3.1 Purpose of Use
The KRONE maize header EasyCollect 600-3 FP, EasyCollect 750-3 FP and EasyCollect
900-3 FP is a header with adapter frame designed exclusively to be attached to CLAAS forage
harvesters of the Jaguar series 8xx and 9xx.
The KRONE maize header EasyCollect 600-3 FP, EasyCollect 750-3 FP, EasyCollect 900-3 FP
is used for harvesting maize and other thick-stalked forage plants independently of rows.
When, e.g. harvesting Sudan grass, modifications to the maize header are required. Details on
the modification options are available from your local specialised dealer.
Ver
3.2 Intended use
This machine is a maize header and is used to cut crops and to feed them to the forage
harvester.
The crops designated for the intended use of this machine are stem-type crops such as maize
plants.
The machine is designed exclusively for use in agriculture and may only be used when
– all safety devices are available according to the operating instructions and are in the
protective position.
– all safety instructions of the operating instructions have been observed and complied with,
both in chapter “Basic safety instructions” and directly in the chapters of the operating
instructions.
The machine may be used only by people who satisfy the personnel qualification requirements
designated by the machine manufacturer.
These operating instructions are part of the machine and must therefore be at hand when the
machine is in use. The machine may be operated only when the operator has received training
and in compliance with these operating instructions.
If the machine is used for applications which are not described in these operating instructions,
this may result in serious injuries or death and damage to the machine and other property.
Unauthorised modifications to the machine may affect the properties of the machine or disrupt
the proper operation. For this reason, unauthorised modifications shall exclude any liability of
the manufacturer for consequential damage.
The intended use shall also include the adherence to the operating, maintenance and repair
conditions set by the manufacturer.
Safety
15
3.3 Reasonably foreseeable misuse
Any use beyond the intended use, see chapter Safety, “Intended use”, is regarded as improper
use and is therefore misuse according to the Machinery Directive. The manufacturer is not liable
for damage resulting from this, the user alone bears the risk.
Such misuse is for example:
– Processing of crops which are outside the intended use of the machine, see chapter Safety,
“Intended use”
– Transportation of people
– Transportation of goods
– Exceedance of the permitted technical total weight of the carrier vehicle
– Non-compliance with the safety labels on the machine and safety notes in the operating
instructions
– Performing troubleshooting, setting, cleaning, repair and maintenance work contrary to the
information in the operating instructions
– Unauthorised modifications to the machine
– Attachment of unauthorised or unapproved additional equipment
– Use of spare parts which are not KRONE original spare parts
– Stationary operation of the machine
Unauthorised modifications to the machine may affect the properties of the machine or disrupt
proper operation. For this reason, unauthorised modifications will exclude any liability of the
manufacturer for consequential damage.
3.4 Service life of the machine
– The service life of this machine strongly depends on proper use and maintenance as well as
the operating conditions.
– Permanent operational readiness as well as long service life of the machine can be
achieved by observing the instructions and notes of these operating instructions.
– After each season of use, the machine must be checked thoroughly for wear and other
damage.
– Damaged and worn parts must be replaced before placing the machine into service again.
– After the machine has been used for five years, carry out full technical inspection of the
machine. According to the results of this inspection, a decision concerning the possibility of
reuse of the machine should be taken.
Safety

3.5 Basic safety instructions
Non-compliance with the safety instructions and warnings
Non-compliance with the safety instructions and warnings may result in injuries and damage to
the environment and property.
3.5.1 Importance of the operating instructions
The operating instructions are an important document and a part of the machine. They are
aimed at the user and contain safety-relevant information.
Only the procedures indicated in the operating instructions are reliable. If the operating
instructions are not observed, people may be seriously injured or killed.
• Before using the machine for the first time, read and follow all the “Basic Safety Instructions”
in the Safety chapter.
• Before working, also read and observe the respective sections in the operating instructions.
• Keep the operating instructions ready to hand for the user of the machine.
• Hand over the operating instructions to subsequent users.
3.5.2 Personnel qualification
If the machine is not used properly, people may be seriously injured or killed. To avoid
accidents, each person who works with the machine must satisfy the following minimum
requirements:
– He is physically capable of controlling the machine.
– He can work safely with the machine in accordance with these operating instructions.
– He understands the method of operation of the machine within the scope of his work and
can identify and avoid the dangers associated with the work.
– He has read the operating instructions and can implement the information in the operating
instructions accordingly.
– He is familiar with driving vehicles safely.
– For road travel he has adequate knowledge of the highway code and has the stipulated
driving licence.
Safety
17
3.5.3 Personnel qualification of the technicians
If the work (assembly, conversion, modification, extension, repairs, retrofitting) is performed
improperly on the machine, people may be seriously or fatally injured. To avoid accidents,
everyone who performs work according to these instructions must meet the following minimum
requirements:
• Qualified professional, with relevant training.
• Capable of assembling the (partially) disassembled machine according to the assembly
instructions provided by the manufacturer.
• Capable of extending, modifying or repairing the function of the machine according to the
relevant instructions provided by the manufacturer.
• Ability to perform the work safely according to these instructions.
• Understands the mode of operation of the work to be performed and the machine and is
able to identify and avoid the hazards associated with the work.
• Has read these instructions and is able to apply the information in these instructions
accordingly.
3.5.4 Children in danger
Children cannot assess danger and behave unpredictably.
As a result, children are especially at risk.
• Keep children away from the machine.
• Keep children away from consumables.
• Especially before starting up and moving the machine, ensure that there are no children in
the danger zone.
3.5.5 Coupling the machine safely
When the machine is connected incorrectly to a forage harvester, dangers are caused which
could lead to severe accidents.
• Observe all operating instructions when connecting:
– The operating instructions of the machine
– The operating instructions of the forage harvester
– The operating instructions of universal shaft
• Follow the coupling instructions, see chapter Initial Operation, “Adjusting the Machine to
Forage Harvester” and chapter Initial Operation “Attaching to the Forage Harvester”.
• Observe the changed driving behaviour of the combination.
Safety
18
3.5.6 Structural changes to the machine
Structural changes and enhancements may impair the functionality and operational safety of the
machine. Thus there is a risk of serious injuries or death.
Structural changes and enhancements are not permitted.
3.5.7 Additional equipment and spare parts
Additional equipment and spare parts which do not comply with the requirements of the
manufacturer may impair the operational safety of the machine and cause accidents.
• To ensure operational safety, use original parts or standard parts which correspond to the
requirements of the manufacturer.
3.5.8 Workstations on the Machine
