Read the safety messages on the implement and shown in your manual.
Observe the rules of safety and common sense!
THIS SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL IDENTIFIES IMPORTANT
SAFETY WARNING MESSAGES. CAREFULLY READ EACH
WARNING MESSAGE THAT FOLLOWS. FAILURE TO
UNDERSTAND AND OBEY A SAFETY WARNING, OR
RECOGNIZE A SAFETY HAZARD, COULD RESULT IN AN

THE OPERATOR IS ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
SAFETY OF HIMSELF, AS WELL AS OTHERS, IN THE
OPERATING AREA OF THE TRACTOR AND EQUIPMENT.
UNDERSTAND SIGNAL WORDS

This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme
situations typically for machine components which, for
functional purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury, and includes hazards that are
exposed when guards are removed. It may also
be used to alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.
THIS SYMBOL MEANS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION!
Working with unfamiliar equipment can lead to careless injuries. Read this manual, and the manual for your tractor,
before assembly or operating, to acquaint yourself with the machine. It is the equipment owner’s responsibility, if this
equipment is used by any person other than yourself, is loaned or rented, to make certain that the operator, prior to
operating:
1. Reads and understands the operator’s manuals.
2. Is instructed in safe and proper use.
The use of this equipment is subject to certain hazards which cannot be protected against by mechanical
means or product design. All operators of this equipment must read and understand this entire manual, paying
particular attention to safety and operating instructions, prior to using. If there is something in this manual you
do not understand, ask your supervisor, or your dealer, to explain it to you.
Most accidents occur because of neglect or carelessness. Keep all helpers and bystanders twenty-five feet (25’)
from operating equipment. Only properly trained people should operate this tractor and attached implement. It
is recommended the tractor be equipped with a Roll-Over Protection System (ROPS) and a seat belt that is used.
Always stop the tractor, set brake, shut of f the tractor engine, remove the tractor key, and lower implement to the
ground before dismounting tractor. Never leave equipment unattended with the tractor running.

All equipment is potentially hazardous. There is no substitute for a cautious, safe-minded operator who
recognizes potential hazards and follows reasonable safety practices.
When the use of hand tools is required to perform any part of assembly, installation, adjustment, maintaining,
repairing, removal, or moving the implement, be sure the tools used are designed and recommended by the
tool manufacturer for that specific task.
Personal protection equipment including safety glasses, safety shoes, and gloves are recommended during
assembly, installation, operation, adjustment, maintaining, repairing, removal, or moving of the hitch kit.
Always use two people to handle heavy, unwieldy components during assembly, installation, removal, or
moving of the hitch kit.
Never place any part of your body where it would be in danger if movement should occur during assembly,
installation, operation, maintaining, repairing, removal, or moving the implement.
Never place yourself between the tractor and implement while implement is in operation.
Do not work under a raised implement unless it is securely blocked or held in position. Do not depend on the
tractor hydraulic system to hold the implement in place.
A heavy load can cause instability of the tractor. Use extreme care during travel. Slow down on turns and
watch out for bumps. The tractor may need front counter-weights to counter-balance the weight of the
implement. An unstable tractor could steer badly and possibly tip over, causing injury or death.
Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which can hinder alertness or coordination while operating equipment.
Consult your doctor about operating tractor and implement while taking prescription medications.
Do not allow others to ride on the tractor with an operator. Riders are subject to injury such as being struck by
foreign objects or being thrown off. Riders obstruct the operator’s view resulting in unsafe operation. Never
allow anyone to ride on the implement!
Before you operate any implement, check over all pins, bolts and connections to be sure all are securely in
place. Replace any damaged or worn parts immediately.
Do not allow anyone who is not familiar with the safety rules and operation instructions to use this equipment.
Never allow children to operate or be around equipment.
Do not exceed lift capacity of the tractor hitch.
Keep alert and watch the front as well as the rear when working with the attached implements.

When maneuvering close to buildings or passing through narrow areas, be sure to allow sufficient clearance
for the implement.
Do not operate close to ditches or creeks. Slow down when operating over rough ground.
Always be sure the implement is in the fully raised position when in transport.
Pull from drawbar or lower 3 pt. arms only. Failure to hitch properly could cause tractor to flip over, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Use extreme caution when backfilling deep holes or trenches.
Use care when working on slopes.
Avoid excessive speed during operation.
Make adjustments only when the implement is attached to the tractor.
When using a rear blade in a reverse position, use extra care. Do not ram rear blade into piles of dirt. Tractor
lift arms and the rear blade are not built to take high impact loads in this position. Ramming backwards can
also dislodge operator from seat and/or tractor controls, resulting in possible serious injury or death.
Always ease the tractor into the load. It may be necessary to reposition and take less “bite” on the material to
move it safely.
Watch for and avoid hidden obstructions, i.e., buried pipes, rocks, concrete piers, uneven concrete slabs,
stumps, etc., when operating rear blades, box scrapers, or other ground engaging implements.
NEVER operate any PTO driven implement unless tractor PTO guard is in place and PTO driveline shielding
is in place.
Always shut off tractor and shift to “Park” or set brakes when leaving tractor. Always lower implement to
ground. Remove key when leaving tractor unattended.
Before operating equipment: if you have any questions regarding the proper assembly or operation, contact
your dealer or representative.
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.
In addition to the design and configuration 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
equipment.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that
kind of an operator.
ALWAYS OBEY ALL
SAFETY RULES!
ALWAYS BE CAREFUL!
