Whenever you service or adjust your equipment, make sure you shut down and lock out
your power source to prevent inadvertent start-up and hazardous energy release. Know
the procedure(s) that applies to your equipment from the following power sources.
2.5.1. PTO Driveline Safety
Drive
• Keep body, hair, and clothing away from rotating PTO
(power take-off) driveline.
• Make certain the driveline shields telescope and rotate
freely on driveline before attaching.
• Make certain the driveline is securely
attached at both ends.
• Do not operate equipment unless all
driveline, tractor, and equipment shields
are in place and in good working order.
• Do not exceed operating speed of
1000 rpm.
• Keep u-joint angles small and equal. Do
not exceed maximum recommended length for PTO driveline.
• Engage tractor park brake and/or chock wheels.
Lockout
• Position all controls in neutral, shut off tractor’s engine, and remove key from tractor.
• If removing key is impossible, remove PTO driveline from tractor.
2.5.2. Hydraulic Power Safety
Power Source
• Refer to the rules and regulations applicable to the
power source operating your hydraulic drive.
• Do not connect or disconnect hydraulic lines while sys-
tem is under pressure.
• Keep all hydraulic lines away from moving parts.
• Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure will cause serious injury if it penetrates the
skin surface (serious infection or toxic reaction can develop). See a doctor immedi-
ately if injured.

proper hand and eye protection.
