Introduction and Safety Information

Introduction

The implement described in this manual has been designed with care and built by skilled workers using quality materials and processes. Proper assembly and maintenance will provide you with satisfactory use for seasons to come.
Read this entire manual before attempting to assemble, adjust or operate this implement.
Failure to comply with this warning can result in personal injury or death, damage
implement or its components and inferior operation.

Description of Unit

The front rollers of the Brillion Pulvi-Mulcher break up surface clods. Conventional “C” teeth or “S-Tine” teeth loosen the soil up to 6” in depth and pull clods to the surface. The rear roller wheels then crush those clods and convert the soil into a firmed, mulched seedbed that locks in moisture at the root level. The result is a uniformly firmed and tilled seedbed from top to bottom, but not compacted. The growing environment receives the full benefit of capillary action of the soil for better germination, better moisture retention and faster decomposition of residue.

Safety

Investigation has shown that nearly 1/3 of all farm accidents are caused by careless use of machinery. Insist that all people working with you or for you abide by all safety instructions.

Understanding Safety Statements

You will find various types of safety information on the following pages and on the implement decals (signs) attached to the implement. This section explains their meaning.
Special notice - read and thoroughly understand.
Proceed with caution. Failure to heed caution may
cause injury to person or damage product.
Proceed with caution. Failure to heed warning will cause injury to person or damage product.
Proceed with extreme caution. Failure to heed notice will cause injury or death to person and/or damage product.
You should read and understand the information contained in this manual and on the implement decals before you attempt to operate or maintain this equipment.
Examine safety decals and be sure you have the correct safety decals for the implement. See Figure 1-3.
Order replacement decals through your Brillion dealer.
Keep these signs clean so they can be observed readily. It is important to keep these decals cleaned more frequently than the implement. Wash with soap and water or a cleaning solution as required.
Replace decals that become damaged or lost. Also, be sure that any new implement components installed during repair include decals which are assigned to them by the manufacturer.
When applying decals to the implement, be sure to clean the surface to remove any dirt or residue. Where possible, sign placement should protect the sign from abrasion, damage, or obstruction from mud, dirt, oil etc.
• Do not allow anyone to ride on the tractor or implement. Riders could be struck by foreign objects or thrown from the implement.
• Never allow children to operate equipment.
• Keep bystanders away from implement during operation.

Transporting Safet y

It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to comply with all state and local laws.
When transporting the implement on a road or highway, use adequate warning symbols, reflectors, lights and slow moving vehicle sign as required. Slow moving tractors and towed implements can create a hazard when driven on public roads. They are difficult to see, especially at night.
Do not tow an implement that, when fully loaded, weighs more than 1.5 times the weight of the towing vehicle.
Carry reflectors or flags to mark the tractor and implement in case of breakdown on the road.
Do not transport at speeds over 20 MPH under good conditions. 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.
Avoid sudden stops or turns because the weight of the implement may cause the operator to lose control of the tractor. Use a tractor heavier than the implement.
Use caution when towing behind articulated steering tractors; fast or sharp turns may cause the implement to shift sideways.
Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions when transporting. Know the transport height and width of your implement.

Attaching, Detaching and Storage

• Do not stand between the tractor and implement when attaching or detaching implement unless both are blocked from moving.
• Block implement so it will not roll when unhitched from the tractor.

Maintenance Safety

• Block the implement so it will not roll when working on or under it to prevent injury.
• Do not make adjustments or lubricate the machine while it is in motion.
• Make sure all moving parts have stopped.
• Understand the procedure before doing the work. Use proper tools and equipment.

Protective Equipment

• Wear protective clothing & 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.

High Pressure Fluid Safety

Escaping fluid under pressure can be nearly invisible and have enough force to penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Use a piece of cardboard, rather than hands, to search for suspected leaks.
Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene may result.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines.

Tire Safety

When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side, not in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available.
When removing and installing wheels use wheel-handling equipment adequate for the weight involved.
Safety Chain
Use the safety chain to help control drawn machinery should it separate from the tractor drawbar.
Use a chain with a strength rating equal to or greater than the gross weight of towed machinery, which is 10,100 pounds minimum in accordance with ASAE S338.2 specifications. If two or more implements are pulled in tandem, a larger chain may be required. Chain capacity must be greater than the TOTAL weight of all towed implements.
A second chain should be used between each implement.
Attach the chain to the tractor drawbar support or specified anchor location. Allow only enough slack in the chain to permit turning. The distance from hitch pin to attachment point or intermediate support point should not exceed 9 inches. See Figure 1-2.
Replace the chain if any links or end fittings are broken, stretched or damaged.
Do not use a safety chain for towing.
Tire changing can be dangerous and should be performed by trained personnel using correct tools and equipment.

WARNING
DO NOT GO NEAR LEAKS
High pressure oil easily punctures skin causing serious injury, gangrene or death. If injured, seek emergency medical help. Immediate surgery is required to remove oil. Do not use fingers or skin to check for leaks. Lower load or relieve hydraulic pressure before loosening fittings.
CAUTION
MOVING MACHINES CAN CAUSE INJURY. KEEP AWAY!
1. KEEP AWAY FROM MOVING TRACTORS OR IMPLEMENTS. KEEP OTHERS AWAY.
2. DO NOT RIDE OR ALLOW OTHERS TO RIDE ON TRACTOR OR IMPLEMENT.
3. BLOCK IMPLEMENT TO PREVENT MOVEMENT WHEN UNHITCHED FROM TRACTOR.
4. KEEP ALL GUARDS AND SHIELDS IN PLACE WHILE MACHINE OR PARTS ARE IN MOTION.
