SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
This Sub-Frame Mounting Kit is only for the

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 an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of equipment.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
backhoes and tractors specified in the Sub-Frame
Mount Installation section of this manual. Any
other use or modification of this mounting kit may
result in serious injury or death.
Make sure that all operating and service personnel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by
a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene, serious injury, or death will result. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
To prevent contamination during maintenance
and storage, clean and then cover hose ends, fittings, and hydraulic ports with tape.
Check that all hardware is properly installed.
Always tighten to torque chart specifications
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
This mounting kit is designed to provide secure
mounting and adequate operator clearance for
most operators when properly installed. Check
clearance dimensions shown below to be sure you
have installed seat bracket correctly. In some
cases it may be necessary to adjust the seat to the
lowest position and/or as far forward as possible in
order to achieve the ideal 40-inch clearance. For
36.5-inch radius operation, taller operators may
need to wear a hardhat for greater comfort and
safety.
Hydraulics must be connected as instructed in
this manual. Do not substitute parts, modify, or
connect in any other way.
After connecting hoses, check that all control
lever positions function as instructed in the Operator's Manual. Do not put into service until control
lever and equipment movements are correct.
Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replacement manuals and safety decals are available from
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check
the Dealer Locator at www.WoodsEquipment.com,
or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-
6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules
can result in serious injury or death.
Know your controls and how to stop engine and
attachment quickly in an emergency.
Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
4-Point SFMK (Rev. 5/8/2006)
Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic operation and allows loads or equipment components
to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment
or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance,
purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all
hydraulic functions several times. Do this before
putting into service or allowing anyone to
approach the equipment.
Protective hose sleeves must cover all hydraulic hoses within 20 inches of the operator and be
secured onto metal hose fittings. Replace hoses or
sleeves if damaged or if protective sleeve cannot
be properly positioned or secured.
(Safety Rules continued on next page)

SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
(Safety Rules continued from previous page)
Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and
valves are in good condition and not leaking before
starting power unit or using equipment. Check and
route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses
must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed,
pinched, or come into contact with any moving
parts. Operate moveable components through full
operational range to check clearances. Replace
any damaged hoses immediately.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.
Remove seat and upper support assembly
before installing or removing backhoe from tractor.
Failure to comply may result in equipment failure
and/or personal injury.
Do not allow bystanders in the area when operating, attaching, removing, assembling, or servicing equipment.
Before operating, make sure stabilizer pads are
lowered firmly to the ground. Stabilizer arms provide support for the backhoe and support for the
backhoe mounting brackets.
The only time the backhoe may be operated
from a position other than the operator seat is during backhoe attachment and removal. Operator
must:
•Read Mounting Kit Manual instructions on
attaching and removing backhoe and use
extreme care.
•Always stand between rear tire and backhoe
stabilizer arms or along side of tractor to avoid
being trapped should the boom swing control
be accidentally activated.
Never leave equipment unattended with engine
running or with bucket in raised position. Always
engage swing and boom transport locks, relieve
system pressure by operating controls, and
remove ignition key before leaving equipment.
Refer to backhoe manual and follow all maintenance safety rules and instructions.
Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, tractor could tip over, causing personal
injury or death. The weight may be attained with a
loader. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not
estimate.
Do not install backhoe and required counterweights on tractor if the total tractor and equipment
weight then exceeds the ROPS weight certification
of the tractor. To reduce overall weight of unit,
remove liquid from rear tires and remove midmount mower, if equipped.
Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to
modify or alter the equipment or any of its components in any way.
Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
Tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws to torque
chart specifications. Check that all cotter pins are
installed securely to ensure equipment is in a safe
condition before putting unit into service.
Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Parts section for location.)
