Important Safety Information
Look for Safety Symbol
The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is
a potential hazard to personal safety involved
and extra safety precaution must be taken.
When you see this symbol, be alert and carefully
read the message that follows it. In addition to
design and configuration of equipment, hazard
control and accident prevention are dependent
upon the awareness, concern, prudence and
proper training of personnel involved in the
operation, transport, maintenance and storage of
equipment.
Be Aware of Signal Words
!
Signal words designate a degree or level of hazard seriousness.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, will result in death
or serious injury. This signal word is limited to
the most extreme situations, typically for
machine components that, for functional
purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous
situation, which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury, and includes hazards
that are exposed when guards are removed. It
may also be used to alert against unsafe
practices.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.

Important Safety Information Table of Contents ► Great Plains Mfg., Inc.
Be Familiar with Safety Decals
• Read and understand “Safety Decals,” page
7, thoroughly.
• Read all instructions noted on the decals.
Keep Riders Off Machinery
• Riders obstruct the operator’s view. Riders
could be struck by foreign objects or thrown
from the machine.
• Never allow children to operate equipment.
• Keep all bystanders away from machine dur-
ing operation.
Shutdown and Storage
• Lower Series I Turbo Till, put tractor in park,
turn off engine, and remove the key.
• Secure Series I Turbo Till using blocks and
supports provided.
• Detach and store Series I Turbo Till in an
area where children normally do not play.
Use Safety Lights and Devices
• Slow-moving tractors and towed implements
can create a hazard when driven on public
roads. They are difficult to see, especially at
night.
• Use flashing warning lights and turn signals
whenever driving on public roads.
• Use lights and devices provided with implement.

Great Plains Mfg., Inc. Table of Contents ► Important Safety Information
Transport Machinery Safely
Maximum transport speed for implement is 20
mph. Some rough terrains require a slower
speed. Sudden braking can cause a towed load
to swerve and upset.
• Do not exceed 20 mph. Never travel at a
speed which does not allow adequate
control of steering and stopping. Reduce
speed if towed load is not equipped with
brakes.
• Comply with state and local laws.
• Do not tow an implement that, when fully
loaded, weighs more than 1.5 times the
weight of towing vehicle.
• Carry reflectors or flags to mark tractor and
implement in case of breakdown on the
road.
• Keep clear of overhead power lines and
other obstructions when transporting. Refer
to transport dimensions under
“Specifications and Capacities,” page 72.
• Do not fold or unfold the wings while the
tractor is moving.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids
Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the
skin, causing serious injury.
• Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure
before disconnecting hydraulic lines.
• Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT
BODY PARTS, to check for suspected
leaks.
• Wear protective gloves and safety glasses
or goggles when working with hydraulic
systems.
• If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin must be
surgically removed within a few hours or
gangrene may result.

Practice Safe Maintenance
• Understand procedure before doing work.
Use proper tools and equipment. Refer to
this manual for additional information.
• Work in a clean, dry area.
• Lower the Series I Turbo Till, put tractor in
park, turn off engine, and remove key before
performing maintenance.
• Make sure all moving parts have stopped
and all system pressure is relieved.
• Inspect all parts. Make sure parts are in
good condition and installed properly.
• Remove buildup of grease, oil or debris.
• Remove all tools and unused parts from
Series I Turbo Till before operation.
Prepare for Emergencies
• Be prepared if a fire starts.
• Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher
handy.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance, hospital and fire department near
phone.
Wear Protective Equipment
• Wear protective clothing and equipment.
• Wear clothing and equipment appropriate for
the job. Avoid loose-fitting clothing.
• Because prolonged exposure to loud noise
can cause hearing impairment or hearing
loss, wear suitable hearing protection such
as earmuffs or earplugs.
• Because operating equipment safely
requires your full attention, avoid wearing
radio headphones while operating
machinery.

Handle Chemicals Properly
• Agricultural chemicals can be dangerous.
Improper use can seriously injure persons,
animals, plants, soil and property.
• Read and follow chemical manufacturer’s
instructions.
• Wear protective clothing.
• Handle all chemicals with care.
• Avoid inhaling smoke from any type of
chemical fire.
• Store or dispose of unused chemicals as
specified by chemical manufacturer.
Use A Safety Chain
• Use a safety chain to help control drawn
machinery should it separate from tractor
drawbar.
• Use a chain with a strength rating equal to or
greater than the gross weight of towed
machinery.
• Attach chain to tractor drawbar support or
other specified anchor location. Allow only
enough slack in chain to permit turning.
• Replace chain if any links or end fittings are
broken, stretched or damaged.
• Do not use safety chain for towing.
Tire Safety
• Tire changing can be dangerous and should
be performed by trained personnel using
correct tools and equipment.
• When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and
extension hose long enough to you to stand
to one side–not in front of or over tire
assembly. Use a safety cage if available.
• When removing and installing wheels, use
wheel-handling equipment adequate for
weight involved.

decals.
• Be familiar with all Series I Turbo Till
functions.
• Operate machinery from the driver’s seat
only.
• Do not leave Series I Turbo Till unattended
with tractor engine running.
• Do not transport Series I Turbo Till
the transport pins and all wing locks are
installed.
• Limit transport speed to 20 m.p.h.
• Know the transport height of your unit and be
extremely careful of overhead electrical and
telephone lines when transporting the unit.
• Know the transport width of your machine and
the width of bridges, etc… on the transport
route.
• Make sure that no one is near the machine
during field operation and folding or unfolding
of wing sections.
• Prior to removing any lift cylinders from the
machine, lower implement to the ground, shut
off the tractor and release the pressure in the
lines.
• Do not depend on cylinders to hold the weight
of machine during storage; use the transport
locks.
• Do not walk or stand on any part of the
machine. Never allow anyone to ride on the
Series I Turbo Till.
• Use extreme care when hitching or unhitching
the machine from the tractor. In some
situations with a heavy finishing attachment,

hitch to rise rapidly.
• Never stand with feet under any part of the
machine.
until
• Never allow anyone to walk between the
tractor and Series I Turbo Till while machine is
in operation.
• Keep hands and feet away from turbo blades.
They are quite sharp.
• Any moving piece of equipment is potentially
dangerous. Do not operate until you are
absolutely sure the area is clear of children,
pets and irresponsible persons.
