6. Accident prevention
Most accidents that occur during work, maintenance or transport of a
machine are due to non-observance of the most elementary rules of
accident prevention.
Therefore, it is important that all persons involved with use of the ma-
chine are aware of it and comply with following rules:
•Before starting any operation, read the instruction manual and
note safety information!
•Before each use, check tractor / machine 3-point linkage, chains,
suspension of shaking arm as well as hydraulic hoses and oper-
ating elements that they are in properly condition.
•Switch-off PTO drive and tractor prior to any repair, maintenance
or cleaning operation!
•Driving on public road, shaker unit must be in adequate safe po-
sition!
•Drive slowly with shaking unit in working position!
•Operate the shaking head only, when the tractor is standing still!
•Never climb on the machine during any operation!
•Never remove any safety protection!
Note:
•Never enter working area during PTO drive shift in operation.
Accident risk in case of contact with PTO drive shaft.
For your personal safety, never wear loose clothing like scarves…
•Prior to any operation, check PTO dive shaft length / overlapping.
Possibly a length adjustment will be required.
•Operate the machine only at the specified speed (max. 540 rpm)!

•Operate machine only with PTO drive unit fully protected, i.e. uni-
versal joint shaft completely covered and additional protection on
tractor and HAS 10. Make sure that the universal joint shaft con-
nections are securely locked!
•Attach the safety chain to avoid turning of PTO drive shaft protec-
tion during operation!
•The operator is responsible for compliance with applicable acci-
dent prevention regulations, in addition to the generally recog-
nized safety, occupational health and traffic safety regulations!
•Note:
Because of the maximum allowable additional tractor load, please
refer to adequate information, given by tractor manufacturer!
Lifting the HAS 10 with tractor’s 3-point linkage will increase trac-
tor’s axle load!
•Note:
Check especially the instructions of the tractor manufacturer about
the maximum allowable slope angle with attached machines /
load.
This concerns driving parallel to the slope or downslope.
Any operation not adapted to local conditions can cause serious
personal injuries or material damages because of tilting of the
combination of tractor + HAS 10.

Notes for shaking process:
•In order to avoid damage to
the bark, the shaking rod
must always be placed at
approx. 90° to the trunk or
branch.
•When using the HAS 10, it
is also necessary to lubri-
cate several times a day be-
tween the rubber jaws and
the green rubber band with
a food-safe grease (Vase-
line or milking grease).
•When shaking branches,
the 4 support chains are un-
hooked so that the shaking
rod is held by the wire rope
alone.
•Only short shaking periods:
If the fruits fall badly, repeat
this if necessary or shake
the tree crosswise by swiv-
elling the shaking rod.
•Special edition:
The shaking process is started via an electric on-off valve. For this
special edition, hold control lever (“Close gripper”) also in posi-
tion.

13. Driving on public roads.
When transporting the device on public roads, the shaking rod must
always be fixed in the transport bracket (Fig. 8). The transport locking
bolt (Fig. 9) must also be fitted. All chains must always be hooked in
during transport on public roads.
•The transport bracket is
equipped with a polyamide
screw with a predetermined
breaking point. If the square
tube (transport lock) is pulled
out by incorrect operation,
only the fixed polyamide
