OPERATION
Do not raise the loader on a hillside. Do not transport across a slope with a raised loader. When the loader is raised, the center of gravity of the tractor and loader is raised increasing the potential for the tractor to tip over. Tractor wheel contact with any wash out, drop off or the ground obstruction with a raised loader could result in the tractor tipping over and causing serious bodily injury.
Do not operate or raise the loader near the edge of a ditch or where loose soil can give way and allow the tractor to tip over. Keep the tractor tires away from loose soil or the edge of a drop off. Always wear your seatbelt when operating the loader to reduce the possibility of serious injury from a tractor tip over or roll over.
The Boom is designed only to position and operate the Bucket which is attached to it. Never attempt to lift, pull, or push other solid objects with the boom or bucket. Serious injury could result from a structural failure when the Boom is used for purposes other than those for which it was designed.
Operate the Tractor and/or Implement controls only while properly seated in the Tractor seat with the seat belt securely fastened around you. Inadvertent movement of the Tractor or Implement may cause serious injury or death.
DO NOT operate this Implement on a Tractor that is not properly maintained. Should a mechanical or Tractor control failure occur while operating, immediately shut down the Tractor and perform repairs before resuming operation. Serious injury and possible death could occur from not maintaining this Implement and Tractor in good operating condition.
(SG-36)
Do Not operate this equipment in areas where insects such as bees may attack you and/or cause you to lose control of the equipment. If you must enter in such areas, use a tractor with an enclosed Cab and close the windows to prevent insects from entering. If a tractor cab is not available, wear suitable clothing including head, face, and hand protection to shield you from the insects. Attacking insects can cause you to lose control of the tractor, which can result in serious injury or death to you or bystanders. Never dismount a moving tractor.
Keep bystanders 10 feet away from the tractor and loader while operating. The bystanders could enter the path of the tractor or items could fall from the loader resulting in serious injury to the bystander.
Use extra care when turning or stopping. Allow for increased length and weight of added loader. The loader adds five to six feet of length in front of the tractor and significant weight. Allow extra distance when stopping or turning. Do not allow loader or attachment to contact solid objects.
