SAFETY RULES

ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

(Safety Rules continued from previous page)

Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic oper- ation and allows loads or equipment components to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance, purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all hydraulic functions several times. Do this before putti ng into service or allowing anyone to approach the equipment.

OPERATION

Keep bystanders away from equipment.

Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.

Never direct discharge toward people, animals, or property.

Full chain shielding, designed to reduce the possibility of thrown objects, must be installed when operating in populated areas or other areas where thrown objects could injure people or dam- age property. If this machine is not equipped with full chain shielding, operation must be stopped when anyone comes within 300 feet.

Do not operate or transport equipment while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all moving parts.

Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.

Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.

Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS systems in “locked up” position at all times.

Always sit in power unit seat when operating controls or starting engine. Securely fasten seat belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake, and ensure all other controls are disengaged before starting power unit engine.

Operate tractor PTO at 540 RPM. Do not exceed.

Look down and to the rear and make sure area is clear before operating in reverse.

Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

Do not stop, start, or change directions sud- denly on slopes.

Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on slopes and rough terrain.

Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation.

Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before resuming operation.

TRANSPORTATION

Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.

The maximum transport speed for towed and semi-mounted machines is 20 mph (32 km/h). Regardless of the maximum speed capability of the towing tractor, do not exceed the implement’s max- imum transport speed. Doing so could result in:

•Loss of control of the implement and tractor

•Reduced or no ability to stop during braking

•Implement tire failure

•Damage to the implement or its components.

Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.

Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.

Do not operate PTO during transport.

Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

Do not operate or transport equipment while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Never tow this implement with a motor vehicle.

MAINTENANCE

Before performing any service or maintenance, lower equipment to ground or block securely, turn off engine, remove key, and disconnect driveline from tractor PTO.

Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to modify or alter the equipment or any of its compo- nents in any way.

Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.

Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked and secured. Never place any part of the body under- neath equipment or between moveable parts even
