Product liability, information obligation
Product liability obliges manufacturers and dealers to issue operating instructions for the machine at the point of sale and to instruct
the customer on the operation, safety and maintenance regulations governing the machine.
A confirmation is required to verify that the machine and operating instructions have been handed over correctly.
For this purpose
- Document A is to be signed and returned to Pöttinger or via the internet to www.poettinger.at
- Document B remains with the specialist dealer handing over the machine.
- The customer receives document C.
For the purposes of product liability law, every farmer is an entrepreneur.
In the terms of product liability law, damage to property is any damage arising due to the machine, but not to the machine, and an
excess (500 euros) exists for this liability.
Corporate damage to property within the terms of the product liability law is excluded from this liability.
Be advised! The operating instructions must also be handed over with any subsequent machine sale or transfer and the transferee
must be instructed in the regulations stated.

Introduction
Dear Customer
These Operating Instructions are intended to allow you
to familiarise yourself with the implement and provide
you with clear information on safe and correct handling,
care and maintenance. Thus please take the time to read
these Instructions.
These Operating Instructions comprise part of the imple-
ment. They are to be kept at a suitable location and acces-
sible to staff over the entire service life of the implement.
Instructions based on the national provisions regarding
protection against accidents, road traffic and environmental
protection are also to be applied additionally.
Any persons commissioned with the operation, maintenance
or transport of the implement must read and understand
these Instructions, in particular the safety information, prior
to starting work. Any warranty claims lapse on non-obser-
vance of these Instructions.
In case you have questions related to this operation manual
or further questions about this implement, please contact
your dealer.
Care and maintenance performed in good time and scru-
pulously according to the maintenance intervals specified
ensure operational and traffic safety as well as the reliability
of the implement.
Use only the original spare parts and accessories from
Pöttinger or accepted by Pöttinger. For those parts relia-
bility, safety and suitability for Pöttinger machines can be
assured. Warranty claims lapse if non-approved parts are
used. The use of original parts is also recommended after
the warranty period has expired to maintain the performance
of the implement in the long term.
Product liability legislation obliges the manufacturer and
the authorised dealer to issue Instructions when selling
implements and to instruct customers in the use with refer-
ence to the safety, operating and maintenance regulations.
Confirmation in the form of a declaration of transfer is
required to verify that the implement and Instructions have
been transferred correctly. The declaration of transfer was
attached to the implement on delivery.
Every self-employed person and farmer is an entrepreneur
within the meaning of the product liability legislation. In
accordance with the laws of product liability, entrepre-
neurial property damages are excluded from the liability.
All damage to property within the meaning of the product
liability legislation is regarded as damage caused by the
implement but not to the implement.
These Operating Instructions are integral part of the imple-
ment delivery scope. You should therefore hand them over to
the new owner if ownership of the implement is transferred.
Train and instruct the new owner in the regulations stated.
The Pöttinger Service-Team wishes you good luck.

special care not to get stuck or get caught in
between.
- Attach machine to tractor's lifting gear.
- Secure hydraulic lower link so that machine cannot
swing out sideways.
Fold up support stand
CAUTION
Risk of injury through raised support stand
• Mind the self-opening support stand when
unlocking it.

As the tines are located very close to the feeler wheel, these can also ideally follow the uneven ground. The result is very clean raking.

General guidelines on working with
the machine
DANGER
Life-threatening danger exists through rotating rotors
and folding arms
• Switch off engine and remove ignition key
prior to any adjustment, maintenance or
repair work.
• Only carry out work in the rotor area when
the PTO shaft is stationary.
• Do not enter the rotor area while the drive
motor is running.
• Before switching on the drive motor, make
sure that the working area is free and that
no one is in the danger zone.
495.173
DANGER
Life-threatening danger exists through swivelling
and folding rotor arms
• Do not stand in the swivel range of the rotor
arms.
• Before raising or lowering the rotor arms,
make sure that the working area is free and
that no one is in the danger zone.
DANGER
Life-threatening danger through the tractor/trailer
tipping on an incline, especially in transport position
and when cornering.
• Reduce speed in general relevant to the pre-
vailing environmental conditions, especially
when cornering and on slopes.
• Drive backwards on the slope rather than
carry out a risky turning manoeuvre.
WARNING
Risk of serious injury due to long-term work with
increased noise interference.
The noise level in the workplace can deviate from the
measured value (see Technical Data) particularly through
the differing types of tractor cabins.
• If a noise level of 85 dB(A) is reached or
exceeded, the farmer must have suitable
hearing protection in readiness (UVV 1.1 §
2).
• If a noise level of 90 dB (A) is reached or
exceeded, then hearing protection must be
worn (UVV 1.1 § 16).
TAKE NOTE
Property damage to the towing vehicle because of
its unsuitability
• Observe the technical limits of the towing
vehicle with regard to axle load and the load
on the coupling.

Important notes prior to starting work
(see Supplement-A1 pts. 1, 2, 3 and 4))
1. Switch on p.t.o.
Always and only switch the p.t.o. drive on when all safety
devices (covers, protective aprons, casings, etc.) are
in proper condition and are attached to the machine in
their safety positions.
2. Only switch the machine on when in the
working position and do not exceed the
stipulated p.t.o. speed!
A transfer, located near the transmission,
advises the p.t.o. speed that your machine is equipped
for.
- Switch on the p.t.o. shaft at idling speed.
- Only switch on the p.t.o. shaft when the machine is at
least in the field transport position!
3. P.t.o. speed
- Max. p.t.o. speed = 540 U/min.
The most suitable shaft speed is approximately 450
r.p.m.
- If the feed is pulled by the tines from the swath back to
the stripe (unclean raking), the p.t.o. shaft speed must
be reduced.
4. Working speed
- Select a driving speed that ensures the entire crop is
picked up cleanly.
- In the case of an overload, change into a lower gear.
- In order to achieve clean raking, the rotor must be
inclined slightly towards the swath. See chapter
"Operation" for exact setting.
5. Settings and checking
- Adapt tine height to ground conditions. Tines should
lightly touch the ground. If the setting is too low, the
feed will be soiled, resp. the sward will be damaged.
- Check the setting during operation frequently.
- Check air pressure regularly!
- Check hydraulic hose lines regularly and replace them
if damaged and/or embrittled (spare parts list).
- Carry out a regular, thorough brake system inspection.
- The fixing screws must be checked at regular intervals
and re-tightened if necessary.
- Regularly check if tines are in sound condition!
Fit all tine carriers to the rotors.
- Fix tine carriers onto rotor arms and secure with linch
pin.
