3.Safety in use
3.1General safety and accident prevention regulations
Before using the spreader, you should carefully read the contents of the
instruction manual. During operation, adhere to all instructions
contained in the manual.
Before every start-up, check the spreader for operational safety
(completeness of all screens, tightness of all the screws, if there are no
cracks on the structure or visible damage, proper tension of the feeder
chain (section 6.8)).
Entering the spreader is possible only during absolute motionlessness
of the machine and disconnection of the Power take-off (PTO) from
the tractor.
The spreader should be combined with tractors recommended by the
manufacturer accordingly to table 3 (section 4.1).
When using the machine, pay special attention to marked crushing and
cutting points, as well as to all pictograms on the spreader.
During transport, check the condition of preheat of the tires, brake
drums and wheel bearings. In the case of detecting an excessively
heating element, stop the machine from operating until the cause is
determined, and then rectify the fault.

CynkoMet N-233
Page 17
CAUTION!
CAUTION!
Before driving with the spreader in a place where there
are flammable materials you should imperatively check
the status of the heating elements of the spreader,
especially the brake drums and driving wheel bearings,
due to the risk of fire.
The speed of driving must always be adapted to the environmental
conditions.
When coupling and decoupling the machine to/from the tractor, you
must take special caution.
Exceeding the permissible load can cause accidents on the road and
damage to the machine.
When cornering, you should take into account the inertia of the
machine.
Before you start, check if the spreader has any loose parts.
Within additional elements which are force operated (e.g. by hand),
there are places of crushing and shearing.
Malfunctioning of the machine should be removed only during absolute
motionlessness of the machine and disconnection of the PTO from
the tractor.
The presence of persons between the tractor and spreader is prohibited
until the vehicle is secured against rolling by means of the parking
brake (“handbrake”) and wedges under the wheels.
The permissible transport speed 30 km / h cannot be exceeded.
It is forbidden to transport people or animals on the spreader.
It is forbidden to enter into the loading platform during operation and
when coupling the tractor with the spreader.
The machine is designed to work on slopes up to 8 °.
Decoupling of the spreader from the tractor is not allowed while the
engine is running and the key has not been removed.
Modifications can be made only with the permission of the
manufacturer. The basic condition for safety are original spare parts
and components. Using other parts may result in exclusion of liability of
the manufacturer for resulting consequences.
Careless operation and use of the spreader may injure the operator or
third parties and damage the tractor-spreader set.
It is forbidden to use the machine by persons not qualified to drive

CynkoMet N-233
Page 18
agricultural tractors, including under aged persons and persons under
the influence of alcohol.
It is forbidden to use the spreader in non-compliance to its purposes. The staff
operating the machine should strictly observe basic occupational health and
safetyrules.
Prior to every use of the spreader, check its technical condition, especially the
condition of the coupling system, drive system, brake system and light
signaling system.
The machine is marked with information and warning inscriptions in the form
of stickers as specified in table no. 2. The user is obliged to constantly take
care of the readability of signs and warning symbols on the machine. In the
event of damage or destruction replace them with new ones. Labels with

3.2Attaching and detaching the machine to the tractor
Before attaching the spreader, make sure that the tractor and spreader
are technically efficient.
When connecting the spreader, use only the intended trailer hitch in
accordance with the instruction manual of the tractor. After completion
of the machine coupling, check the security of the hitch. Read the whole
manual for the tractor's use If the tractor is equipped with an automatic
hitch, make sure the coupling operation has been completed correctly.
Be very careful when you connect the machine.
The presence of persons on the spreader’s cargo bed and between
machines during coupling is strictly prohibited. The adjustable drawbar
support must always be used.
Coupling and uncoupling of the spreader may only take place when the
machine is immobilized with the parking brake.
3.3Road wheels
When working with the driving wheels (wheel replacement) - always secure
the spreader against uncontrolled movement by means of the parking brake
and wedges laid under the wheels.
Wheel replacement is to be performed on a stable surface, in order to prevent
dropping ofthe jack or other wheels.
Repair work should be performed using theappropriate tools.
After each everyinstallation of a wheel, tighten the fastening nuts after the first
10 working hours,thencheck their tightnessevery50 working hours.
Inspect air pressureregularly.
Dismantling the wheels can be carried out only in the case when the
spreader is not loaded.
Avoid damaged road surface, quick and variable maneuvers and high
speed during turns.
Tire valves are to be protected with caps to prevent penetration of
impurities.

CynkoMet N-233
Page 20
3.4 Pneumatic and hydraulic system
During work, the hydraulic and pneumatic systems are under high
pressure.
Check the technical condition of hydraulic and pneumatic hose
connections regularly. Oil and air leaks are a sign of damage to the
system, making further use of the machine impossible.
In case of failure of the hydraulic or pneumatic installation, the spreader
should be out of operation until failure removal.
When connecting hydraulic hoses to the tractor, remember that the
hydraulic system of both machines must not be under pressure. If
necessary, reduce the pressure in the system so as to enable
connection.
In the case of injury by a jet of hydraulic oil, consult a physician
immediately. Hydraulic oil may cause infections if it penetrates into the
body. In the event of eye contamination, wash eyes with a large amount
of water and consult a physician.
In the event of contact of oil with skin, wash the dirty spot with soap and
water. Do not use organic solvents (petrol, kerosene).
Use the hydraulic oil recommended by the manufacturer.
After replacing the hydraulic oil, the used oil must be disposed of. Used
oil is to be stored in its original containers or in hydrocarbon-resistant
substitute packages. Replacement containers must be carefully
described and stored properly.
It is forbidden to store hydraulic oil in packaging designed for food
storage.
