controls from a safe position, far from implement
and drive shaft, standing beside the outer edge of
the front or rear tyres, as the case may be.
•
DO NOT use adapters, reducers or extensions that
could extend the coupling shaft to the PTO or the
universal joint outside the protection of the PTO shield.
•
The top link and lift rods must not be extended beyond
the point where threads begin to show.
DANGER: NEVER attempt to unplug the hydrau-
lic connections, adjust or service an implement
with the engine running or the PTO drive in
operation. There is a great danger of serious
or deadly injuries (Fig.2-34).
•
When using chemicals, carefully follow any directions
for their use, storage and discharge. Also follow the
directions given by manufacturers of equipment for
applying chemicals. Always use specific PERSONAL
SAFETY DEVICES for each service operation.
•
When operating under poor visibility conditions, or
in the dark, use your tractor field lights and reduce
your ground speed. (DO NOT use your field lights
when travelling on a roadway because rear pointed
white lights are illegal except when reversing and
may confuse following drivers).
•
Operate your tractor with the wheels set at the widest
setting possible, consistent with the particular task
you are performing. To adjust wheel settings refer to
Maintenance and Adjustment section.
•
Slow down when working on rough or slippery ter-
rain, and when visibility is reduced by bushes or
foliage.
•
DO NOT make sharp turns at high speed.
