Operating The Tractor And Windrower; (10.1) Foreign Debris Hazards - Schulte SRW800 Operator’s Manual With Parts Listing

10. OPERATING THE TRACTOR AND WINDROWER

THE OPERATOR
UNDERSTAND HOW TO OPERATE THE TRACTOR
AND WINDROWER AND ALL CONTROLS BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE. The operator must read
and understand the Safety and Operation Sections of
the windrower and tractor operator's manuals. These
manuals must be read and explained to any operator
who cannot read. Never allow someone to operate the
windrower and tractor without complete operating
instructions.
Before starting any operation, the operator must become
familiar with the area to be windrowed and any obstacles
and hazards contained within to ensure safety to the
operator, bystanders, and equipment. Special attention
should be paid to foreign debris, rough terrain, steep
slopes, and passersby and animals in the area.
WARNING! Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become
entangled in the rotating parts of the Implement. These objects could
then swing outside the housing at greater velocities than the blades.
Such a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury
or even death. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before working in
the area. Remove any such objects from the site. Never allow the teeth
to contact such objects.
10.1 Foreign Debris Hazards
Before windrowing, inspect the area to make sure there
are no objects larger than 25" to windrow or debri that
can get entangled on the drum. Remove all foreign
objects and debris. If objects are too big to remove,
mark them clearly and be sure to prevent the
implement from contacting them.
