SAFETY RULES

ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act.

In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.

It has been said “The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that kind of operator.

INSTALLATION

Hydraulics must be connected as instructed in this manual. Do not substitute parts, modify, or connect in any other way.

After connecting hoses, check that all control lever positions function as instructed in the Operator's Manual. Do not put into service until control lever and equipment movements are correct.

TRAINING

Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment and power unit manuals; follow all safety rules and safety decal information. (Replacement manuals and safety decals are available from your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check the Dealer Locator at www.WoodsEquipment.com, or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319- 6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can result in serious injury or death.

If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.

Know your controls and how to stop engine and attachment quickly in an emergency.

Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its attachments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instructions.

Keep hands and body away from pressurized lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles. Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate skin and will cause serious injury or death.

Make sure that all operating and service personnel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it must be surgically removed as soon as possible by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene, serious injury, or death will result. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.

Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.

PREPARATION

Check that all hardware is properly installed. Always tighten to torque chart specifications unless instructed otherwise in this manual.

Counterweight ballast may be required for machine stability. Check your power unit manual or contact your dealer.

Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic operation 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 putting into servic e or a llowing anyone to approach the equipment.

After connecting hoses, check that all control lever positions function as instructed in the Operator's Manual. Do not put into service until control lever and equipment movements are correct.

Protective hose sleeves must cover all hydraulic hoses within 20 inches of the operator and be secured onto metal hose fittings. Replace hoses or sleeves if damaged or if protective sleeve cannot be properly positioned or secured.

Your dealer can supply original equipment hydraulic accessories and repair parts. Substitute parts may not meet original equipment specifications and may be dangerous.

Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and valves are in good condition and not leaking before starting power unit or using equipment. Check and route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed, pinched, or come into contact with any moving parts. Operate moveable components through full operational range to check clearances. Replace any damaged hoses immediately.

(Safety Rules continued from previous page)

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.

Be sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition. Coupler lockpins must be fully extended and properly engaged into attachment retaining slots.

Power unit must be equipped with ROPS and seat belt/operator restraint. Keep seat belt/operator restraint securely fastened/engaged. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep ROPS systems in place at all times.

Make sure all safety decals are installed. Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for location.)

Make sure shields and guards are properly installed and in good condition. Replace if damaged.

Inspect and clear area of stones, branches, or other hard objects that might be thrown, causing injury or damage.

OPERATION

Only engage power when equipment is at ground operating level. Always disengage power when equipment is raised off the ground.

Improper operation can cause the machine to tip or roll over and cause injury or death.

Keep power unit lift arms and attachment as low as possible.

Do not travel or turn with power unit lift arms and attachment raised.

Turn only on level ground.

Go up and down slopes, not across them.

Keep the heavy end of the machine uphill.

Do not overload the machine.

Never use attachment to carry loads that exceed the rated operating capacity or other specifications of the power unit. Check your power unit manual or see your dealer for rated operating capacity. Exceeding this capacity can cause machine to tip, roll over, or present other hazards that can cause injury or death.

Do not allow bystanders in the area when operating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servicing equipment.

Contact with high voltage, overhead power lines, underground cables, gas lines, and other hazards can cause serious injury or death from electrocution, explosion, or fire.

Keep bystanders away from equipment.

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

Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.

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.

Do not allow riders. Do not lift or carry anybody on the power unit or attachments.

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

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

Use extreme care when working close to fences, ditches, other obstructions, or on hillsides.

Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

Do not stop, start, or change directions suddenly 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 implement immediately upon striking an obstruction. Dismount power unit, using proper procedure. Inspect and repair any damage before resuming operation.

Leak down or failure of mechanical or hydraulic system can cause equipment to drop.

Before making any adjustments on attachment, stop engine and engage parking brake. Never adjust or work on attachment while the power unit or attachment is running.

MAINTENANCE

Before leaving operator's seat, lower lift arms and put attachment on the ground. Engage brake, stop engine, remove key, and remove seat belt.

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 underneath.

Read Operator's Manual for service instructions or have service performed by a qualified dealer.

Use a suitable lifting device of sufficient capacity. Use adequate personnel to handle heavy components.

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

Your dealer can supply original equipment hydraulic accessories and repair parts. Substitute parts may not meet original equipment specifications and may be dangerous.

Never perform service or maintenance with engine running.

Keep all persons away from operator control area while performing adjustments, service, or maintenance.

Tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws to torque chart specifications. Check that all cotter pins are installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe condition before putting unit into service.

Do not disconnect hydraulic lines until all system pressure is relieved. Lower unit to ground, stop engine, and operate all hydraulic control levers.

Removal of isolator bolts will let chassis fall. Make sure you support both front and rear ends of chassis securely before you remove the bolts.

When you separate roller drum and chassis, never place fingers or hands between roller drum and chassis.
