OPERATION

If the loader valve controls fail to functions properly discontinue use of the tractor and loader until the controls are properly repaired. Sudden or unexpected movement or dropping of the loader and attachment could result in serious injury.

Make sure all air is purged from the hydraulic system before using the loader. Air in the system can cause the loader to respond sluggishly or with unexpected movement. The air can be purged from the cylinder lines by fully cycling the cylinders several times from the fully closed to fully open position. Sudden or unexpected movement or dropping of the loader and attachment could result in serious injury.

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.

Always have a heavy attachment, such as a bucket mounted on loader when it is removed from tractor.

It is important not to put excessive weight on parking stands with lift cylinder retraction. Damage may result.

THE OPERATOR MUST COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND HOW TO OPERATE THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT AND ALL CONTROLS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE. The operator must read and understand the Safety and Operation Sections of the implement and tractor operator’s manuals. These manuals must be read and explained to any operator who cannot read. Never allow someone to operate the implement and tractor without complete operating instructions.

Before starting any operation, the operator must become familiar with the area to be worked in and any obstacles and hazards contained within to ensure safety to the operator, bystanders, and equipment. Special attention should be paid to foreign debris, rough terrain, steep slopes, and passersby and animals in the area. OPS-L-0033
