SAFETY
BE A SAFE OPERATOR
By thinking before acting and reading your operators manual you will be a SAFE OPERATOR.
AVOID ACCIDENTS , most accidents, whether they occur in industry, on the farm, at home, or on
the highway, are caused by the failure of some individual to follow simple and fundamental
safety rules or precautions. For this reason most accidents can be prevented by recognizing
the real cause and doing something about it before the accident occurs.
Regardless of the care used in the design and construction of any type of equipment, there
are many conditions that cannot be completely safeguarded against without interfering with
reasonable accessibility and efficient operation. A careful operator is the best insurance against
an accident.

EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES
Safety of the operator is one of the main concerns in designing and developing a new piece of
equipment. Designers and manufacturers build in as many safety features as possible. However, every year many accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds of
thought and a more careful approach to handling equipment. You, the operator, can avoid
many accidents by observing the following precautions in this section. To avoid personal
injury, study the following precautions and insist those working with you or for you follow them.
In order to provide a better view, certain photographs or illustrations in this manual may show
an assembly with a safety shield removed. However, equipment should never be operated in
this condition. Keep all shields in place. If shield removal becomes necessary for repairs,
replace the shield prior to use.
Replace any CAUTION, WARNING, DANGER or NOTICE label that is not readable or is missing.
Do not attempt to operate this equipment under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Review the safety instructions with all users annually.
This equipment is dangerous to children and persons unfamiliar with its operation. The opera-
tor should be a responsible adult familiar with farm machinery and trained in this equipment’s
operation. Do not allow persons to operate or assemble this unit until they have read
this manual and have developed a through understanding of the safety precautions
and how it works.
Do not paint over, remove or deface any safety signs or warning labels on your equipment.
Observe all safety signs and practice the instructions on them.
Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery. If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in
question - DON’T TRY IT.
LIGHTING AND MARKING
It is the responsibility of the operator to know the lighting and marking requirements of the local
highway authorities and to install and maintain the equipment to provide compliance with the
regulations. Add extra lights when transporting at night or during periods of limited visibility.

Section 1
SAFETY
DURING OPERATION:
• SAFETY CHAIN - if equipment is going to be transported on a public highway, a safety
chain should be obtained and installed. Always follow state and local regulations regarding a
safety chain and auxiliary lighting when towing farm equipment on a public highway. Be sure to
check with local law enforcement agencies for your own particular regulations. Only a safety
chain (not and elastic or nylon/plastic tow strap) should be used to retain the connection
between the towing and towed machine in the event of separation of the primary attaching
system.
• Install the safety chain by crossing the chains under the tongue and secure to the draw
bar cage or hitch or bumper frame.
• Beware of bystanders, particularly children! Always look around to make sure that it
is safe to start the engine of the towing vehicle or move the unit. This is particularly import with
higher noise levels and quiet cabs, as you may not hear people.
• NO PASSENGERS ALLOWED - Do not carry passengers anywhere on, or in, the
tractor or equipment, except as required for operations.
• Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts.
• Do not clean, lubricate or adjust your equipment while it is operating.
• When halting operation, even periodically, set the tractor or towing vehicle brakes,
disengage the PTO, shut off the engine and remove the ignition key.
• Pick the levelest possible route when transporting across fields. Avoid the edges of
ditches or gullies and steep hillsides.
• Maneuver the tractor or towing vehicle at safe speeds.
• Avoid overhead wires or other obstacles. Contact with overhead lines could cause
serious injury or death.
• Allow for unit length when making turns.
• Do not walk or work under raised components or attachments unless securely posi-
tioned and blocked.
