6.8 Equipment Safety Guidelines
Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of the
main concerns in designing and developing equipment.
However, every year many accidents occur which
could have been avoided by a few seconds of thought
and a more careful approach to handling equipment.
You, the operator, can avoid many accidents by
observing the following precautions in this section.
To avoid personal injury or death, study the following
precautions and insist those working with you, or for
you to follow them.
In order to provide a better view, certain photographs
or illustrations in this manual may show an assembly
with a safety shield removed. However, equipment
should never be used in this condition. Keep all shields
in place. If shield removal becomes necessary for
repairs, replace the shield prior to use.
1. Replace any safety sign or instruction sign that is
not readable or is missing. Location of such safety
signs is indicated in this manual.
2. Do not modify the equipment in any way.
Unauthorized modication may result in serious
injury or death and may impair the function and life
of the equipment.
3. In addition to the design and conguration of this
implement, including Safety Signs and Safety
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 the machine. Refer also to Safety
Messages and operation instruction in each of the
appropriate sections of the tractor and machine
manuals. Pay close attention to the Safety Signs
afxed to the tractor and the machine.
4. Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery.
If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely is in
question – DO NOT TRY IT..

6.9 Safety Training
1. Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by a single careless act of an operator or
bystander.
2. In addition to the design and conguration 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 this equipment.
3. The best safety feature is an
informed, careful operator—we
ask you to be that kind of an
operator. It is the operator's
responsibility to read, understand
and follow ALL safety and
operation instructions in the
manual. Accidents can be
avoided.
4. Working with unfamiliar equipment can lead
to careless injuries. Read this manual before
assembly or using the machine to acquaint
yourself with it. If this machine is used by any
person other than yourself, or is loaned or rented,
it is the machine owner's responsibility to make
certain that prior to using, the operator:
- reads and understands the owner's manual
- is instructed in safe and proper use of the
equipment
- understands and knows how to perform the
Safe Condition procedure
5. Train all new personnel and review instructions
frequently with existing workers. Be certain only
a properly trained and physically able person will
use the machinery. A person who has not read and
understood all use and safety instructions is not
qualied to use the machine. An untrained operator
exposes himself and bystanders to possible
serious injury or death. If the elderly are assisting
with the work, their physical limitations need to be
recognized and accommodated.
6.10 Maintenance Safety
Place the machine in a Safe Condition before
performing any service, maintenance work or storage
preparation. See Safe Condition on page 9

your equipment to original specications. The
manufacturer will not be responsible for injuries or
damages caused by use of unapproved parts and/
or accessories.
• A re extinguisher and rst aid kit should be kept
readily accessible while performing maintenance
on this equipment.
