5.7 General Operating Instructions
Before putting the disc harrow into service, thoroughly
review the Operation and Parts Manual. Inspect
the overall condition of the disc harrow for potential
problems or damage. Do not use the disc harrow if it
needs repairs of any type. Attach the disc harrow to
the tractor, and transport it to the work site.
Use only an appropriately-sized tractor to pull the disc
harrow. Operate only in conditions where you have
clear visibility in daylight or with adequate articial
lighting. Never operate the disc harrow in darkness or
foggy conditions where you cannot clearly see at least
300 feet in front and to the sides of the tractor and disc
harrow.
Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.
Make sure that you can clearly see and identify
passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs, power
lines, debris, and foreign objects. If you are unable to
clearly see these type of items, discontinue operating
the disc harrow. Thoroughly inspect the work area
for stones, branches, debris, buried utility cables,
pipelines, sprinkler heads, and any other hard objects
that may be struck. Never operate the disc harrow
in an area that you have not inspected and removed
debris or foreign material. Contact local utilities before
operating. Know the location of all underground
cables, pipelines, and other hazards in the area. Mark
the location of objects that cannot be removed. Watch
for trees, low hanging limbs, power lines, and other
overhead obstacles while operating. Use care to avoid
hitting these items.
