Gehl Company always takes safety into consideration when designing its products, and designs guards for
exposed moving parts whenever it is possible and practical to do so. However, even with todays state-of-the-art
technology, it must be recognized that in order to assure machine functionality for specific purposes not all machine
hazards can be guarded or shielded.
Decals are placed on the machine to warn of additional hazards and must be read and strictly followed.

and reminders are not all-inclusive and do not replace federal, state or local regulations, insurance needs or other
safety code requirements.
