Equipment Operation Safety Instructions and Practices

Never leave the Tractor and Implement unattended while the Implement is in the lifted position. Accidental operation of lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause sudden drop of unit with injury or death by crushing. To properly park the implement when disconnecting it from the tractor, lower the stand and put the retaining pin securely in place, or put a secure support under the A-Frame. Lower the implement carefully to the ground. Do not put hands or feet under lifted components. (S3PT-1)

This Implement may be wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard rails, concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the Implement and Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious injury, or even death. Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles. (S3PT-12)

Use extreme caution when raising the Mower head. Stop the Blades from turning when the Mower Head is raised and passersby are within 300 feet. Raising the Mower head exposes the Cutting Blades which creates a potentially serious hazard and can cause serious injury by objects thrown from the Blades or by contact with the Blades. (SBM-2)

Never Leave the mower unattended while the head is in the raised position. The mower could fall causing serious injury to anyone who might inadvertently be under the mower. (SBM-4)

Always keep a careful lookout and use extreme care when working around overhead obstructions. Never allow the Mower head or boom within 10 feet of any power line. When working close to overhead power lines consult your electric company for a safe code of operation.

(SBM-7)

The center of Gravity of Tractors equipped with a Rear-Mounted Boom Mower is shifted to the rear and removes weight from the front wheels. Add front ballast until at least 20% of the tractors weight is on the front wheels to prevent rearing up, loss of steering control, and possibly

injury. (SBM-10)

The Mower shaft speed must not - UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES - exceed 1800 RPM.

(SBM-15)

Use extreme care and Safety Awareness when using the boom mower head to mulch loose brush or wood that has fallen on the ground from overhead trimming. DO NOT mulch this debris if bystanders, vehicles, livestock or buildings are within 300 feet of the mower. This

cut debris can be thrown at great velocities and could result in serious injury or even death. (SBM-17)
