OPERATION

The operator is responsible for the safe operation of the snowblower. The operator must be properly trained. Operators should be familiar with the tractor, snowblower, and all safety practices before starting operation. Read through safety rules and decals on page 5 through page 9.

„Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment and power unit manuals; follow all safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace- ment manuals and safety decals are available from your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check the Dealer Locator at www.WoodsEquipment.com, or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319- 6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can result in serious injury or death.

„Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach- ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instructions.

„Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.

„Do not allow bystanders in the area when oper- ating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servic- ing equipment.

„Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.

„Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and secured. Never place any part of the body under- neath equipment or between moveable parts even when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or movement of control levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpect- edly and cause severe injury or death. Follow Oper- ator's Manual instructions for working underneath and blocking requirements or have work done by a qualified dealer.

„Keep bystanders away from equipment.

„Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all moving parts.

„Never place hands or body into discharge chute or auger to unclog. Stored energy can cause auger to quickly rotate when unclogging occurs and cause severe injury or amputation. Stop engine,

remove key, disconnect driveline, and carefully unclog, using a sturdy piece of wood.

„Keep hands and body away from pressurized lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles. Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate skin and will cause serious injury or death.

„Make sure that all operating and service person- nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it must be surgically removed as soon as possible by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan- grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-

TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.

„Before dismounting power unit or performing any service or maintenance, follow these steps: disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point hitch and all raised components to the ground, operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pres- sure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key, and unfasten seat belt.

„Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.

„Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM. Do not exceed.

„Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.

„If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.

„Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.

NOTICE

■Be sure to complete the Pre-Operation Check List on page 15 prior to operating this Snowblower.

PRINCIPAL COMPONENTS

The snowblower has three main operating compo- nents. A 15" diameter auger dislodges the snow and carries it to a central fan. The snow is then discharged by the fan and directed away from the blower through a controllable spout.

These models range in width from 54 inches to 84 inches, allowing for versatility in handling various tasks, whether you're maintaining a small garden or clearing a large lot. The difference in size also caters to different tractor sizes and horsepower ratings, making it easier for users to select a rake that fits their specific requirements.

A notable feature of the SB series is its durable construction. Built from high-strength steel, these rakes can withstand rigorous use in various environments. The rakes are further equipped with heavy-duty tines that are engineered to be resilient against breakage while providing optimal soil leveling and debris clearing performance.

The SB rakes utilize a patented Quick-Tatch mounting system. This system allows for fast and easy attachment and detachment from tractors, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity. Additionally, the rakes can be adjusted to various angles, enabling users to efficiently handle different tasks such as grading, levelling, or scarifying soil.

One of the key characteristics of the SB64S, SB74S, SB54S, and SB84S models is their ergonomic design. The rakes are built with user-friendly controls that facilitate operation. Operators can change the angle and height with ease, which contributes to overall efficiency while reducing the physical strain typically associated with manual adjustments.

The rakes also feature a heavy-duty frame that supports consistent performance across various job conditions, whether working on flat ground or uneven terrains. Enhanced stability during operation means users can trust that the rake will provide uniform results without compromising the integrity of the landscape.

Another technological advantage of the SB series is its versatility in compatible attachment options, which allows users to employ the rake for various applications beyond standard landscaping, including gravel leveling and road maintenance.
