1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General Safety Instructions
•Before using the machine, always check both it and the tractor for
roadworthiness and operational safety!
•As well as the notes in these instructions the operator is advised to
comply with the generally applicable safety at work regulations and
those relating to use of the public highway!
•The implement may only be operated, maintained and repaired by such per-
sons who have been made acquainted with it and who have been advised
about the dangers!
•When driving on public roads with a raised machine the lifting control lever
should be locked against unintentional lowering!
•The fitted warning and advisory plates give important information for safe op-
eration; adhering to these increases your own security!
•When using public roads adhere to applicable traffic rules!
•The operator should familiarise him-/herself with all controls and their functions
before starting work. During work could be too late!
•The clothing of the operator should fit tight. Avoid wearing any loose clothing!
•To avoid danger of fire keep the implement clean!
•Before beginning to drive check surroundings area (children)!
•Sitting or standing on the implement during operation or during transport is not
permissible.
•Attach implements as advised and only to the stipulated positions!
•Special care should be taken when the implement is coupled to or uncoupled
from the tractor.
•When coupling or uncoupling the implement bring the supporting stands into
the corresponding position (standing safety)!
•Fit weights only to the fixing points provided for that purposes!
•Adhere to the maximum permissible axle loads, total weights and transport
width!
•Fit and check transport gear, road lights and warning guards!
•The release ropes for quick coupler latches should hang freely and in the low-
ered position must not release the quick coupling by themselves.
•Never leave the driver’s seat whilst in motion!
•Handling behaviour, steerability and braking are influenced by mounted imple-
ments, trailers and ballast weights. Check for sufficient steerability and braking!
•When driving round bends note the width of the machine and/or changing cen-
tre of gravity of the implement.
•Put implement into operation only when all guards are fixed in position!
•Never stay or allow anyone to stay within the operating area!
•Never stay in the turning and slew area of the implement!
•Do not operate any hydraulic controls while anybody is in the operating area!
•On all pivoting parts actuated by power assistance (e.g. hydraulics) exists dan-
ger of injury by bruising and crushing!
5
•Before leaving the tractor lower the machine to the ground. Apply the parking
brake, stop the engine and remove the ignition key!
•Do not allow anybody between the tractor and implement if the parking brakes
are not applied!
Attached implements
•Before mounting or dismounting implements on/from the three-point linkage,
move the raise / lower control to the position at which accidental raising or low-
ering cannot take place!
•In the case of three-point linkage mounting, ensure that the tractor balls and
the mounting pins of the implement are of the same category!
•There is the risk of injury from pinch and shear points in the three-point linkage
area!
•When operating the external lift controls for the three-point linkage, do not
stand between the tractor and implement!
•Always ensure sufficient lateral limitation for the three-point linkage of the
tractor in the transport position of the implement!
•When driving on roads with the implement raised, the raise/lower control must
be locked to prevent lowering!
Hydraulic equipment
•The hydraulic pipes are under pressure!
•When connecting hydraulic rams, the pipes must be connected as directed!
•Always release hydraulic pressure from both tractor and implement before
coupling!
•When connecting hydraulic pipes to the tractor ensure that incorrect use is
avoided. If the connections are reversed, the opposite function is carried out
(e.g. raising/lowering) and there is a risk of accidents!
•Regularly check the hydraulic pipes and replace them in the event of damage
or signs of ageing. The replacement pipes must comply with the technical
specification as laid down by Lemken!
•When searching for leaks appropriate aids should be used because of the
danger of injury!
•Hydraulic oil escaping at high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause seri-
ous injury! When injured see a doctor immediately! Danger of infection!
•Before working on any hydraulic equipment - lower all imple-
ments/attachments, release hydraulic pressure where possible and switch off
the tractor engine!
Power take-off shaft operation
•Only drive shafts stipulated by the manufacturer may be used!
6
•Both halves of the protective tube of the PTO shaft must be anchored to pre-
vent rotation - and be in working order!
•At PTO shafts always see to the advised tube overlapping in transport- and
working position!
•Fit and remove the PTO shaft only when the power take-off drive is discon-
nected, the engine is switched off and the ignition key has been removed!
•Always ensure the correct assembly and safety of the PTO shaft!
•Prevent PTO guard from spinning by fixing the provided chain to a nearby
static part!
•Before engaging the power take-off drive, ensure that the selected speed of
the tractor’s power take-off shaft matches the permissible speed of the power
harrow!
•When using the speed-related PTO shaft take into account that the PTO speed
depends on the driving speed and that the turning direction is reversed when
driving backwards!
•Before engaging the power take-off drive, ensure that nobody is standing in the
hazard area of the power harrow!
•Never connect the power take-off shaft when the engine is switched on!
•When working with the power take-off shaft, nobody must stand in the area of
the rotating power take-off shaft.
•Always disengage the power take-off drive if excessive angular displacements
occur.
•Caution: After disengaging the power take-off drive, the rotors take a few sec-
onds to come to rest. Do not approach the power harrow too closely during this
time. Work must not be carried out upon it until it comes to a complete stand-
still!
•Clean, lubricate or adjust the appliance driven by the power take-off shaft only
when the power take-off shaft is disconnected, the engine is switched off and
the ignition key has been removed!
•Retain the uncoupled PTO shaft on the mount provided!
•After removing the PTO shaft replace the screw-on guard over the tractor PT0.
•In the event of damage, rectify it prior to continuation of work.
Maintenance
•Repair-, maintenance- and cleaning operations as well as adjustments and
remedy of function faults should principally be conducted with engine stopped
and brakes applied. Remove ignition key!
•Check and tighten nuts and bolts regularly!
•When conducting maintenance work on a lifted implement always place suit-
able supports underneath!
•For replacing any tools with cutting edges always use suitable tools and
gloves!
•Dispose of old oils, grease and filters as prescribed by law.
7
•Before working on the electric gear disconnect battery cables!
•When conducting electrical welding operations on the tractor or on the
mounted implement remove cable from the generator and the battery!
•Any spare parts fitted must meet with the implement manufacturer’s fixed tech-
nical standards! This is for example ensured by using genuine spare parts!
