SAFETY
Any power equipment can cause injury if operated improperly or if the user does not understand how to operate
the equipment. Exercise caution at all times, when using power equipment.
• This sun shade does not provide protection against
exhaust fumes, collision, rollover or other accidents.
• Read the sun shade and vehicle owner's manuals
and know how to operate your vehicle and sun
shade before using the sun shade attachment.
• Be sure there is adequate ventilation when using
the tractor and sun shade in confined areas.
• The sun shade will restrict your field of vision in
some directions. Use extra caution when operating
your tractor with the sun shade attached.
Look for this symbol to point out important safety precautions. It means–Attention!!
Become alert!! Your safety is involved.
• Watch for low tree limbs or other overhead obstruc-
tions that may not previously have interfered with
the operation of the tractor. The extra height of the
sun shade may cause these objects to become
obstacles.
• Check the area of operation thoroughly before
using the tractor.
