3.1.5 SLOPES

TAKE EXTRA CARE WHEN WORKING ON SLOPES

• Local undulations and sinkage will change the general slope. Avoid ground conditions which can cause the
machine to slide.
• Keep machine speeds low on slopes and during tight turns.
• Remember there is no such thing as a "safe" slope.
• Travel on grass slopes requires particular care.

3.1.6 BLOCKED CUTTING UNITS

• Stop the engine and make sure all moving parts are stationary.
• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.
• Release blockages with care. Keep all parts of the body away from the cutting edge. Beware of energy in
the drive which can cause rotation when the blockage is released.
• Keep other people away from the cutting units as rotation of one can cause the others to rotate.
3.1.7 ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATION, MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
• Stop the engine and make sure all moving parts are stationary.
• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.
• Read all the appropriate servicing instructions.
• Use only the replacement parts supplied by the original manufacturer.
• When adjusting the cutter blades take care not to get hands and feet trapped when rotating blades.
• Make sure that other people are not touching any cutting unit, as rotation of one blade can cause the
others to rotate.
• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• When working underneath lifted parts or machines, make sure adequate support Is provided.
• Do not dismantle the machine without releasing or restraining forces which can cause parts to move
suddenly.
