BE SURE TO HOOK UP HYDRAULIC LINES PROPERLY!
ENSURE HYDRAULIC LINES HAVE NOT BEEN DAMAGED DURING
SHIPPING.
ESCAPING HYDRAULIC FLUID UNDER PRESSURE CAN
PENETRATE THE SKIN CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY. AVOID THIS
HAZARD BY RE LIEVING PRESSURE BEFORE DISCONNECTING
HYDRAULIC LINES.
ENSURE ALL CONNECTIONS ARE TIGHT BEFORE APPLYING
PRESSURE, SEARCH FOR LEAKS WITH A PIECE OF
CARDBOARD, NOT YOUR HANDS!
IMPROPER HOOK-UP CAN CAUSE DANGEROUS BOOM
MOVEMENTS AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE SPRAYER HYDRAULICS.
DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE NEAR A HYDRAULIC BOOM IN
OPERATION.
ALWAYS SHUT TRACTOR OFF WHEN CONNECTING, SERVICING
OR ADJUSTING BOOM.
