engine remove the key, and make sure that the PTO
driveline has stopped.

and observe all safety signs .
Be sure everyone is clear of your machine before
engaging the PTO. For stationary PTO operation,
always place transmission in neutral, engage parking
brake and lock both tractor and implement wheels.
When operating mobile PTO driven equipment, never
leave the tractor seat until the PTO drive is dis-
engaged, the transmission is in neutral, the parking
brake is engaged, the engine shut off and the key
removed.
DO NOT use PTO adaptors, reducers or extensions
as they extend the PTO coupler and universal joint
out beyond the protection offered by the PTO shield.
The top link rods must not be extended beyond the
point where threads begin to show. Fig.2-28
WARNING : NEVER attempt to unplug the
hydraulic connections, or adjust an implement

operation. To do so may result in serious injury or
death.
When using chemicals, carefully follow the
chemical manufacturer's instructions for use,
storage and disposal. Also follow the chemical
application equipment manufacturer's instructions.
When operating under poor visibility conditions, or
in the dark, use your ground speed. (DO NOT use
your field lights when traveling on a roadway
because rear pointed white lights are illegal except
when reversing and may confuse following
drivers).
Operate your tractor with the wheels set 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
