Hydraulics
The hydraulic system is under high pressure.
Escaping fluid can penetrate the skin and cause
serious injuries. In the event of injury, consult a
doctor immediately.
The machine's hydraulics has several functions,
which can cause injury to persons or damage to
the machine if operated incorrectly.
Do not connect hydraulic hoses before the
¾
hydraulics on vehicle and structure are de-
pressurised.
The hydraulic system is under high pressure.
¾
Check all lines, hoses and screwed con-
nections regularly for leaks and any visible
external damage!
Use only appropriate means when searching
¾
for leaks. Repair any damage immediately!
Oil sprays can cause injuries and fire!
Power sockets and connectors on the hydrau-
¾
lic connections should be marked in order to
exclude operating errors.
In the case of injury, contact a doctor imme-
¾
diately!
Secure or lock the control units if not in use!
¾
Replace hydraulic hoses at the latest after six
¾
years, see "Maintenance overview".
Pressure accumulator
The hydraulic system may be equipped with
pressure accumulators.
Do not open or work (welding, drilling) on
¾
pressure accumulators. Even when empty,
the tanks are still preloaded by gas pressure.
The hydraulics must be depressurized before
maintenance!
Technical limiting values
If the technical limiting values of the machine
are not complied with, the machine may sustain
damage. This can lead to accidents with severe
or even fatal physical injuries.
10
The following technical limiting values are of
particular importance for safety:
rated volume spraying mixture container
•
permissible total weight
•
operating pressure of the hydraulic system
•
See chapter "Technical data", type plate and
type approval.
Observe also the technical limit values of the
¾
carrier vehicle.
Use in the field
DANGER
No passengers are allowed to ride on the
machine!
Observe the national legislation and regula-
¾
tions on crop protection!
The national and international stipulations
¾
regarding transport of agricultural equipment
must be observed!
The personal protective outfit stipulated in
¾
the safety data sheets of the crop protection
agent manufacturers must be carried along
and worn during work.
Check the area immediately around the ma-
¾
chine (for children!) before driving off and
commissioning the machine. Ensure sufficient
visibility.
Ensure sufficient stability of the machine in
¾
case of longitudinal or transverse inclination
when working in uneven terrain. Observe the
limit values for the carrier vehicle.
Do not remove any of the mandatory and
¾
supplied protective devices.
Stay clear of the operating range of hydrauli-
¾
cally operated parts.
Use accessing aids and steps only at stand-
¾
still.
Always ensure a sufficient water supply in the
¾
machine to be able to wash off crop protection
agent in events of emergency.
Data concerning the preparations currently
¾
used must always be carried along for
information for rescue services in case of
accidents.
