SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL
XL
–
When operating mobile P.T.O. driven equipment, DO NOT leave the
tractor seat until the PTO drive is disengaged, the lowest gear is enga-
ged (if mechanical), the parking brake is engaged, the engine shut off
and the key removed.
–
DO NOT use P.T.O. adaptors, reducers or extensions as they extend
the P.T.O. coupler and universal joint out beyond the protection offe-
red by the P.T.O. shield.
–
The top link and lift rods must not be extended beyond the point where
threads begin to show.
–
When using chemicals, carefully follow for use, storage and disposal.
Also follow the chemical application equipment manufacturer’s in-
structions.
–
When operating under poor visibility conditions, or in the dark, use
your tractor field lights and reduce your ground speed. DO NOT use
your field lights when travelling on a roadway because rear pointed
white lights may be illegal except when reversing and may confuse fol-
lowing drivers.
–
Operate your tractor with the wheels set at the widest setting possible,
consistent with the particular task you are performing. To adjust wheel
settings refer to Maintenance and Adjustment section.
–
Reduce your speed when operating over rough or slippery ground
and when foliage restricts your view of hazards.
–
DO NOT make sharp turns at high speed.
Implements and Attachments
–
Three-point hitch and side mounted implements make a much larger
arc when turning than towed equipment. Make certain to allow suffi-
cient clearance for turning. Use only approved attachments and im-
plements.
–
When using attachments or implements with the tractor, be sure to
thoroughly read the Operator Instruction Book for that attachment or
implement and follow its safety instructions.
WARNING: A FRONT-END LOADER (BUCKET OR FORKS) MUST BE
EQUIPPED WITH A SUITABLE RESTRAINING DEVICE TO PREVENT
THE LOAD (BALES, FENCE POSTS, ROLLS OF FENCE, WIRE ETC.)
FROM ROLLING DOWN THE LIFT ARMS INTO THE OPERATOR’S
COMPARTMENT AND CRUSHING THE DRIVER WHEN THE LOADER
IS RAISED. INADEQUATELY SECURED OBJECTS COULD ALSO
FALL AND INJURE BYSTANDERS.
