OPERATION

OPERATION

The operator is responsible for the safe operation of this equipment. The operator must be properly trained. Operators should be familiar with the equipment, the tractor, and all safety practices before starting opera- tion. Read the safety rules and safety decals, page 5 through page 8.

The box scrapers and rear blades are designed for a wide range of applications: scarifying, scraping, level- ing, grading, and backfilling.

„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.

„Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.

„Keep bystanders away from equipment.

„NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. Never place any part of the body underneath equipment or between moveable parts even when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak-down, hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or movement of control levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe injury or death.

Service work does not require going under- neath.

Read Operator's Manual for service instruc- tions or have service performed by a qualified dealer.

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

CONNECTING ATTACHMENTS CAUTION

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

„Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught 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.
