SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe
equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and conguration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent
upon the awareness, concern, judgment, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance and storage of equipment.
It has been said “The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that kind of operator.
TRAINING
• Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment
and power unit manuals; follow all safety rules and safety
decal information. (Replacement manuals and safety
decals are available from your dealer.) Failure to follow
instructions or safety rules can result in serious injury or
death.
• If you do not understand any part of this manual and need
assistance, see your dealer.
• Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the
safe operation of the equipment, its attachments, and all
controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment
without proper instructions.
• Never allow children or untrained persons to operate
equipment.
PREPARATION
• Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid
getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled
work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands,
hearing, and head; and respirator or lter mask where
appropriate.
• Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in
good operating condition.
• Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab
and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling
off power unit can result in death from being run over
or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up”
position at all times.
• A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight must
be on the tractor front wheels when attachments are in
transport position. Without this weight, tractor could tip
over, causing personal injury or death. The weight may
be attained with a loader, front wheel weights, ballast
in tires or front tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and
equipment. Do not estimate.
TRANSPORTATION
• Always comply with all state and local lighting and
marking requirements.
• Never allow riders on power unit or attachment.
• Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
• Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on slopes
and rough terrain.
• Do not operate or transport equipment while under the
inuence of alcohol or drugs.
• Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab
and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling
off power unit can result in death from being run over
or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up”
position at all times.
• Always sit in power unit seat when operating controls
or starting engine. Securely fasten seat belt, place
transmission in neutral, engage brake, and ensure all
other controls are disengaged before starting power unit
engine.
• A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight must
be on the tractor front wheels when attachments are in
transport position. Without this weight, tractor could tip
over, causing personal injury or death. The weight may
be attained with a loader, front wheel weights, ballast
in tires or front tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and
equipment. Do not estimate.
