7.2 SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
7.2.1 Cardan-shaft models
• All maintenance, adjustment and cleaning operations (e.g. removing foreign bodies from the blades) must
be carried out with the machine standing on firm ground, the tractor engine off, the handbrake engaged, the
ignition switched off and the key removed.
• Never stand between the tractor and the machine with the power takeoff connected and the engine on.
• Make sure the cardan shaft guards are integral and in good condition.
• Any damaged or broken guards must be replaced immediately.
• When the machine is not connected to the power source, the cardan shaft must be placed on its
support.Never use the machine in enclosed or poorly ventilated areas (even if the doors and windows are
open), as the exhaust fumes are toxic.
• Cardan-shaft models must only be used when connected to the tractor's 3-point coupling.
• Before detaching the machine from the tractor, make sure it is standing still on flat, firm ground.
