Start-up Securing the tractor / implement against unintentional start-up and roll- WARNING Risk of crushing, shearing, cutting, catching, drawing in and knocks during all work on the implement • By driven work elements. • By unintentional movement of work elements or uninten- tional actuation of hydraulic functions when the tractor en- gine is running.
Coupling and uncoupling the implement Coupling and uncoupling the implement WARNING Risk of crushing, catching, drawing in and/or knocks due to un- intentional starting and rolling of the tractor when coupling or uncoupling the PTO shaft and supply lines. Secure the tractor and implement against unintentional starting and rolling before entering the danger area between the tractor and im- plement to couple or uncouple the the PTO shaft and supply lines.
Coupling and uncoupling the implement Coupling the implement WARNING Risk of crushing and contusions between the tractor and the implement when coupling the implement! Instruct people to leave the danger area between the tractor and the implement before you approach the implement. Any helpers may only act as guides standing next to the tractor and the implement, and may only move between the vehicles when both are at a standstill.
