2.1.1 Very important
To prevent hazardous situations, the instructions in this
manual must be read and complied with by all persons
who carry out or inspect this assembly operation.
Pay particular attention to the sections "On safety“ in
the operator's manuals for the machine and the front
attachment.
Use of parts, accessories and ancillary equipment that
are not supplied directly by CLAAS and have not been
tested and released by CLAAS can negatively affect
the performance characteristics of the CLAAS

may thus impair active and / or passive safety while
driving and working (accident prevention).
CLAAS cannot be held liable for any damage to the
extent that it is caused by use of non-original CLAAS
parts, accessories and ancillary equipment.
