2 SAFETY RULES
2.1 General safety rules
The machine was designed and constructed according to appropriate safety standards. Before using the machine,
carefully follow all the precautions and instructions contained in the manual in order to avoid accidents.
►Ensure that, on the ground where you are to work, there are no large stones or rocks, protruding tree stumps,
metal elements of any kind (mesh, wires, cables, chains, tubes, etc.).
►Carefully follow the instructions for the adjustment of the machine height above ground.
►While working with the machine, ensure that there are no persons or animals within a radius of at least 50 metres.
►Never work “ush to the ground” on wet terrain. In these conditions, in fact, there is a risk of taking too much
power from the motor, lling the rotor protective casing with pressed mud, and causing excessive wear on the
ails and the drive belts, thereby compromising machine performance and balance.
►A tractor of appropriate power must be used on each machine. If using a tractor with higher power than the
maximum the machine can absorb, use a PTO shaft with a clutch (torque limiting device), without which the
drive unit and the ail shaft could get damaged.
►Examine the safety decals applied to the machine and described in this manual. To work safely, clean them
and, if they are not legible, replace them with new decals.
FERRI declines all liability for damage caused by improper use of the machine.

SAFETY RULES
02-Norme per la circolazione stradale
2.2 Safetyrulesconcerningroadtrac
Whenever the public road network must be used, scrupulously respect the highway code.
Pay particular attention to the speed limit.
WARNING
Observe the following rules when using the public road network with the machine coupled to the tractor (or self-
propelled machine):
►Make sure that all the lights and reectors are correctly working and positioned, clean, and clearly visible as
required by local regulations.
►Before heading out onto the road, consider installing optional light bars.
►When driving on public roads, observe all road regulations.
►Before entering public roads from muddy or unpaved terrain, clean the tires of the tractor (or self-propelled
machine) thoroughly of any residual mud.
Make surethe steering andbrakes of thetractor (or self-propelledmachine) are inexcellent
condition and operate properly.
DANGER
►Switch o the tractor PTO.
►Never transport the machine with the moving ail holder shaft, not even for short distances. Make sure that the
rotor control is disengaged and the moving parts of the machine have all come to a complete stop.
►Lock the machine with the safety devices provided.
►If the machine is used for verge maintenance on public roads:
1) The machine must only be driven by personnel specically instructed in safe use;
2) The safety procedures imposed by the competent Body must be adopted;
3) Follow the machine with a vehicle, positioned at a distance of approximately 20-30 metres, in order to notify
road trac of the possible danger;
4) Place appropriate notices ahead of the machine so that vehicles arriving on the other side of the road will be
able to stay at a safe distance from the working range of the machine;
►Do not allow anyone to ride on the tractor (or self-propelled machine) or on the machine during transport.
►Reduce speed on rough roads and surfaces.
►Use rotating ashing lights on the tractor (or self-propelled machine) during the transport, unless they are
prohibited by local safety regulations.
►Make sure that the machine has been correctly installed on the tractor (or self-propelled machine) and that all
the safety pins have been mounted correctly.
►Use the lifting device of the tractor (or self-propelled machine) to raise the machine coupled to the 3-point
coupling to the maximum height above the ground.
►Test the tractor (or self-propelled machine) at low speed and then increase it slowly. Try the brakes gently to
determine the stopping characteristics of the tractor (or self-propelled machine) with the machine coupled.
Always proceed at a moderate speed, especially on rough surfaces and steep gradients,
to avoid overbalancing. The weight of the machine alters the stability of the tractor (or
self-propelled machine) and inuences its behaviour on the road, steering and braking
capacity.
