2. To the operator
1. Use adequate ramps to load or unload the equipment. Do not make the
loading on ditch banks, it can cause a serious accidents.
2. When lifting with a hoist, use the appropriate points to lift.
3. Fasten the moving parts that may get loose and cause accidents.
4. Underpin the equipment appropriately.
5. Use chock blocks and safety chains to secure the equipment to the truck or
trailer during the transport.
6. Stay away from the straps, cables or chains that are working under load.
7. Make sure the SMV (Slow moving vehicle) sign, and all the lights and
reflectors that are required by the local highway and transport autorithies are
in place, are clean and can be seen clearly by all overtaking and oncoming
traffic.
8. After 8 to 10 km transporting, please inspect the load condition. Repeat this
procedure every 80 to 100 km. Give more attention when transporting the
equipment on rough roads, slopes and other adverse conditions.
9. Always be careful with the load height, especially when passing under
electrical power lines, bridges and others.
10.Check all laws and regulations regarding the height limits and load width
while transporting the equipment on truck or trailer. If necessary use banners,
lights and other devices to give adequate warning to the other drivers.
Marchesan does not advise the equipment traffic on highways, because this practice
involves serious security risks in addition to being prohibited by the current existing traffic
law. The transportation for long distances should be done on truck, trailer or others by
following these safety guidelines:

2. To the operator
Working safety standards
It is important to have knowledge not only about the functioning, operation of the
equipment and its technology, but also the working legal aspects when using the equipment,
such as: safety standards, operator's manual and working safety. The equipment and tools
used on the rural area must be properly handled, otherwise health and safety of involved
personnel may be compromised.
The operator must be capable and authorized to operate the tractor, meaning that that
person must comprehend the functioning instructions of the tractor and know about the
safety standards regarding the job that will be performed.
The Ministry of Labor and Employment created safety standards that aim to decrease
the risk of accidents that may occur to the rural worker. Related to the subject of agicultural
machines and equipments, we specifically cited the NR 06, NR 12, NR 17 and NR 31
standards.
Regulatory Standard - NR 06:
• For purposes of applying this Regulatory Standard, personal protective equipment
(PPE) is considered any device or product that is worn by an individual worker for protection
against risks that could threaten safety and health at work.
Regulatory Standard - NR 12:
• This Regulatory Standard and its annexes provide technical references, basic
principles and protective measures to ensure the health and physical integrity of workers
and establishes minimum requirements for the prevention of accidents and occupational
diseases in the design stages and use of machinery and equipment of all kinds, and also to
its manufacture, importation, trading, exhibition and cession in any way. It is understood as
using phase the construction, transportation, assembly, installation, adjustment, operation,
cleaning, maintenance, inspection, disabling and dismantling of machinery or equipment.
Regulatory Standard - NR 17:
• The purpose of this Regulatory Standard is to establish parameters for the adaption
of the working conditions to the psycho-physiological characteristics of the workers in order
to provide maximum comfort, safety and efficient performance.
• The working conditions include the aspects of lifting, carrying and unloading materials,
furnitures, equipments and environmental conditions of the job and the organization of
work itself.
Regulatory Standard - NR 31:
• This Regulatory Standard has the purpose to establish the precept to be applied on
the organization and on the working environment, in order to make compatible the planning
and development of agriculture, livestock, forestry, forest exploration and aquaculture with
safety on the working environment.

The equipment has adequate lifting points, being two located on the moving support
and one on the right and left frames. When lifting with the help of a hoist, it is essential to
hitch the cables to all of these points.
2. To the operator
Lifting points
- Only CAPABLE and AUTHORIZED personnel should carry out the equipment
movimentation.
- Note every condition of each PPE, such as the foot protection, safety glasses,
safety helmet, protective gloves and other PPE as required.
- Use chains, of at least 3 meters long, to lift the equipment safely.
- Use the adequate points for lifting and be sure that the equipment is safe. Avoid
accidents.
- Always isolate the area where the lifting and components movimentation will be
carried out. Always keep a safe distance from the equipment.
ATTENTION! RISK OF ACCIDENT

The safety decals warn about the equipment points that require more attention and
they should be kept in good repair. If these decals become damaged or illegible, replace
them. Marchesan provides decals, upon request and indication of the respective serial

The PD and PCA front loaders were designed to help in several types of job. The
PCA PLUS model has a pantographic structure which assures the load leveling during
movimentation, mainly when it goes along with the front loader or front blade.
It works on coffee fields, water containment dikes and also to move and carry limestone,
fertilizer and earth.
The main feature of this equipment is the simplicity and the easy-coupling or uncoupling
from the tractor.
It can be provided with BT SC, BT CD JS S/ AR or BT CD JS AR systems:
- BT SC (Tractor pump without control valve): this system uses the pump and the control
valve from the tractor.
- BT CD JS S/ AR (Tractor pump with double control valve with joystick without quick
activation): this system uses the pump and the control valve along with the joystick
coupled to the tractor and without quick activation.
- BT CD JS AR (Tractor pump with double control valve with joystick and quick activation):
this system uses the same components as mentioned on the previous setting, but with
quick actication included.
- SHT (Tatu hydraulic system): it uses a pump with independent sprcoekts, oil reservoir
with complete filtering system and double or triple control valve.
- The Load Sense system was developed where the tractor control valve has its center
closed, where is necessary to use an especific control valve.
3. Data sheet
Intended use of the equipment
Prohibited use of the equipment
1. To avoid damages, serious accidents or death, it is prohibited to allow that any
people get close or under the equipment, on areas where the load can fall over or
near the up and down movements of the moving support and also the equipment
movimentation area.
2. The equipment must not be used by an inexperienced operator or one that do not
know every conduction, operation and command controlling techniques.
