Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Make sure that all persons are in a safe position
before starting the engine, or operating ANY of the
controls.
Always stop the engine before leaving the operator's
platform.
Wait for all moving parts to stop COMPLETELY
before starting any work on the tractor.
Before starting service procedures, attached
equipment should be resting on the ground and all
hydraulic control levers operated back and forth
several times with engine stopped.
If it becomes necessary to go under raised
attachment (i.e.: to perform adjustments, etc.), safety
stands must be used to support the attachment.
Make sure the battery ground cable is disconnected
before working on or near the electrical system of
electrical system components.
Keep hands, feet and clothing a safe distance away
from moving belts, pulleys and other moving parts.
Make sure all safety shields are installed.
Be extra careful when performing any checks,
inspections, adjustments or tests that require
operating the engine, the hydraulic controls, OR with
the machine in motion.
Make sure dependable jacks of adequate lifting
capacity AND suitable stands (or wooden blocking)
are used to securely block up the machine when
removing any of the wheels or axles.
Before any attempt is made to disconnect or remove
any hydraulic component, make sure the hydraulic
pressure within the system is relieved and the engine
is stopped.
Carry out the repair procedures in a "common sense"
manner. Safety procedures cannot be
overemphasized when working on, or around
machinery, especially when working on engine driven
and /or hydraulically actuated equipment.
Safety also depends upon the skill of the serviceman
in the use of tools and other shop equipment while
performing the recommended service procedures.
Exercise extreme caution when testing hydraulic or
fuel system components as fluid ejected under high
pressure can easily penetrate skin causing serious
infection.
When it is necessary to remove hoods, shields,
ROPS, etc. to conduct repair operation, all items
must be reinstalled to unit and secured in original
fashion.
Do not bend, drill holes, or weld on the ROPS
structure, if the ROPS is damaged in any way it must
be replaced.
Personal injury may result if these precautions are
not followed.
Look for this symbol to point out important safety
precautions. It means: ATTENTION! BECOME
ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED.
