Loss of control hazard
DANGER
To prevent serious injury or death from losing control of the
machine:
• Do NOT make abrupt changes in the direction in which you
are steering.
• Slow down before turning the machine.
• Do NOT make sudden, sharp changes to your speed
while turning, such as hard braking.
When travelling on steep slopes:
• Reduce the machine ’s speed and lower the header.
• Move the ground speed lever to the slow end of the range.
• Shift the high-low speed control to the low range.
When the windrower is operating without a header attached,
weight must be added over the drive wheels so that you can
maintain steering control. If you must drive the windrower
without a header or without a MacDon weight system:
• Operate the windrower in the low-speed range.
• Avoid slopes.
• Do NOT tow a header.
• If control of the machine is lost, immediately pull the ground
speed lever to the neutral position.

High-pressure oil hazard
WARNING
High-pressure hydraulic fluid can penetrate human skin, which
can cause serious injury such as gangrene, which can be fatal.
To prevent this:
• Do NOT go near hydraulic fluid leaks.
• Do NOT use a finger or skin to check for hydraulic
fluid leaks.
• Lower the load or relieve the pressure in the hydraulic
system before loosening any hydraulic fittings.
• If you are injured, seek emergency medical help.
IMMEDIATE surgery is required to remove hydraulic fluid
which has penetrated the skin.
