Explanation of signal words
DANGER
The signal word DANGER warns of a hazardous situation which will result in serious injuries
or death if the warning sign is ignored.
WARNING
The signal word WARNING warns of a hazardous situation which will result in serious injuries
or death if the warning sign is ignored.
CAUTION
The signal word CAUTION warns of a hazardous situation which will result in minor to
moderate injuries if the warning sign is ignored.
Example of a warning sign:
WARNING
Eye damage caused by flying dirt particles
When cleaning with compressed air, dirt particles are ejected at high speed and could get into
the eyes. Therefore eyes could be hurt.
Keep people away from the working area.
Wear personal protective equipment when performing cleaning work with compressed air
(e.g. eye protection).
Warnings of property damage/environmental damage
Warnings of property/environmental damage are separated from the remaining text and marked
with "Notice".
Example:
NOTICE
Gearbox damage due to low oil level
The gearboxes could be damaged when the oil level is too low.
Check gear oil level at regular intervals and top up oil, if necessary.
Check gear oil level approx. 3 to 4 hours after the machine has been switched off. Check
oil level only when machine is in horizontal position.
Notices with information and recommendations
Additional information and recommendations for trouble-free and productive operation of the
machine are separated from the remaining text and marked with “Information”.

2.1 Intended use
This machine is a self-propelled forage harvester and is used to chop crops.
The crops designated for the intended use of this machine in conjunction with
a KRONE XCollect are harvested thick-stemmed forage plants, e.g. maize plants,
a KRONE EasyCollect are harvested thick-stemmed forage plants, e.g. maize plants,
a KRONE XDisc are mown stalk and leaf crops,
a KRONE EasyFlow collected stalk and leaf crops,
a header for smallwood crops from cut groves.
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 located in the
protective position.
all safety instructions of the operating instructions have been observed and complied with,
both in chapter “Basic safety instructions”, see Page19, 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, see Page19.
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.
2.2 Reasonably foreseeable misuse
Any use beyond the intended usesee Page18 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 Page18
Transport of people
Transport of goods
Exceeding the permitted technical gross weight
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.

2.3 Service life of the machine
The service life of this machine depends on its proper operation and maintenance as well
as the operating and harvesting conditions.
By heeding the instructions and information in these operating instructions, permanent
operational readiness and a long service life of the machine can be achieved.
After each operating season, inspect the entire machine for wear and other damage.
Replace damaged and worn components before recommissioning the machine.
Carry out a full technical inspection of the machine after five years of machine operation
and make a decision on further machine usage taking the results of this inspection into
account.
Theoretically, the service life of this machine is unlimited as all worn or damaged
components can be replaced.
