The self-propelled high-performance mower conditioner is a self-propelled work machine with
three disc mowers and integrated mower conditioners. The self-propelled high-performance
mower conditioner is intended for use in agriculture. The self-propelled high-performance
mower conditioner is used to mow various living grasses and legumes (from the initial stage to
the end of the photosynthetic process).
The three mowing units can be used individually or together, thereby making it possible to
adjust the working width as required. The integrated mower conditioners accelerate the drying
process of the mowed crop.

4.1 Introduction
The Big M 400 Self-Propelled High-Performance Mower-Conditioner is equipped with all the
necessary safety devices (protective devices). However, it is not possible to eliminate all
potential hazards on this machine as this would impair its full functional capability. Hazard
warnings are attached to the machine in the relevant areas to warn against any dangers. The
safety instructions are provided in the form of so-called warning pictograms. Important
information on the position of these safety signs and what they mean is given below!
