Page 7: Dangerous Area
2.4. DANGEROUS AREA The winch may only be operated from a safe place that ensures that the machine itself, the load, the rope, or any other object cannot hit the operator in case the pulling rope (or any of the devices for tying and securing loads) breaks. The operator seat of the tractor is considered to be a safe place to operate the winch, if a suitable protective net is correctly installed between the winch and the driver's seat. - Page 8 When working with the snatch block, do not stay in the “danger triangle” between the winch, the snatch block, and the load, where there is a danger in case of breakage of the load belt or the snatch block. ...
- Page 9 Do not stand under the attached load while pulling the load up or down the slope, even if the load is secured on a tightened rope. When securing a standing tree, the pulling rope must be attached to the three on the upper 2/3 of its height, and tensioned before starting the felling process.
