can penetrate the skin causing serious injuries or death. If injured by escaping hydraulic fluid
immediately contact your local doctor. The hydraulic system of the implement has several functions.
Incorrect operation of this system can cause serious injury or death to personnel and/or material
damages. Hydraulic systems should only be operated at their recommended pressures to prolong
the service life of components.
The hydraulic systems on the implement operate under high pressure. Escaping hydraulic

recommended pressures to prolong the service life of components.
To reduce the risks of injury and damages occurring the operator must connect/disconnect hoses
between the implement and tractor only when the system is depressurised. The connections
between implement and tractor are marked as shown in section 5.3 to reduce handling errors
and ensure proper connection order. Connections, hydraulic lines, and hoses should be regularly
checked for leaks, signs of external damage and wear. When checking for hydraulic leaks only
use appropriate means of checking the system. If any damage is found the components should be
replaced as soon as possible due to the increased risk from oil sprays causing injuries and fires.
With the component replace any spilled hydraulic oil should also be cleaned from the machine.
Hydraulic hoses should be replaced every 6 years due to fatiguing as the components age. Prior
to any work being undertaken on the machine the control unit must be locked and secured and
any hydraulically raised components must be lowered to the ground or supported prior to working
underneath. If working on the hydraulic systems, the hydraulics must be depressurised.
2.9.5 - Pneumatic System
The pneumatic systems on the implement operates under high pressure. The pneumatic system
on the implement has several functions. Incorrect operation of the pneumatic systems can cause
serious injuries or death to personnel and/or material damages. Pneumatic systems must only be
operated within their recommended pressures to prolong the service life of components.
To reduce the risks of injury and damages occurring the operator must connect/disconnect hoses
between the implement and tractor only when the system is depressurised, prior to connecting
the hose the operator must ensure both the tractor connection and the hose is clean and free
from any debris. The connections between implement and tractor are marked as shown in section
5.5 to reduce handling errors and ensure proper connection. Connections, Pneumatic lines, and
hoses should be regularly checked for signs of external wear or damage. The system can also be
pressurised to check for leaks.
Damaged components or leaks should be replaced/ fixed as soon as possible to reduce stresses
placed upon other components. Prior to any work being undertaken on the machine the control
unit must be locked and secured and any Pneumatically raised components must be lowered to
