tor who recognizes the potential hazards and follows reasonable safety practices. The manufacturer has designed this
implement to be used with all its safety equipment properly attached to minimize the chance of accidents.

OPERATING AREA OF THE TRACTOR AND EQUIPMENT.

appropriate signal word for each has been selected
using the following guidelines:
DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation

This signal word is to be limited to the most extreme
situations typically for machine components which, for
functional purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous sit-
uation that, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury, and includes hazards that are
exposed when guards are removed. It may also
be used to alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous sit-
uation that, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.
