SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
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.
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.
Make sure all safety decals are installed. Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section for location.)
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, front wheel weights, ballast in tires or front tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not estimate.
TRAINING
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.
If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.
Know your controls and how to stop engine and attachment quickly in an emergency.
Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its attachments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instructions.
Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.
PREPARATION
Check that all hardware is properly installed. Always tighten to torque chart specifications unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
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.
Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.
Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
OPERATION
Keep bystanders away from equipment.
Do not operate or transport equipment while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Operate only in daylight or good artificial light.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all moving parts.
Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.
Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
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.
Always sit in power unit seat when operating controls or starting engine. Securely fasten seat belt, place transmission in neutral, engage brake, and ensure all other controls are disengaged before starting power unit engine.
Look down and to the rear and make sure area is clear before operating in reverse.
Use extreme care when working close to fences, ditches, other obstructions, or on hillsides.
Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
Do not stop, start, or change directions suddenly on slopes.
Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on slopes and rough terrain.

SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
(Safety Rules continued from previous page)
Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation.
Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before resuming operation.
MAINTENANCE
Before dismounting power unit or performing any service or maintenance, follow these steps: disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point hitch and all raised components to the ground, operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pressure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key, and unfasten seat belt.
NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. Never place any part of the body underneath equipment or between moveable parts even when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak-down, hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or movement of control levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe injury or death.
•Service work does not require going underneath.
•Read Operator's Manual for service instructions or have service performed by a qualified dealer.
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.
Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.
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 Safety Decals section for location.)
STORAGE
Block equipment securely for storage.
Keep children and bystanders away from storage area.

OPERATION
The operator is responsible for the safe operation of this renovator. The operator must be properly trained. Operators should be familiar with the equipment, the tractor, and all safety practices before starting operation. Read the safety rules and safety decals on page 5 through page 8.
Recommended tractor ground speed is from 2 to 5 mph.
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.
Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.
Keep bystanders away from equipment.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from equipment while engine is running. Stay clear of all moving parts.
CAUTION
Stop power unit and equipment immediately upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine, remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before resuming operation.
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.
Super Turf Renovator Roller Operation
The Super Turf Renovator is an excellent turf reconditioning tool. Its ground penetration promotes a healthy root system by allowing water, air, and sunlight to enter the roots.
For best results, adjust the renovator level front to back so that the front and rear rollers work together. Control forward and backward pitch by adjusting the tractor's top link length.
Front Rollers
When the front rollers are straight (Figure 1) and the renovator is pulled forward, the large front pins will penetrate the soil in a straight pushing action, and little disturbance is caused to the turf.
DP6
Figure 1. Front Roller in Straight Position
The front rollers can be angled to promote a more aggressive tearing action of the turf. The more the angle, the more tearing action is applied by the front roller pins. For severe turf conditions, the maximum angle position may be desired (Figure 2).
DP7
Figure 2. Maximum Front Roller Position
Rear Rollers
The rear roller firms and presses soil kicked up by the front roller. This creates a uniform seedbed with the loose soil necessary for ensuring proper seed germination. The spring tension on the rear roller can be
