  • Page 14 CLOSED-TOE SHOE IMPORTANT The safety practice must be performed in all stages of working with the DCF-CO, thus avoiding accidents such as impact of objects, fall, noise, cuts and ergonomics, ie the person responsible for operating the DCF-CO is subject to internal and external damage to your body.

  • Page 15: Warnings

    Do not travel on highways especially at night. Use warnings signs throughout the route. If you need to travel on highways with the DCF-CO, consult the transit authorities. Do not allow people who have not been trained to use the DCF-CO, that is, that do not know how to operate it correctly. Do not transport or work with the DCF-CO near obstacles, rivers or streams.
  • Page 16 Periodically check all components of the DCF-CO before use. Due to the equipment used and work conditions on field or in maintenance areas, precautions are required. Baldan has no direct control over precautions, so it is the owner’s responsibility to implement safety procedures while working with the DCF-CO. Check the recommended minimum tractor power for each DCF-CO model. Only use the tractor wit power and ballast compatible with the load and topography of the terrain. When transporting the DCF-CO, travel at speeds compatible with the terrain and never exceed 16 km/h, as this reduces maintenance and consequently increases the useful life of the DCF-CO.
