3. Hazards due to accessories
Attached devices, mowing devices and any other additional devices used must not disable the
safety devices of the 2-wheel tractor.
Where
•Snow hoe b s = 25.0 m bv = 25 m
•Snow plough blade bs = 0.5 m bv = 2 m
•Sweeping machine bs = 2.0 m bv = 5 m
•Mowing bars bs = 1.0 m bv = 2 m
Also refer to the operating manuals for the respective attached devices!

4. Noise / vibration values
Caution!
Long periods of exposure to noise and vibrations lead to damage to health. Wear ear pro-
tectors and adapt your working hours.
Noise information (sound power level EN ISO 3744) - emissions
Noise information (sound pressure level EN ISO 11201) - immissions
Vibrations (hand/arm vibrations DIN 45675 Part 8) - immissions
The A-weighted sound power level and the A-weighted emission sound pressure level of the
2-wheel tractor, without additional devices, at the operator's ear are
Version Sound power level
[dB(A)]/[rpm] Sound pressure level [dB(A)]/[rpm] Vibrations [m/s²]
CE6 100.1 89.4 4.0
CE10 98.5 88.2 4.4
- Wear ear protectors
Emissions of a noise level can lead to disturbances of acoustic signals. Other vehicles may
not be noticed – particular caution is required!
Depending on the attached device, an increase in the sound pressure level of up to 4.5 dB(A) is
to be expected - exact data is given in the respective operating manual; this also applies to
the items below.
•Measurements took place on grass in the open air, based on EN 12733.
•The measuring instrument used, Norsonic type 116, complies with the DIN IEC 651 class 1,
DIN IEC 804 class 1 and DIN 45657 class 1 standards.
•Engine speed = highest engine operating speed.
•Radius of the semicircular measurement area = 4 m.
2. Vibration measurements took place in accordance with EN 1033
Measuring devices
•Measuring device – CASTEL, GA-2003
•Vibration recorder - MONITRAN LTD, MTN / P100T-10, S/N 103988
Operating conditions
•Fuel tank approx. 50 % full.
•Steering shaft adjusted to the body height of the operator.
•Appliance run-in and at operating temperature.
•Measured on the steering shaft in accordance with EN 12733.
•Engine speed = highest engine operating speed

5. Sources of danger
The 2-wheel tractor may be used on both commercial and private properties.
• Check that the unit is safe to operate and to be used in traffic each time before putting it into
operation!
• Observe the generally applicable regulations for safety and the prevention of accidents in
addition to the instructions in this operating manual.
• When using the 2-wheel tractor on public roads, the stipulations of the respective na-
tional road traffic laws (in Germany: StVZO) in their current versions apply.
• Familiarise yourself with all devices and controls as well as their functions before starting
work. Make sure that all protective devices have been attached properly! Doing so during
the work assignment is too late!
• The user is responsible for the safety of third parties in the working area!
• It is forbidden to enter or remain in the working and danger area of the 2-wheel trac-
tor!
• Before starting up, check the immediate vicinity - children!
• Ensure that the work area is sufficiently well illuminated!
• The driver should wear tight-fitting clothes. Avoid loose-fitting clothes. Wear sturdy shoes!
• Do not leave the engine running in closed rooms – the exhaust gases are harmful to health
and may under certain circumstances lead to death!
• Be careful when handling fuel – increased risk of fire! Never refill the fuel tank in the prox-
imity of open flames, igniting sparks and hot engine parts. Do not smoke when refuelling!
• Before refuelling, switch off the engine and remove the ignition key (if one exists). Do not
refuel in closed rooms – risk of explosion!
• Use a suitable pouring aid (e.g. a funnel). If possible, refuel only in the open air with the
engine switched off and cold.
• Do not spill fuel – risk of fire!
• If you have spilt fuel, clean all parts and push the motor mower away from this place before
starting it.
• Do not inhale petrol vapours – risk of cancer due to benzene content; use lead-free and ben-
zene-free petrol if possible – refer also to the engine manufacturer’s operating manual!
• In order to avoid the risk of fire, keep the tractor clean!
• Be careful when handling brake fluids and battery acid – they are toxic and caustic!
• Switch off the engine and pull off the spark plug cap before performing maintenance and
cleaning work.
• Observe permissible axle loads, overall weights and transport dimensions!
• Particular caution is necessary when coupling or uncoupling attached tools to or from the
tractor!
• Make sure that all protective devices have been attached properly!
6. Lighting devices on single-axle tractors
if these are used on public roads.
Distinction must be made here as to whether the single-axis tractor
• is guided by a pedestrian via the steering shafts or,
• is driven from a sulky (single-track trailer) or
• is driven from a trailer.
In the dark, or when necessitated by the weather, single-axle tractors guided by pedestrians via
the steering shafts require at least a single, non-dazzling lamp with a white light, which must

Page 10
Version 01-2011
General safety instructions
Compakt Easy
be affixed to the left-hand side (UK: right-hand side) or carried by hand so that its light is clear-
ly visible to oncoming traffic (from the front) or overtaking traffic (from the rear) (Article 50,
paragraph 2, German Highway Code and Article 17, paragraph 5, German Highway Code).
If a single-axle tractor with a trailer is transported on a public road, no operating permit is re-
quired up to a design-related top speed of 6 km/h. The name and place of residence of the keeper
of the vehicle must be displayed by a sign on the trailer. A driving licence is not required, how-
ever. The driver of the vehicle must be qualified to drive it. Lighting devices etc. must be present.
7. Operator position
The operator position on the 2-wheel tractor is located at the two steering shafts (controls)
in front of the 2-wheel tractor.
8. Authorised operators
Only authorised persons may work with the 2-wheel tractor type Compakt Easy.
The minimum age for operators is 16 years. No operating permit and no driving licence is re-
quired for single-axle traction and working machines guided by pedestrians via steering shafts.
The operator is responsible for the safety of third parties in the working area.
The responsibilities for different activities on and with the 2-wheel tractor must be clearly
defined and adhered to. Unclear competences are a safety risk.
