Risk management is the process of finding out what may cause an injury, deciding what may happen as a result, and doing something about it.

The steps of risk management are: • Identify the hazards to workplace health and safety arising from work activities • Assess the risks

• Determine and implement control measures to reduce risk • Monitor and review the effectiveness of the control measures IDENTIFYING HAZARDS

Prior to commencing work, all hazards related to the work tasks should be identified. The selection of the appropriate work procedure(s) will depend on the type of work procedure(s) and hazards involved. Regular safety inspections will also identify hazards and ensure that control measures are in place. RISK ASSESSMENT Risk assessment allows appropriate control measures to be developed. Once hazards have been identified, they should be assessed in terms of their potential to do harm. To assess risk, consideration should be given to probability and consequences. ( SEE RISK ASSESSMENT SCORE CHART - Pg 9 ) RISK CONTROL Risk control is the process of eliminating or reducing risk factors. Control measures should be chosen and implemented to eliminate or reduce risk as far as practicable. When deciding on the most appropriate measures to use, practicality and acceptance of the control measures should be considered. Safe Working Procedures will be developed for all high – medium risk hazards. MONITOR AND REVIEW CONTROL MEASURES The risk identification, assessment and control process requires regular monitoring to ensure the implemented control measures perform as originally intended and continue to prevent or adequately control the risk of injury or incident. Control measures should also be checked carefully to ensure that new hazards are not created, directly or indirectly, by the original control measures.

DAILY MAINTENANCE CHECK FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE

Disc bolts - Check first 10hrs of operation

BEFORE STARTING WORK:

1. Check all pivot pins are fastened and anchor bolts are correctly tensioned. 2. For field operation: Re-tension after 1st, 5th, then every 50 hours of operation. 3. For road travel re-tension first 3 miles (5kms), 10 miles (15kms), and thereafter at 25 miles (40kms) intervals. 4. Check discs and disc bolt tension to specified torque 250ft/lb / 340Nm. 5. Check for damaged, worn and fatigued parts. Have machine repaired if necessary. 6. Ensure all appropriate safety decals are securely attached to machine. Pgs 13-18 7. Check all safety mechanisms are in place and operating correctly. 8. Lubricate rear roller bearings. Pg 31 9. Instruction manual has been read, understood and stored with machine.

The disc positioning system is used for maximum soil disturbance, reduced ridging and weed control. Adjustment can also be made to compensate for disc wear. ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE *NB - Be sure machine is tracking in line before attempting to make this adjustment. Pg 25 • Start with factory settings. Pg 27 • To remove any ridges, test run at normal operating speed and stop quickly. • Check for ridges of undug soil. Follow ridges into machine and identify which direction to adjust. See diagrams on this page • Only adjust front sideways in small increments ½” or 12mm. • Re-check in hard soils as jump arms tend to flex more. Remember, Full ground disturbance starts at 2 ½” 60mm

MAINTENANCE & SAFETY

• Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble. • Make sure maintenance area has plenty of ventilation. Beware exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation. • Prior to commencing work, IDENTIFY ALL HAZARDS! Use control measures to eliminate these dangers. • Use blocks to support frame of machine on level area free of obstruction. • Always use a safety support and chock the wheels. • Never use only an implement jack to support the machine when doing maintenance. • Never work under raised machine unless all components are securely positioned and locked. • Engage all safety transport locks, chock wheels and front drawbar for temporary service if machine is in free standing mode. • A fire extinguisher and first aid kits should be kept readily accessible while performing maintenance on this equipment. • Follow the torque chart in this manual when tightening bolts and nuts. • Refer to bolt torque chart for head identification marking. • Always replace bolts with specified grades. • Where replacement parts are necessary for periodic maintenance and servicing, genuine factory replacement parts must be used to restore your equipment to original specifications, • Always use approved lifting equipment. • If equipment has been altered in any way from original design, the manufacturer does not accept any liability for warranty or personal injury. • Replace all shields and guards after servicing before moving. • After servicing, be sure all tools, parts and service equipment are removed. • The machine is identified by the serial number on the metal plate on the machine. When requesting spare parts or maintenance service, please indicate themodel and number of your equipment to ensure prompt and efficient attention.

• K-Line Agriculture spare parts and accessories have been specifically designed and developed for the machines produced. We would call your attention to the fact that non- genuine parts and accessories are not recommended by K-Line.
