Safety Section 1-4

SAFETY

Always read carefully and comply fully with the manufacturer’s

instructions when handling oil, solvents, cleansers, and any other

chemical agent.

(SG-22)

KEEP AWAY FROM ROTATING ELEMENTS to prevent entanglement

and possible serious injury or death.

(SG-24)

Never allow children to play on or around Tractor or Implement. Children can slip or fall off

the Equipment and be injured or killed. Children can cause the Implement to shift or fall

crushing themselves or others.

(SG-25)

NEVER use drugs or alcohol immediately before or while operating the

Tractor and Implement. Drugs and alcohol will affect an operator’s

alertness and coordination and therefore affect the operator’s ability to

operate the equipment safely. Before operating the Tractor or Implement, an operator on

prescription or over-the-counter medication must consult a medical professional regarding

any side effects of the medication that would hinder their ability to operate the Equipment

safely. NEVER knowingly allow anyone to operate this equipment when their alertness or

coordination is impaired.

Serious injury or death to the operator or others could result if the

operator is under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

(SG-27)

Prolonged operation may cause operator boredom and fatigue affecting safe operation.

Take scheduled work breaks to help prevent these potentially impaired operating

conditions. Never operate the Implement and Tractor in a fatigued or bored mental state which impairs proper

and safe operation.

(SG-32)

Use extreme caution when getting onto the Implement to perform repairs, maintenance and

when removing accumulated material. Only stand on solid flat surfaces to ensure good

footing. Use a ladder or raised stand to access high spots which cannot be reached from gound level.

Slipping and falling can cause serious injury or death.

(SG-33)

Avoid contact with hot surfaces including hydraulic oil tanks, pumps, motors, valves and

hose connections. Relieve hydraulic pressure before performing maintenance or repairs.

Use gloves and eye protection when servicing hot components. Contact with a hot surface or fluid can cause

serious injury from burns or scalding.

(SG-34)
