Store and transfer gasoline, solvents, cleaners, or any flammable liquids only in safety standard
(i.e. CSA) approved containers.
Clean and inspect all components in the hydraulic system on a regular basis.
Replace all worn, cut, abraded, flattened, damaged, or crimped hoses and metal lines. Do not
repair hydraulic components with tape, clamps, or cements. The system operates under extremely
high pressure; such repairs will fail and create hazardous and unsafe conditions.
Before applying pressure to the hydraulic system, make sure all connections are tight. Ensure
lines, hoses, and couplings are not damaged.
Ensure that the seeder is properly and safely connected to the tractor.
Transport per local regulations for width and height.
Follow all road safety regulations for your state or province.
Store the seeder on a firm, level surface.

Have a qualified tire dealer or service person perform tire maintenance. Failure to follow proper
procedures when mounting a tire on a wheel or rim can cause an explosion that may result in
serious injury or death.
Always keep safety decals and signs clean and legible. Replace safety decals and signs that are
missing or have become illegible.
Ensure proper use of wing lock-up chains in transport.
Always use hitch safety chain.
Do not transport at high speeds on loose gravel behind a truck or a tractor.
Do not transport with product in tanks.
Ensure proper hook-up of safety lights.
Maneuver machine to ensure castors are moving freely before going onto roads.
Do not transport at speeds higher than that recommended on tires (25 mph or 40 kph).
Check all transport wheel nuts after 100 miles and periodically thereafter. (See PAGE 8).
Use proper tire inflation pressures (SEE TIRE TORQUE AND PSI SPECS, PAGE 8).
