INTRODUCTION
- This manual provides information on the use, adjustment and servicing of the CLAAS self-loading forage wagon. Follow the advice on correct maintenance and servicing in order to ensure maximum performance and a long service life of your machine.
- Also, have assembly of your machine and regular inspections carried out by your specialist workshop. Failure to carry out maintenance work, or incorrect operation will result in poor machine efficiency and loss of valuable time.
- By ensuring correct operation, and carrying out maintenance and service work with care, you will be able to make full use of the technical knowledge and the experience with which your self-loading forage wagon has been designed.
GENERAL SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION
INSTRUCTIONS
Basic Rule:
Check that the machine is roadworthy and safe to operate every time it is put into operation!
- Observe the current regulations regarding safety and accident prevention as well as the information in the operator’s manual.
- When using public roads observe all traffic regulations.
- Make yourself familiar with all equipment and controls and their functions before starting work as it will be too late once you have set off.
- Make sure that there is no one in close proximity to the machine before putting it into operation (especially children!). Check that visibility is good, particularly when reversing (have someone direct you if necessary).
- Clothing worn by the operator must be close-fitting. Avoid wearing loose jackets, shirts or ties!
- .Keep the machine clean to prevent fire.
- The machine must not be used to carry passengers.
- If it is necessary to access the machine, the PTO shaft and the tractor engine must be switched off. The ignition key of the tractor must be removed.
- The safety guards must be checked regularly for wear and replaced if necessary.
General
- Use only the recommended fastenings on the machine!
- Do not exceed the maximum support load on the trailer drawbar (the max. permissible hitched weight on the swinging drawbar).
- Use extreme caution when coupling and uncoupling the machine from the tractor to avoid risk of injury.
- Secure the machine against rolling away (parking brake, wheel chocks).
- A risk of injury due to crushing or shearing exists in the vicinity of the 3-point linkage!
- Couple the machine as specified by the instructions. Check the function of the trailer brake system. Observe the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Road performance, steering and braking are all influenced by the self-loading forage wagon and its load. Make sure that there is sufficient steering and braking capacity.
- Make sure no one is between the tractor and the self-loading forage wagon unless the vehicle is secured to prevent it from rolling away with the parking brake and/or wheel chocks.
- The ground speed must always be matched to the conditions. Avoid sudden curves when driving up or downhill or across a slope. Disengage the differential lock when turning. Never disengage the clutch and change gear when going downhill.
- Observe the maximum permissible axle loads and total weights!
- Operate the machine only when all guards are fitted and in the correct position!
- The crop guard is a safety device and should not be removed during operation.
- Ensure that all swivelling parts are secured during transport to prevent dangerous load shifting.
- . The independent brakes must not be used when towing the self-loading forage wagon (lock the pedals).
- With single-axle machines make sure that they do not tip when coupling and uncoupling because of an unevenly distributed load. Sufficient support is required.
- Loaded single-axle machines must not be transported on the support wheel.
- With single-axle machines make sure that the front axle of the tractor is not raised and the steering impaired by the drawbar load. Ensure that the tractor has the approved drawbar load.
- The drawbar height for drawbars with drawbar support must be adjusted by a suitable specialist workshop.
- . Ensure that the machine is stable when parked.
- Risk of injury by crushing or shearing when operating support equipment.
- All equipment must be placed in transport position before driving on the road. Lock the hydraulically operated articulated drawbar.
- Do not stand on the floor conveyor unless the PTO shaft and tractor engine are switched off. 5.3 BA QUANTUM 6800 P / 6500 P / 5500 P-18 / 5500 P-16 / 5500 GT / 5500 P / 4500 P – 299 613.6 Safety Instructions
- Feed and discharge components, such as pick-up, conveyors, metering equipment and discharge rollers, cannot be made completely safe by design because of their function; therefore it is imperative to remain a safe distance from these moving parts while the machine is operating. These instructions also apply for all other auxiliary equipment.
- Do not stand near the discharge area.
- There are dangerous implements under the safety devices that may continue to run after the drive has been switched off. Keep well clear of these devices until they have stopped.
- Always switch off the drive and the engine before carrying out troubleshooting, and for repair, maintenance and cleaning work. Remove the tractor ignition key.
- When working under raised covers make sure that they are sufficiently supported.
- When working with sharp-edged parts such as cutting knives always wear appropriate safety gear (gloves, shoes, etc.).
- Wear safety goggles when sharpening knives.
- Do not stand near hinged covers. 31. Leave safety guards in position and always place them in safe position.
