hazardous chemicals, you can be seriously
injured. The fluids, lubricants, paints,
adhesives, coolants, etc., used with your tractor
can be hazardous, ALWAYS follow the
chemical manufacturers instructions
thoroughly.
● North America Only:
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) provide
information about the chemical substances
within a product, safe handling procedures,
first aid measures and procedures to be
taken when the product is accidentally spilled
or released. In North American, Material
Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available
from your dealer.
Before you service your machine, check the
MSDS for each fluid, lubricant, etc., used in this
machine. This information indicates what the
risks are and how to service the machine safely.
Follow this information when servicing the

● Cab air filters remove dust in the air, but are
not capable of removing chemicals used in
spraying crops or in weed control.
Many chemicals used for these purposes are
toxic when improperly used, and can be
hazardous to operators and others in the area.
Follow the instructions of manufacturers of both
the equipment and the chemicals regarding
prohibitions against inhalation of dust or spray,
personal hygiene practices, and other
precautions noted by the manufacturers.
● Always wear protective clothing, e.g.:
overalls, goggles, gloves and face mask
when preparing equipment for chemical
spraying operations and ALWAYS follow the
chemical manufacturers instructions. Remove
all protective items and store outside the
operators cab in the locker on the spraying
equipment before entering the tractor operators
cab.
● Before you service the tractor and dispose of
the old fluids and lubricants, always remember
the environment. DO NOT put oil or fluids into
the ground or into containers that can leak.
Check with your local environmental or recycling
