The operator of a machine must care-
fully follow the driving instructions, par-
ticularly:
a. the need for care and concentration when
using machines;
b. that control of a machine sliding on a slope
will not be regained by the application of the
brake. The main cause behind a loss of ma-
chine control are:
• insucient wheel grip;
• being driven too fast;
• inadequate braking;
• the type of machine is unsuitable for its
task;
• lack of awareness of the eect of ground
conditions, especially slopes;
• Incorrect use of the machine as a towing
vehicle;
The machine is equipped with a series
of safety microswitches and devices
which must never be removed, altered
or tampered with. Removing these de-
vices invalidates the warranty and the
manufacturer declines any responsi-
bility. Always check the safety devices
work before using the machine.
