SAFETY SUGGESTIONS
Federal law requires that you explain the safety and operating instructions furnished with this machine to all employees before they are allowed to operate the machine. These must be repeated to the employees at the beginning of each season. Be sure to observe and follow the instructions for the safety of anyone who is operating or near the machine.
Investigation has shown that nearly 1/3 of all farm accidents are caused by careless use of machinery. You can do your part in improving safety by observing the following suggestions. Insist that all people working with you or for you abide by them.
1. Do not stand between the tractor and implement when attaching or detaching implement unless both are not moving.
2. Before applying hydraulic pressure to the system, be sure all connections are tight and that hydraulic lines and hoses are not damaged.
3. 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. If injured by fluid, see a doctor at once.
4. Do not make adjustments or lubricate machine while it is in motion.
5. Do not allow anyone to ride on tractor or machine.
6. Always use transport locks while transporting the machine.
7. Do not transport at speeds over 20 mph. Avoid sudden stops or turns when transporting because the weight of the machine may cause the operator to lose control of the tractor. Use a tractor heavier than the machine. Do not allow tractor drawbar to swing when in transport.
8. Hitch pins and other hitching devices should be provided with a retainer to prevent accidental unhitching.
9. Use caution when towing behind articulated steering tractors; fast or sharp turns may cause the machine to shift sideways.
10. When transporting the machine on a road or highway, use adequate warning symbols, reflectors, lights, and slow moving vehicle signs as required. Use a safety chain.
11. Block machine so it will not roll when unhitched from tractor.
12. Relieve pressure in hydraulic lines before uncoupling hydraulic hoses from tractor. On most tractors this can be done by operating valves after engine is stopped.
13. Securely block machine when working on or under it to prevent injury in case of hydraulic failure or inadvertent lowering by another person.
14. Lower machine to ground when not in use.
