Safety
General safety advice
−Before commissioning the Vibro Master 3000 read the operating instructions and
safety advice. It is mandatory to stick to the safety advice and the warnings stated
in the manual. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for accidents and
damages to the Vibro Master 3000 resulting from failure to apply safety advice.
−The Vibro Master 3000 should only be used, maintained and repaired by persons,
who are familiar with the safety advice and who are informed about the dangers.
−General safety advice and the regulations for the prevention of accidents must be
observed.
−The safety instructions must be passed on to other users.
−Use the implement only for soil preparation in farming.
Coupling and uncoupling
−Be careful when coupling or uncoupling implements to and from the tractor. Do
not stand between tractor and the Vibro Master 3000, when the tractor is moving.
−Fasten the implement only at the provided points.
−Check and attach transport equipment, for example lighting equipment, warnings
and possibly safety equipment.
−Observe the tractor's operating instructions.
−Use original and correct coupling parts.

6
Three-point hitch or linkage
−The attachment category for the three-point hitch on the tractor and the
implement has to match properly, or the appropriate adjustments must be made.
−Before coupling, check all linkage parts for cracks, missing components, loose
bolts and nuts etc. Make sure the implement will not disconnect by accident
during fieldwork or transport.
−While the implement, when mounted in the three-point hitch, is in transport
position, ensure sufficient locking at the side of the three-point linkage.
Operation
−Before each use, check the implement and the tractor as to their road and
operational safety.
−Before starting work, familiarise yourself with all facilities and operating elements.
It is too late to do so during work activities.
−Examine work surface for hidden obstacles, which could pose a risk (For example
under-ground cables, pipes).
−Adjustments should only be made on the implement, when it is completely parked
on the ground in unfolded position and when the engine of the tractor is switched
off. Remove ignition key and apply hand brake.
−Wear tightly fitting working clothes. Avoid loose clothes, which could be caught in
movable parts.
−Wear strong shoes or preferably safety shoes.
−Unauthorised persons are not allowed to stay in the working area during work. No
work is to be carried out, if there are unauthorised persons, especially children,
near the Vibro Master 3000 or in the danger zone of foldable parts without
keeping a safe distance.
−It is prohibited to allow any person to ride on the Vibro Master 3000.
−Never work diagonally to inclines or slopes, where there is a risk that the tractor
can tilt.
Transportation by road/transport
−When using public traffic routes, observe the regulations specific to the particular
country including the local maximum transportation width.
−The attachment of implements should not exceed the admissible total weight, the
admissible axle load and the weight-bearing capacity of the tractor tyres and the
capacity of the lift.
−The tractor must be suitable for the Vibro Master 3000.
−To ensure the ability to steer, the front axle load should always amount to at least
20% of the total weight of the tractor incl. cultivator.
−Hitch up the machine as far as it is necessary to ensure a safe road transport.

Attention!
The driving behaviour of the tractor changes.
Suit your driving according to the conditions of the street.
Pay special attention to the centre of gravity of hydraulic foldable machines.
Do not exceed a speed of 25 km/h when transporting Vibro Master 3000 on the road.
Before driving
−Observe admissible axle loads, total weights and transport measurements.
−For transportation on any public road, track or place, the legal transport width
according to local rules should not be exceeded. If the transport width is
exceeded, a special authorisation may be obtained under certain conditions from
the appropriate authorities.
−Road behaviour, performance, ability to steer and brake are influenced by
attached or coupled implements and ballast weights. Ensure that there is
sufficient ability to steer and brake.
−Before starting off the Vibro Master 3000, check the immediate area. Pay special
attention to children and that there is sufficient visibility.
−For road transportation with the implement raised, lock the control valves of the
tractor.
−Make sure that wing security locks are correctly locked.
NOTE:
The security locking devices prevents from accidental unfolding in case of a defect in
the hydraulic hoses. However, it may not prevent unintentional unfolding or lowering
if the control device is operated by mistake.
During transportation
−Riding on the implement during work and transport is not permitted.
−Never leave the driver's cab during transportation.
−When driving around corners and bends take the extra width and the inertia of the
Vibro Master 3000 as well as the high centre of gravity of the folded frame into
consideration.
After transportation
−Before leaving the tractor, set the implement down onto the ground, switch engine
off, remove ignition key and apply hand brake.
−No one should stand between tractor and implement without securing the vehicle
by the hand brake and/or stop chocks.
−Foldable frame parts should be completely unfolded. The implement must only be
parked with unfolded frame parts.

8
Maintenance
−Repairs, maintenance and cleaning work as well as the solving of functional faults
should principally only be carried out, while the engine is switched off. Remove
ignition key and apply hand brake.
−For maintenance on a raised up implement, always secure the Vibro Master 3000
on suitable stands.
−Do not ever go under the Vibro Master 3000 unless secured on suitable stands.
−Never attempt to disconnect hydraulic connections while system is pressurised.
−When changing work tools, which have cutting edges, use suitable tools and
gloves.
−Spare parts should correspond at least to the technical requirements defined by
the manufacturer. Use only original parts.
