SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
You can make your farm a safer place to live and work if you observe the safety precautions
given. Study these precautions carefully and insist that those working with you and for you follow
them.
Finally, remember this: someone’s carelessness, neglect or oversight usually causes an accident.
WARNING
Never clean, lubricate or adjust a machine that is in motion. Always lower or block the implement
before performing service.
If machine must be serviced in the raised position, jack or block it up to prevent it from
accidentally falling or injuring someone.
Do not allow riders on the tractor or implement.
Use speeds and caution dictated by the terrain being traversed. Do not operate on any slope
steep enough to cause tipping or loss of control.
Be sure all personnel are clear of the immediate area before operating.
Read and understand the operator’s manual and require all other persons who will operate the
equipment to do the same.
Be familiar with all tractor and implement controls and be prepared to stop engine and implements
quickly in an emergency.
CAUTION
Consult your implement and tractor operator’s manual for correct and safe operating practices.
Beware of towed implement width and allow safe clearance.
FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
