Match the operating speed to the respective condi-
tions.
Working area and danger zone
The working area is the entire area to be worked on.
The user is responsible for third parties in the work-
ing area.
Staying in the danger zone of the machine is not
permitted (see page 29).
Keep children and third parties away from the work-
ing area of the machine. Stop the machine immedi-
ately if people approach the working area.
Before you start work, check theentire workingarea
for foreign objects (stones, cables and hoses etc.)
and remove them. Parts thrown up by the mounted
implement can hit people and cause serious inju-
ries.
Watch out for further foreign objects, e.g., stones,
tree stumps, bottles etc. during operation and when
passing over the area and if necessary, remove
them in good time.
For operation in enclosed areas, ensure that a
safety distance is kept from edges to prevent dam-
age to the machine.
Operation and protective devices
Before you start work
Familiarise yourself with the equipment and operat-
ing elements and their functions. Above all, learn
how to turn the machine off quickly and safely in an
emergency!
Ensure that all protective devices are mounted and
properly adjusted!
Before each start-up check the functioning of all
parts and protective devices. Replace any dam-
aged parts - have this done by a specialist work-
shop if necessary. For your own safety, only use
original Agria spare parts.
Suitable shoes must be worn depending on the type
of ground surface (vegetation, humidity ...), so that
the operator does not slip or fall.
Startup
Before starting the machine, attentively read the in-
struction manual.
The remote control must be switched on and fully
charged before use.
When starting the machine, do not stand in the ma-
chine’s path, but always to the side of the machine.
Operation
Only work in light conditions that guarantee an ad-
equate view of both machine and working area.
Do not operate the machine during a thunderstorm.
Familiarize yourself with the implement and remote
control on flat, evensurfaces first of all, and operate
the control slowly. Ensure that you have plenty of
room and operate the various functions such as for-
ward/reverse, direction changes and ascending/de-
scending slopes slowly.
Avoid dangerous spots and operation on wet or
damp surfaces where water may collect unseen. Al-
ways bear in mind that the implement is equipped
with live electrical and electronic components.
The remote control has a range of around 300 m.
Always keep eye contact with the machine while it
is in operation. Your view of the machine can be
concealed by banks, bushes, hills and the like. If
you lose visual contact with the machine, stop the
machine’s movement. Failure to do so will endan-
ger persons, animals and objects in the machine’s
danger zone.
Keep a suitable distance from the machine during
operation. Do not approach the running mounted
implement and never place your hands or feet un-
derneath the base unit or the mounted implement.
Keep a proper footing and hold the remote control
firmly in your hand, to avoid losing control of the im-
plement.
Set up the operating conditions of the machine so
that the machine is not overloaded. Reduce the
speed if necessary.
Never put yourself or the machine in a position
where the machine could slip or tip over and run
over you.
Never approach the machine from below on sloping
terrain.
Always move the machine so that the three-point
mounting bracket is not directed at people or ob-
jects.
Wear safety goggles and a dust mask when work-
ing on dusty surfaces.
Wear hearing protection if this is prescribed in the
mounted implement’s operating instructions.
Use protective gloves when carrying out work on
the machine.
Before cleaning and other work on the machine,
switch off the machine proper and the implement.
Wait until the implement has stopped.
Important: Actuation of the EMERGENCY STOP
switch on the remote control immediately
switches off the machine’s traction drive, the
implement drive and the implement adjustment.
The implement also cuts out immediately if the dis-
tance between the remote control and the machine
is too great or in the event of disturbances in the
transmission frequency. Always keep your distance
