SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
Safety of the operator is one of the main concerns in designing and developing a new piece of equipment.
Designers and manufacturers build in as many safety features as possible. 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, study the following precautions and insist those working with you, or for you,
follow them. Review the safety instructions with all users annually.
Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery. If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in question –
DON’T TRY IT.
Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function and/or safety and
could affect the life of the equipment.
In addition to the design and configuration 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 Instructions in each of the appropriate sections of the Tractor, Skid Steer,
and Implement Manuals. Pay close attention to the Safety Signs affixed to the Tractor, Skid Steer, and the
Implement.
Replace any CAUTION, WARNING, DANGER or instruction safety sign that is not readable or is missing.
Location of such safety signs is indicated in this booklet. Do not paint over, remove or deface any safety signs
or warning signs on your equipment. Observe all safety signs and practice the instruction on them.
Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which can hinder alertness or coordination while operating this
equipment. Consult your doctor about operating this machine while taking prescription medications.
This equipment is dangerous to children and persons unfamiliar with its operation. The operator should be a
responsible adult familiar with farm machinery and trained in this equipment’s operations. Do not allow per-
sons to operate or assemble this unit until they have read this manual and have developed a thorough
understanding of the safety precautions and of how it works.
EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES
Know your controls and how to stop skid steer, tractor, engine, and loader quickly in an emergency. Read this
manual and the one provided with your tractor or skid steer.
Only use a tractor equipped with a ROPS cab or rollover protective structure. Keep foldable ROPS systems in
“locked up” position at all times. Keep seat belt fastened.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
OPERATIONAL SAFETY
Be sure power unit is in good condition. Read all the safety precautions and make sure all operators are familiar with the safety rules of operation.
Never leave the tractor and implement unattended while the implement is in the lifted position. Accidental operation of lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause sudden drop of unit with injury or death by crushing.
Keep all helpers and bystanders twenty-five feet (25’) from an operating power unit and attached equipment.
Only properly trained people should operate this machine. It is recommended the tractor be equipped with a
Rollover Protection System (ROPS) and a seat belt that is used. Always stop the tractor, skid steer, or forklift,
set brake, shut off the engine, remove the ignition key, and lower loader and attachment to the ground before
dismounting. Never leave equipment unattended with the engine running.
Please remember it is important that you read and heed the safety signs on the front loader attachment and
loader, and the safety rules set forth. Clean or replace all safety signs if they cannot be clearly read and understood. They are there for your safety as well as the safety of others. The safe use of this machine is strictly
up to you, the operator.
The use of any loader attachment is NOT recommended on tractor with a tricycle wheel arrangement.Tricycle
type tractors are unstable for front loader use.
A heavy load can cause instability in driving a power unit. Make sure the front or rear of the power unit is
properly counter-balanced with weights. Always drive slowly – especially around turns. An unstable power unit
could steer badly and possibly tip over, causing injury or death.
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.
Never allow children to play on or around tractor or implement. Children can slip or fall off the equipment and
be injured or killed. Inadvertent contact with controls can cause the implement to shift or fall crushing themselves or others.
Always use two people to handle heavy, unwieldy components during assembly, installation, removal, or
moving the loader attachment.
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.
Start tractor only when properly seated in the tractor seat. Starting a tractor in gear can result in injury or death.
Do not mount or dismount the tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount or dismount the tractor only when the
tractor and all moving parts are completely stopped.
Operate the tractor and/or implement controls only while properly seated in the tractor seat with the seat belt
securely fastened around you. Inadvertent movement of the tractor or implement may cause serious injury or
death.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
OPERATIONAL SAFETY (continued)
For operator safety, always keep load in front of power unit. NEVER position load back over operator. ALWAYS
BE CAREFUL!
Keep alert and watch the rear as well as the front when working with the loader. Beware of lift clearance when
raising loader to maximum height.
Beware of low electrical wires when loader is raised. Serious injury or death can result if contact is made.
Before you operate any equipment, check over all pins, bolts and connections to be sure all are securely in
place. Replace any damaged or worn parts immediately.
Do not work under a raised loader unless it is securely blocked or held in position. Do not depend on the power
unit hydraulic system to hold the implement in place.
Check that this attachment is securely mounted to the loader. Failure to install lock pins or have the latching
mechanism engage could result in injury or death.
Operate the loader controls smoothly, avoiding jerky operation. Stop loader gradually when lowering or lifting
loads.
When handling bales on a slope, always approach the bale with the power unit facing uphill.
When stacking bales, ALWAYS MAKE SURE BALES ARE PLACED SO THE STACK IS STABLE.
Keep all bystanders at a safe distance. REMEMBER FALLING BALES CAN ROLL OR TUMBLE.
Do not handle loads that exceed the weight limitations of the loader.
Carry the loads slowly and as low as possible to the ground. Avoid excessive speed during operation.
Do not allow children or others to ride on the power unit 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!

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
Comply with state and local laws governing highway safety and movement of farm machinery on public roads.
The use of flashing amber lights is acceptable in most localities. However, some localities prohibit their use.
Local laws should be checked for all highway lighting and marking requirements.
When driving the tractor and equipment on the road or highway under 20 mph (32 kph) at night or during the
day, use flashing amber warning lights and a slow moving vehicle (SMV) identification emblem.
Always be sure the implement is in the proper raised position for transport.
Reduce speed when transporting mounted implements to avoid bouncing and momentary loss of steering
control.
Plan your route to avoid heavy traffic. Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.
Do not drink and drive!
Turn curves or go up or down hills only at a low speed and at a gradual steering angle. Make certain that at
least 20% of the tractor’s weight is on the front wheels to maintain safe steerage. Slow down on rough or
uneven surfaces, and loose gravel.
Use extreme care and maintain minimum ground speed when transporting on hillside, over rough ground and
when operating close to ditches or fences. Be careful when turning sharp corners.
Never allow riders on either power unit or implement. Falling off can kill.
Be a safe and courteous driver. Always yield to oncoming traffic in all situations, including narrow bridges, intersections, etc.
Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph). Reduce speed on rough roads and surfaces.
Always disengage PTO before driving the tractor to transport the implement from one place to another.
TRANSPORT SAFETY
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the tractor with weak or faulty brakes. When operating
down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance increases; use extreme care and reduce your
speed in these conditions. When operating in traffic, always use the tractor’s flashing warning lights and reduce
your speed. Be aware of traffic around you and watch out for the other guy.
