OPERATION

OPERATION

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.

Do not use loader as a jack to raise the tractor tires off the ground. The loader could fail causing the tractor and loader to fall to the ground resulting in serious injury.

Use extreme care when loading, transporting or dumping loads that impair or partially block the operator’s line of sight. Know where you are traveling. Make sure no bystanders are in the area of travel. If a bystander assists in providing guidance, make sure they are not in the path of travel. Keep all bystanders 25 feet away from travel path.

Always look behind you before backing up. Make sure you are looking in the direction of travel. A bystander could walk behind the tractor. Running into a bystander can result in serious injury or death.

Some tractors are equipped with a “Super Steer” front axle. When a loader is mounted to this type of tractor, the bucket will shift in the opposite direction from which the wheels are turned. Maximum shift will be approximately 8 inches and most noticeable when the tractor is stationary. Sudden or unexpected movement of the loader and attachment could result in serious injury to the operator or bystanders.

(SL-33)

Operate the tractor and loader only in conditions where you have clear visibility in daylight or with adequate artificial lighting. Never operate in darkness or foggy conditions where you cannot clearly see at least 100 feet in front and to the sides of the tractor. Make sure you can clearly see bystanders, ditches, steep slopes, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, and debris or obstruction in the travel path. If you are unable to clearly see these types of items discontinue operating. Contact with unseen vehicles, bystanders, obstructions, or drop-offs can cause serious injury.
