1. INTRODUCTION INTENDED USE The disc mower SMF 3005 should only be used for the agricultural work which it is intended for, i.e.: Usual work in fields or meadows where natural or planted grass or green crops are cut on the ground for animal feeding purposes. The material is laid in a swath, which allows subsequent picking up.
2. CONNECTION AND TEST DRIVING SAFETY The safety of persons and machines is an integral part of Kongskilde Industries A/S’s development work. However, damage can occur as a consequence of misuse and insufficient instruction. We wish to ensure the safety of you and your workforce in the best possible way, but this also requires an effort on your part.
