Make sure the machine has sufficient clearance to pass in all directions. Pay special attention to overhead power
lines and hanging obstacles. High voltage lines may require significant clearance for safety. Contact local authorities
or utilities to obtain safe clearance distances from high voltage power lines.
Retract raised or extended components, if necessary. Remove or lower radio antennas or other accessories. Should
a contact between the machine and an electric power source occur the following precautions must be taken: Stop the
machine movement immediately. Apply the park brake, stop the engine and remove the key. Check if you can safely
leave the cab or your actual position without contact with electrical wires. If not, stay in your position and call for help.
If you can leave your position without touching lines, jump clear of the machine to make sure you do not make contact
with the ground and the machine at the same time. Do not permit anyone to touch the machine until power has been
shut off to the power lines.
Electrical storm safety
Do not operate machine during an electrical storm.
If you are on the ground during an electrical storm, stay away from machinery and equipment. Seek shelter in a
permanent, protected structure.
If an electrical storm should strike during operation, remain in the cab. Do not leave the cab or operator's platform.
Do not make contact with the ground or objects outside the machine.
Mounting and dismounting
Mount and dismount the machine only at designated locations that have handholds, steps or ladders.
Do not jump off the machine.
Make sure steps, ladders and platforms remain clean and clear of debris and foreign substances. Injury may result
from slippery surfaces.
Face the machine when mounting and dismounting.
Maintain a three‐point contact with steps, ladders and handholds.
Never mount or dismount from a moving machine.
Working at heights
When the normal use and maintenance of the machine requires working at heights: Correctly use installed steps,
ladders and railings. Never use ladders, steps or railings while the machine is moving. Do not stand on surfaces
which are not designed as steps or platforms.
Do not use the machine as a lift, ladder or platform for working at heights.
Implement safety
Make sure the implement is connected to a stable device when activating the hydraulics to fold and unfold the wings.
Always make sure the work area within the radius of the wings is clear of other persons before operating the wing lift
system.
