SAFETY
YOU are responsible for the SAFE operation and maintenance of your Buhler Farm
King 25 Series Rotary-Tiller. YOU must ensure that you and anyone else who is going
to operate, maintain or work around the Rotary-Tiller be familiar with the operating and
maintenance procedures and related SAFETY information contained in this manual.
This manual will take you step-by-step through your working day and alert you to all
good safety practices that should be adhered to while operating the Tiller.
Remember, YOU are the key to safety. Good safety practices not only protect you but
also the people around you. Make these practices a working part of your safety
program. Be certain that EVERYONE operating this equipment is familiar with the
recommended operating and maintenance procedures and follows all the safety
precautions. Most accidents can be prevented. Do not risk injury or death by ignoring
good safety practices.
* Tiller owners must give operating instructions to operators or employees before
allowing them to operate the Tiller, and at least annually thereafter per OSHA
(Occupational Safety and Health Administration) regulation 1928.57.
* The most important safety device on this equipment is a SAFE operator. It is the
operator's responsibility to read and understand ALL Safety and Operating instructions
in the manual and to follow them. All accidents can be avoided.
* A person who has not read and understood all operating and safety instructions is
not qualified to operate the machine. An untrained operator exposes himself and
bystanders to possible serious injury or death.
* Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair
the function and/or safety and could affect the life of the equipment.
* Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!
