Safety
IT IS TOO LATE TO REMEMBER WHAT SHOULD
HAVE BEEN DONE AFTER THE ACCIDENT HAS
HAPPENED.
• READ the Operator Manuals carefully to acquaint
you with the header and the machine. Operating
unfamiliar equipment can cause accidents.
• ALWAYS shift the transmission to neutral, stop the
engine, set the brake and remove the start key before
leaving the operators station, or before permitting
anyone to inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust or repair
any part of the machine or its attachments, unless
otherwise specifically recommended in the Service
Manual or the Operators Manual.
• NEVER permit anyone to work under the header or
the feeder housing or between the header and the
machine UNLESS the lift ram stop is fully engaged
on the left lift ram, the engine is stopped, the brake is
set, the key is removed from the start switch and the
header is latched securely to the feeder housing.
• NEVER permit the operator or another person to
engage or disengage the lift ram stop UNLESS the
engine is stopped, the brake is set, and the key is
removed from the start switch while that person is
between the header and the machine or under the
feeder housing.
• NEVER permit anyone to get under the reel
UNLESS BOTH THE RIGHT HAND and LEFT
HAND reel ram stops are fully engaged over the lift
ram rods and against the ends of the lift ram barrels,
the engine is stopped, the brake is set, and the start
key is removed.
• BE SURE that everyone is clear of the machine
before starting the engine and mechanism or its
attachments.
• ALWAYS be sure that all shields, guards and access
doors are in place when the header is in operation.
• DO NOT try to clean, adjust, or service the header
while the header or the machine is running.
• KEEP all belts and chains in alignment and at the
proper tension.
• NEVER turn the header conveyor or drives unless
ALL parts of the body and articles of clothing are well
clear of the sickle, chains, gears, and other moving
parts.
• FOR YOUR SAFETY and the safety of others, all
SAFETY AND OPERATIONAL DECALS that
become damaged, faded, or come off should be
replaced immediately.
• REMEMBER that safe operation is no accident.
• ALWAYS lower the Grain Head to the ground, or
block, or lock the Grain Head up securely before
disconnecting or servicing any part of the hydraulic
system.
• ALWAYS keep the drives, moving parts, and shields
clean of chaff and straw buildup to reduce the
possibility of fire.
• BEFORE attaching, adjusting or working on the
driveline, disengage the header drive, lower the
header to the ground, stop the engine, remove the
starter key and set the parking brake.
• BEFORE engaging the header drive, carefully
engage and lower the header to check the clearance,
driveline shaft slide range, and articulation.
•
BE SURE that all drivelines have the correct guards
and that they are in good operating condition.
• NEVER use the driveline as a step.
• NEVER wear loose fitting clothing and keep at least
your height in distance away from a rotating driveline.
