Allied 595 - Safety.6

Safety
Never work beneath raised loader unless it
is securely supported. The following are
instructions for the Lift Lock Supports;
Do not pivot or turn tractor with bucket raised,
except at a minimum speed. Always make
allowance for length of loader when making
turns.
• Space rear tires as recommended by
tractor manufacturer. Maximize width
for high lift applications.
• Do not raise bucket to extreme heights
while tractor is on an incline. Carry
loader low for safety. Note in above
illustration how load center moves out
when bucket is raised on a slope. Be
alert for terrain changes and adjust
bucket accordingly. Keep bucket low,
no more than one foot high, as long as
possible.
• Never leave tractor unattended while the bucket #
is raided. Always lower bucket to the ground
and shut off before leaving tractor seat.
Note: A pivoting front axle acts like a
three-wheeled tractor until the stops hit
the axle.
Do not walk under raised bucket.
Never operate loader while operator is not
seated in the driver’s seat on the tractor.
Keep tractor on solid ground. Loose fill, rocks
and holes can be dangerous for loader
operation or movement.
Never operate a loader with frayed or damaged
hoses or leaking fittings.
Add ballast as required to ensure 25% of
gross vehicle weight is transferred to the
rear axle.
• If lift cylinders are used to raise front
wheels of tractor for service, place
blocks under tractor before working
around front end.
