to wear in normal operating conditions, regardless of the warranty period. The group of these

elements includes min. the following parts/components:

• tires,

• spring fingers,

• bearings.

The warranty services only apply to such cases as: mechanical damage not caused by the

fault of the user, factory defects of parts, etc.

• use of a damaged machine,

• repairs carried out by unauthorized persons, improper repairs,

• making arbitrary changes in the machine design,

the user loses the warranty.

ADVICE

You should require the seller to carefully fill out the WARRANTY CARD and complaint

coupons. The lack of e.g. date of sale or point of sale stamp exposes the user to not

accept any complaints.

The user is obliged to immediately report all noticed defects in the paint coatings or traces of

corrosion, and order removal of defects regardless of whether the damage is covered by the

warranty or not. Detailed warranty conditions are given in the WARRANTY CARD attached to

the newly purchased machine.

Modifications to the machine without the written consent of the Manufacturer are prohibited.

In particular, welding, reaming, cutting and heating of the main machine components that

directly affect safety working with not permitted.

1.5 TRANSPORT

The rotary tedder is ready for sale completely assembled and does not require packing. Only

the machine's technical documentation and any additional equipment elements are packed.

CAUTION

When transporting independently, the agricultural tractor operator should read the

instructions and follow the recommendations contained therein. When being transported

by road, the tedder must be attached to the platform of the means of transport in

accordance with the safety requirements during transport. The driver of the car should

exercise particular caution while driving. This is due to the vehicle's centre of gravity

shifting upwards with the loaded machine.

Delivery to the user is carried out by road transport or independent transport. It is allowed to

transport after connecting it to an agricultural tractor, provided that the tractor driver

acquaints himself with the tedder's instruction manual, especially with the safety information

CHAPTER 1 PRONAR PWP460

1.7

and the principles of connecting and transporting it on public roads. Driving of the tractor with

the rotary tedder connected is forbidden during the period of limited visibility.

When loading and unloading the tedder, comply with the general principles of workplace

health and safety for reloading work. Persons operating reloading equipment must have the

required permissions to use these devices.

The tedder should be attached to the lifting equipment in places designed for this purpose

(FIGURE 1.2), i.e. to the transport eyes (4) and to the central connector pin (5). The fastening

points are marked with an information sticker. It is recommended that for the time of moving

and transporting the tedder is set to the transport position, i.e. the right (1) and left (2) tedder

module should be lifted up, and the supports (3) lowered downwards. (see "CHAPTER 4.3:

TRANSPORT RUN "). In the event that ropes or belts of reloading devices can catch on

protruding parts of the machine placed in the transport position, they must also be

dismantled. When lifting the tedder, be especially careful due to the possibility of tilting the

machine and the risk of injuries from protruding parts of the machine.

CAUTION

It is forbidden to attach slings and any kind of cargo securing elements to the hydraulic

cylinders.

ADVICE

During loading, the rotary tedder should be set in the transport position. (FIGURE 1.2)

CHAPTER 1 PRONAR PWP460

1.9

The machine should be securely attached to the platform of the means of transport with the

use of belts or chains equipped with a tensioning mechanism. The securing measures must

have a valid safety certificate. Chocks or other elements without sharp edges should be

placed under the tedder wheels to prevent it from rolling. Chocks must be attached to the

vehicle's platform. Be especially careful when lifting the machine. During reloading work,

particular care should be taken not to damage the tedder's fittings and the paint coating.

CAUTION

Nobody is allowed to stay in the maneuvering area when transferring the rotary tedder to

another means of transport.

1.6 THREAT TO THE ENVIRONMENT

A hydraulic oil leak is a direct threat to the natural environment because of its limited

biodegradability. When carrying out maintenance and repair work where there is a risk of

leakage of oil, this work should be carried out in rooms with an oil resistant surface. In the

event of oil leaking into the environment, first of all contain the source of the leak, and then

collect the leaked oil using available means. Collect oil residue with sorbents or mix the oil

with sand, sawdust or other absorbent materials. Collected oil contaminants should be stored

in an airtight and marked container, resistant to hydrocarbons, and then transferred to an oil

waste disposal point. The container should be kept away from heat sources, flammable

materials and food.

It is recommended to store the oil which has been used up or is unsuitable for further use due

to the loss of its properties in its original packaging in the same conditions as described

above.

1.7 WITHDRAWAL FROM USE

If the user decides to withdraw the machine from use, comply with the provisions in force in

the given country regarding withdrawal from use and recycling of machines withdrawn from

use.

Before dismantling the machine, the oil from the hydraulic system and gear must be

completely removed. The location of the drain plugs and the method of removing oil are

described in Chapter 5.

In the event of parts being replaced, worn or damaged parts should be taken to a recycling

centre. Used oil as well as rubber or plastic elements should be taken to plants dealing with

the utilization of this type of waste.

CAUTION

During disassembly, use appropriate tools and use personal protective equipment, i.e.

protective clothing, footwear, gloves, glasses, etc.

Avoid oil contact with skin. Do not allow used oil to spill.
