2. SAFETY CONDITIONS

ATTENTION!
Only personnel familiar with this operating manual may operate the snow
plow.
Every operator of the plow should be fully aware of existing dangers and should know how to
avoid those dangers.

2.1 Safety rules

Before operation the operator must read this operating manual.
Unfamiliarity with the operating manual can lead to damaging of the plow.
Using the plow for purposes other than the intended use is forbidden.
The PVS plow with the frame has bolts on the mount which act as a mechanical overload safety
system. If those are broken all resulting damages are not covered under warranty – not applied in
PSV Up (H).
Introducing of changes to the construction without manufacturer's approval is forbidden.
Observe the regulations of the traffic code while operating the plow.
Operating speeds of the tractor-plow unit should be appropriate to working conditions, such as:
level of unevenness, rocks, curbs and other immovable obstacles.
Low operating speeds are recommended – using low gears of the tractor. Use of higher speeds
can cause injury to the driver and damage to the plow and the front TPH (three-point hitch) of
the tractor.
Unauthorized personnel can not remain in the vicinity of the plow.
Before starting work conduct a check of the device and especially the condition of the main
connections of the plow and the connection of the plow to the tractor.
Prior to work commencement check whether support leg is lifted/dismounted.
In the event of the necessity of working under a plow raised on the TPH of the tractor the plow
must be secured so that it does not fall.
The condition of bolt connections and other connecting elements should be periodically checked.
Operation with damaged connections is forbidden.
Carrying people or loads on the plow during transport or operation is forbidden.
Use original pins and safeguards to connect the plow to the tractor.
When standing the plow should be in the parking position (Fig. 14a, Fig. 17a).
Plow PSV Up (H) has gas batteries. If work is complete then reduce pressure in the assembly for
idle period. Pressure gauge should indicate "0".
Damaged hydraulic hoses and other elements of the hydraulic system should be replaced.
Use only original spare parts which are purchased at our company store or at a dealership.
During operation, maintenance or adjustment always use protective gloves.
Do not leave the tractor and plow on inclines. If such need occurs turn off the engine, engage
the parking brake and lower the plow.
The plow should be stored in a covered area in the retracted position – with the actuators
retracted to protect the piston rods.
ATTENTION!
Ensuring the safety of the work area is the responsibility of the person
operating the machine.
