the vicinity of the rotating PTO or PTO shaft when the PTO is in use.

12 Always switch off the PTO shaft when the angle is too large or the PTO shaft is not

required!

13 Caution! After disengaging the PTO danger due to the flywheel running on! Keep away

from the implement during this time. Do not work on the machine until it has come to a

standstill.

14 Cleaning, lubricating or adjusting PTO driven implements or the PTO shaft only with PTO

disengaged, engine switched off and ignition key withdrawn!

15 Place the disconnected PTO shaft onto the support provided!

16 After detaching the PTO shaft, attach the protective cover to the PTO end!

17 If damage occurs, correct this immediately before using the implement!

3.6 Hydraulic system

1 The hydraulic system is pressurised!

2 When connecting hydraulic cylinders and motors, make sure the hydraulic hoses are

connected as specified!

3 When connecting the hydraulic hoses to the forage harvester hydraulics, take care that

the hydraulic system is depressurised both on the tractor side and on the device side!

4 When functions are connected hydraulically between the forage harvester and the front

attachment, coupling sleeves and plugs should be identified so that faulty operation is

excluded! If the connectors are interchanged, the functions will be reversed (e.g.

raising/lowering) - Risk of accident!

5 Check the hydraulic hose lines at regular intervals and replace them if damaged or worn!

The new hoses must fulfil the technical requirements set by the manufacturer of the

implement!

6 When searching for leaks, use suitable aids to avoid the risk of injury!

7 Liquids escaping under high pressure (hydraulic oil) can penetrate the skin and cause

serious injury! Seek medical help immediately should injuries occur! Meaning of the icons

8 Before working on the hydraulic system, depressurise the system and switch off the

engine!

2Regularly check that nuts and bolts are properly seated and tighten if necessary!

3When performing maintenance work with the machine raised, always secure it with

suitable supporting elements!

4Oils, greases and filters must be disposed of correctly!

5Always disconnect the power supply before working on the electrical system!

6If protective devices and guards are subject to wear, check them regularly and replace

them in good time!
