OPERATION

9.1 Foreign Debris Hazards / Overhead Obstructions

An area to be cut must first be inspected for objects that could be thrown or that could damage the machine. Walk through the area looking for fences, boulder, rocks, culverts, stumps or metal objects. Mark the inspected area with flags. If the area is dense and cannot be walked thoroughly it may be necessary to inspect a smaller area as well as possible, then trim away the part that has been inspected and can safely be removed. Walk each new area again and repeat the inspection before cutting more away. Repeat as often as necessary until the area is cleared. It can be damaging and/or dangerous to work the cutter in an area that had not been visually inspected.

Place DANGER signs at least 300 feet beyond the perimeter of the area to be worked, not just 300 feet from where the machine started operating! It is convenient in many cases to work in 300 foot sections. Move the first Danger sign to the beginning of the freshly cleared area, place it, then take the first cutting area flag up to the end of the freshly cleared area 300 feet away. Walk and inspect the next 300 feet and place the second cutting area flag. Pick up the second DANGER sign, and take it a further 300 feet along the road or trail. Note that in many cases the DANGER area will extend in front of and behind the machine as well as along each side. Post signs accordingly.

WARNING! Use extreme care and Safety Awareness when using the boom mower head to mulch loose brush or wood that has fallen on the ground from overhead trimming. DO NOT mulch this debris if bystanders, vehicles, livestock or buildings are within 300 feet of the mower. This cut debris can be thrown at great velocities and could result in serious injury or even death.

DANGER! Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects such as gravel, rocks, wire, and other debris. Inspect the area before mowing. Foreign objects should be removed from the site to prevent machine damage and/or bodily injury or even death. Any objects that cannot be removed must be clearly marked and carefully avoided by the operator. Stop mowing immediately if blades strike a foreign object. Repair all damage and make certain the blade carrier is

balanced before resuming mowing. (SGM-5)

DANGER! Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become entangled in the operating parts of the Mower head. These items could then swing outside the housing at greater velocities than the blades. Such a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or even death. Inspect the cutting area for such objects before mowing. Remove any like object from the site. Never allow the cutting blades to contact such items. (SGM-6)

DANGER! Always keep a careful lookout and use extreme care when working around overhead obstructions. Never allow the Mower head or boom within 10 feet of any power line. When working close to overhead power lines consult your electric company for a safe code of operation.

RBF-19C specifications

The Tiger RBF-19C is a remarkable example of advanced unmanned aerial technology, designed primarily for reconnaissance and battlefield surveillance. This drone has garnered attention for its exceptional capabilities and cutting-edge features that make it a valuable asset for military and defense operations.

One of the standout characteristics of the RBF-19C is its high-altitude endurance. The drone is engineered to operate at significant elevations, which allows it to cover vast terrains while remaining undetected. With a maximum altitude capability of 20,000 feet, it can conduct prolonged missions, gathering intelligence over hostile areas without risking human pilots.

Under the hood, the Tiger RBF-19C incorporates advanced sensor technologies that enable it to deliver real-time data. Equipped with high-definition cameras, multispectral sensors, and infrared technology, it can capture detailed images and videos even in adverse weather conditions and low-light environments. This capability significantly enhances situational awareness for ground forces, making decision-making faster and more efficient.

Another notable feature of the RBF-19C is its extended operational range. The drone can maintain a communication link over distances exceeding 200 kilometers, enabling it to operate far beyond the frontline. This extended range allows for strategic reconnaissance missions, providing vital intelligence without exposing personnel to danger.

In terms of maneuverability, the Tiger RBF-19C is designed for versatility. It features a robust flight control system that allows for nimble navigation in complex environments. The drone can perform various flight patterns, including loitering and waypoint navigation, which is particularly useful for surveillance missions where constant observation of a target is crucial.

Moreover, the RBF-19C is built with a modular design, allowing for quick modifications and upgrades to suit different mission requirements. This adaptability ensures that it can be easily retrofitted with new technology or payloads, keeping it relevant amidst rapidly evolving warfare tactics.

Lastly, the RBF-19C is renowned for its stealth capabilities. Designed with a low radar cross-section and noise-reduction technologies, it minimizes its visibility to enemy radar systems, enabling covert operations. This attribute is essential for missions that require undetected data gathering.

In conclusion, the Tiger RBF-19C represents a significant advancement in drone technology, combining endurance, advanced sensors, extended range, and stealth. Its sophisticated design and operational capabilities make it an invaluable tool for modern military forces, enhancing their ability to carry out reconnaissance and maintain situational awareness on the battlefield.
