These operating instructions describe operation of the machine after
initial commissioning by the LEMKEN sales partner and handover to the
operator.
Prior to operation, initial commissioning and instruction in operation,

in these cases.
Operation of the tractor, including its relevant functions, is not part of
these operating instructions. The operator and the user are responsible
for observing the operating instructions of the tractor.
For an unambiguous assignment of this document to the machine,
transfer the following data from the type plate of the machine:
