ALAMO INDUSTRIAL MACHETE BOOM MOWER

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Alamo Industrial MACHETE Booms are manufactured with quality material by skilled workers. The MACHETE Boom is designed to attach to a tractor and operate various heads for a wide range of vegetative maintenance applications. The boom and heads are equipped with safety warning decals, protective deflectors, shields, and other safety features to provide operator and passerby protection, however, no shielding is 100% accurate. ALL safety equipment and safety warning decals must be maintained on the unit in good operational condition at all times.

It is the operator’s responsibility to be knowledgeable of all potential operating hazards and to take every reasonable precaution to ensure oneself, others, animals, and property are not injured or damaged by the boom unit, tractor or a thrown object. Do not operate the boom and attached head if bystanders, passersby, pets or livestock are within 300 feet of the unit.

This section of the Operator’s Manual is designed to familiarize, instruct, and educate operators to the safe and proper use of the boom and attached head.
