Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can have sufficient force to cause injury. Keep all hoses and connections in
good serviceable condition. Failure to heed may result in serious personal injury or death. Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving the pressure before disconnecting lines or performing work on the system. Make sure hydraulic fluid connections are tight and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in good condition before applying pressure to the system. Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for suspected leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems. DO NOT DELAY! If an accident occurs, see a doctor familiar with this type of injury immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin or eyes must be treated within a few hours or gangrene may result.

Front Disc Gang Lateral Positioning
*NB - Be sure machine is tracking in line before attempting to make this adjustment page 19- 20.
The Disc positioning system is used for maximum soil disturbance and reduced ridging. Adjustment can be made for more precise weed control, soil disturbance and to compensate for disc wear. Start with factory settings Test run at normal operating speed and stop quickly. Check for ridges of undug soil. (follow ridge into machine) For ridges where front and rear discs throw away from each other see figure 19 at point (A), front gang should be adjusted to the right. Figure 20 shows correct adjustment to remove ridge. For ridges where front and rear discs throw towards each other see figure 19 at point (B), front gang should be adjusted to the left. Only adjust in small increments ½” or 12mm Re-check in hard soils as jump arms tend to flex more.

Performing Maintenance
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 an implement jack to support the machine. 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 kit 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. 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 the model 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.

RISK MANAGEMENT
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 MODEL. 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.
