Important Safety Information
Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products
described in this manual.
Dig Safe - Avoid
Underground Utilities
USA: Call 811
CAN: digsafecanada.ca
Always contact your local utility
companies (electrical, telephone,
gas, water, sewer, and others)
before digging so that they may
mark the location of any
underground services in the
area.
Be sure to ask how close you can
work to the marks they
positioned.
Transport Safely
Comply with federal, state, and
local laws.
Use towing vehicle and trailer of
adequate size and capacity. Secure
equipment towed on a trailer with
tie downs and chains.
Sudden braking can cause a towed
trailer to swerve and upset. Reduce
speed if towed trailer is not
equipped with brakes.
Avoid contact with any overhead
utility lines or electrically charged
conductors.
Always drive with load on end of
loader arms low to the ground.
Always drive straight up and down
steep inclines with heavy end of
skid steer or tractor with loader
attachment on the “uphill” side.
Engage park brake when stopped
on an incline.
Maximum transport speed for an
attached equipment is 20 mph. DO
NOT EXCEED. Never travel at a
speed which does not allow
adequate control of steering and
stopping. Some rough terrains
require a slower speed.
As a guideline, use the following
maximum speed weight ratios for
attached equipment:
20 mph when weight of attached
equipment is less than or equal
to the weight of machine towing
the equipment.
10 mph when weight of attached
equipment exceeds weight of
machine towing equipment but
not more than double the weight.
IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load
that is more than double the weight
of the vehicle towing the load.
Tire Safety
Tire changing can be dangerous
and must be performed by
trained personnel using the
correct tools and equipment.
Always maintain correct tire
pressure. Do not inflate tires
above recommended pressures
shown in the Operator’s Manual.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose long
enough to allow you to stand to
one side and NOT in front of or
over the tire assembly. Use a
safety cage if available.
Securely support the attachment
when changing a wheel.
When removing and installing
wheels, use wheel handling
equipment adequate for the
weight involved.
Make sure wheel bolts have been
tightened to the specified torque.
Practice Safe Maintenance
Understand procedure before doing
work. Refer to the Operator’s Manual
for additional information.
Work on a level surface in a clean
dry area that is well-lit.
Lower attachment to the ground and
follow all shutdown procedures
before leaving the operator’s seat to
perform maintenance.
Do not work under any hydraulic
supported equipment. It can settle,
suddenly leak down, or be lowered
accidentally. If it is necessary to work
under the equipment, securely
support it with stands or suitable
blocking beforehand.
Use properly grounded electrical
outlets and tools.
Use correct tools and equipment for
the job that are in good condition.
Allow equipment to cool before
working on it.
Disconnect battery ground cable (-)
before servicing or adjusting
electrical systems or before welding
on equipment.
Inspect all parts. Make certain parts
are in good condition & installed
properly.
Replace parts on this attachment
with genuine Land Pride parts only.
Do not alter this attachment in a way
which will adversely affect its
performance.
Do not grease or oil attachment
while it is in operation.

Important Safety Information
Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products
described in this manual.
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.
911
Wear Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE)
Wear protective clothing and
equipment appropriate for the job
such as safety shoes, safety
glasses, hard hat, and ear plugs.
Clothing should fit snug without
fringes and pull strings to avoid
entanglement with moving parts.
Prolonged exposure to loud noise
can cause hearing impairment or
hearing loss. Wear suitable
hearing protection such as
earmuffs or earplugs.
Operating equipment safely
requires the operator’s full
attention. Avoid wearing
headphones while operating
equipment.
Avoid High
Pressure Fluids Hazard
Escaping fluid under pressure can
penetrate the skin causing serious
injury.
Relieve all residual pressure
before disconnecting hydraulic
lines or performing work on the
hydraulic system.
Make sure all hydraulic fluid
connections are tight and all
hydraulic hoses and lines are in
good condition before applying
pressure to the system.
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.
DO NOT DELAY. If an accident
occurs, see a doctor familiar with
this type of injury immediately. Any
fluid injected into the skin or eyes
must be treated within
a few hours or
gangrene may
result.
Use Safety
Lights and Devices
Slow moving tractors, skid steers,
and self-propelled machines can
create a hazard when driven on
public roads. They are difficult to
see, especially at night. Use the
Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) sign
when on public roads.
Flashing warning lights and turn
signals are recommended
whenever driving on public roads.
Use Seat Belt and ROPS
Land Pride recommends the use
of a CAB or roll-over-protectivestructures (ROPS) and seat belt
in almost all power machines.
Combination of a CAB or ROPS
and seat belt will reduce the risk
of serious injury or death if the
power machine should be upset.
If ROPS is in the locked-up
position, fasten seat belt snugly
and securely to help protect
against serious injury or death
from falling and machine
overturn.
Keep Riders Off
Machinery
Never carry riders on the power
machine or attachment.
Riders obstruct operator’s view
and interfere with the control of
the power machine.
Riders can be struck by objects or
thrown from the equipment.
Never use power machine or
attachment to lift or transport
riders.

Important Safety Information
These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products described in
this manual.
Avoid crystalline Silica
(quartz) Dust
Because crystalline silica is a basic
component of sand and granite,
many activities at construction sites
produce dust containing crystalline
silica. Trenching, sawing, and boring
of material containing crystalline
silica can produce dust containing
crystalline silica particles. This dust
can cause serious injury to the
lungs (silicosis).
There are guidelines which should
be followed if crystalline silica
(quartz) is present in the dust.
Be aware of and follow OSHA
(or other local, State, or Federal)
guidelines for exposure to airborne
crystalline silica.
Know the work operations where
exposure to crystalline silica may
occur.
Participate in air monitoring or
training programs offered by the
employer.
Be aware of and use optional
equipment controls such as water
sprays, local exhaust ventilation,
and enclosed cabs with positive
pressure air conditioning if the
machine has such equipment.
Otherwise respirators shall be worn.
Where respirators are required, wear
a respirator approved for protection
against crystalline silica containing
dust. Do not alter respirator in any
way. Workers who use tight-fitting
respirators can not have beards/
mustaches which interfere with the
respirator seal to the face.
If possible, change into disposable
or washable work clothes at the
work site; shower and change into
clean clothing before leaving the
work site.
Do not eat, drink, use tobacco
products, or apply cosmetics in
areas where there is dust containing
crystalline silica.
Store food, drink, and personal
belongings away from the work
area.
Wash hands and face before eating,
drinking, smoking, or applying
cosmetics after leaving the exposure
area.
Handle
Chemicals Properly
Protective clothing should be
worn.
Handle all chemicals with care.
Follow instructions on container
label.
Agricultural chemicals can be
dangerous. Improper use can
seriously injure persons, animals,
plants, soil, and property.
Inhaling smoke from any type of
chemical fire can be a serious
health hazard.
Store or dispose of unused
chemicals as specified by the
chemical manufacturer.
Tractor Shutdown & Storage
Reduce engine speed and shut-off
all power to the attachment.
Park on solid, level ground and
lower attachment to ground or
onto support blocks.
Put tractor in park or set park
brake, turn off engine, and remove
switch key to prevent unauthorized
starting.
Relieve all hydraulic pressures.
Wait for all components to stop
before leaving operator’s seat.
Use steps, grab-handles and
anti-slip surfaces when stepping
on and off the tractor.
Detach and store implement in an
area where children normally do
not play. Secure implement using
blocks and supports.

IMPORTANT: A special point of information related
to the following topic. Kubota’s intention is this
information must be read & noted before continuing.
NOTE: A special point of information that the
operator should be aware of before continuing.
Introduction
Introduction
Kubota welcomes you to the growing family of new
product owners. This Primary Seeder has been designed
with care and built by skilled workers using quality
materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe
operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory
use from this product.
Application
The AP-PS2072 and AP-PS2086 Primary Seeders are
excellent planting tools for professional contract
landscapers, professional turf managers, and municipal
grounds keepers. Their narrower widths make them very
effective in seeding applications on residential lots,
grassy medians, grassy right-of-ways, community parks,
sporting facilities, and golf courses. Unlike wider models
of seeders these units will do a more effective job of
planting in areas where undulations, moguls, and
depressions are prevalent. The seed box is equipped
with bi-directional fluted seed cups and an agitator
enabling highly accurate and uniform delivery of most turf
grass seeds as well as a wide variety of other seeds
ranging from alfalfa to oats.
The Primary Seeder will hook up to a skid steer or a
tractor 3-point.
See “Specifications & Capacities” on page 37 and
“Features & Benefits” on page 38 for additional
information and performance enhancing options.

a roll-over or other serious hazard.
• Power machines outside the listed horsepower range must
not be used. Higher horsepower machines can damage the
attachment. Under horsepower machines make the job more
difficult.
• Lightweight power machines may need weight added to the
rear to maintain steering control and prevent forward
tipping or side tipping caused by a heavy front load. Consult
your power machine Operator’s Manual to determine
proper weight requirements and maximum weight
limitations.
