SAFETY

Do not use an attachment that is not securely attached to the quick hitch, The attachment could fall resulting in severe crushing injuries or death to the operator or bystanders.

•Rotate both hitch pin levers down to the locked position. You should feel a firm resistance when locking the levers down. The pins must extend through the slots in the bottom of the attachment bracket.

•Examine the fit between the quick hitch and the bottom of the attachment bracket. The pins must extend through the slots in the bottom of the attachment bracket. The tapered side of each pin must be firmly wedged against the surface of the slot on the bottom of the attachment bracket. The attachment bucket should fit snugly against the bottom of the quick hitch bracket. If there is a gap of more than 1/8” or if the pins are not firmly seated do not use the attachment. Contact your dealer before using the attachment.

•On level ground, tilt the attachment down 90° degrees and lower it to the ground. Lower the loader further to slightly raise the front of the tractor off the ground. Drive the tractor in reverse while the attachment is on the ground for 20-30 feet to ensure the attachment does not disconnect. If the attachment disconnects during this process, discontinue the use of the attachment and contact your dealer.

NEVER walk or work under or allow any person to be underneath a raised loader or attachment. (SL-15)

Do not operate the loader from the ground. Operate the tractor and loader only while seated in the tractor seat with the seatbelt fastened. The loader could fall crushing a person resulting in serious injury or death.

Use extreme care when piling material above 6 feet high. Material could shift and fall onto the operator or bystanders. The material could crush or suffocate the operator or bystander resulting in serious injury or death.

Know before you DIG. Call 888-258-0808 and request that all buried utilities locations be identified before digging in unfamiliar ground. Do not let the loader or attachment contact buried electrical power lines, utilities or gas lines. Contact with electrical power lines can result in serious bodily injury or electrocution. If the loader contacts a power line, remain in the tractor seat until the power has been shut off. Stepping off the tractor can permit electrical current to pass through the body resulting in electrocution.
