Power diagram, hydraulic
Please use the diagram below to assess whether your vehicle has enough hydraulic power availa-
ble.
1. Add the power specifications of all options present on your machine.
2. Be aware of the information concerning the hydraulics of your vehicle.
As a rule, the hydraulic power of your vehicle that is available for additional
implements, is considerably lower than the engine power.
3. Enter the information in the table below: Example: maximum hydraulic pressure
on the vehicle 150 bar. Oil volumetric flow of 40 l/min. equals a maximum hy-
draulic power of 8.8 kW.

Instructions for the owner
Qualifications of personnel
Installation and maintenance tasks involving safety-relevant parts must only be executed by per-
sonnel with the following qualifications:
•They must have a technical education, such as agricultural machine mechanic, auto me-
chanic, etc.
•Persons without qualified training must be supervised by a person with qualified training.
•They must have read and understood this operating manual.
•They must be aware of the relevant safety regulations (accident prevention).
Accident prevention
The safety regulations and accident prevention regulations are legally regulated in every country.
The workshop manager or the appointed specialist for occupational health and safety is responsi-
ble for compliance with the valid regulations.
Instruction
At transfer of the implement the owner receives instruction in the operation and maintenance of the
implement from the sales partner.
The owner must ensure that operating and maintenance personnel have been instructed in full
scope in the operation and maintenance of the implement.
Warning signs
Warning signs indicate hazards that cannot be countered through protective measures. To avoid
severe or fatal injuries the warning signs must always be obeyed.
Missing warning signs must be replaced without delay.
Do not operate the implement if the warning signs are missing.
You can order the warning signs by specifying the spare parts numbers listed
in section 4.5.2 (no. V000...).
General warning signs
In this section the non-specific, generally-valid warning signs are explained.
Read the operating manual and comply with the safety notices.

Lubricating point
Safety devices
There are various safety devices on machines to protect people when working with a machine, or
who are in the direct vicinity of the machine, to prevent premature wear, and also to prevent envi-
ronmental damage. These safety devices are a fixed component of the machine and must not be
manipulated or removed. Missing or damaged safety devices must be replaced without delay.
Concerning the safety devices, a distinction is made between protective devices that prevent con-
tact with a danger point, and safety notices that alert to a hazard on the machine.
Likewise, hazards can occur through insufficient maintenance; consequently the maintenance in-
structions must also be classified as safety notices

Each time before starting to drive, ensure that all described safety notices
and protective devices are completely present and functional. Do not operate
the implement if safety notices or safety devices are missing or damaged.
