OPERATION

OPERATION

Carry bales as low to the ground as possible to allow maximum visibility and avoid tipping.

7.7 Valve Lock

Before transporting the tractor and Loader engage the loader valve travel lock to prevent inadvertent contact with the joystick controller causing sudden dropping of the loader and attachment. If the loader attachment, such as a bucket, were to drop suddenly and hit the ground while transporting, the tractor could stop immediately resulting in the operator hitting the steering wheel or flying our of the operator’s seat. Serious injury could result.

To avoid injury from crushing, do not utilize the valve lock for machine maintenance or repair. The valve lock is designed to prevent accidental actuation when the loader is not in use or during transport.

To avoid injury during installation of loader, do not allow bystanders within 10 feet of loader or attachment.

Always have a heavy attachment, such as a bucket mounted on loader when it is removed from tractor.

It is important not to put excessive weight on parking stands with lift cylinder retraction. Damage may result.
