11. Tractor wheels are very heavy. Handle
with care and ensure, when stored, they
cannot fall and cause injury.
12. Dispose of all drained fluids and removed
filters properly. Follow local laws
governing disposal of used engine oil.
13. Never oil, grease or adjust the tractor
while it is running. Do not leave the
engine running while the tractor or drawn
equipment is being adjusted, repaired or
cleaned.
14. Be sure all connections are tight and lines
and hoses are undamaged. Before
disconnecting hydraulic lines, relieve all
pressure. Do not overfill the hydraulic
tank.
15. Do not smoke and avoid open flames if
servicing any batteries.
16. Starting fluid is highly flammable. Do not
use near fire, sparks, or open flames.
17. Remove mud, crop residue, chains and
tools from steps and operator’s platform.
They may interfere with pedal operation
or entry/exit from the tractor.
18. Never operate with a damaged tire. The
tire may explode.
19. Tighten all connections before starting
the engine or pressurizing lines.
DIESEL FUEL
1. Under no circumstances should
gasoline, alcohol or blended fuels be
added to diesel fuel. These combinations
can create an increased fire or explosive
hazard. In a closed container, such as a
fuel tank, these blends are more
explosive than pure gasoline. Do not use
these blends.
2. Do not smoke while refueling the tractor
or when standing near fuel. Keep any type
of open flame away.
3. Never remove the fuel cap or refuel with
the engine running. Allow the tractor to
cool off before fueling.
4. Use the proper fuel transfer hose and
nozzle. Make sure the nozzle and hose are
grounded to dissipate static electric
charges.
5. When refueling, make sure the nozzle is in
contact with the filler neck of the tractor
fuel tank before fuel starts to flow and
during the entire time fuel is flowing.
6. Maintain control of the fuel filler pipe
nozzle when filling the tank.
7. Do not fill the fuel tank to capacity. Allow
room for expansion.
8. Wipe up spilled fuel immediately.
9. Always tighten the fuel tank cap securely.
10. If the original fuel tank cap is lost, replace
it with a genuine replacement cap. A
non-approved cap may not be safe.
11. Keep equipment clean and properly
maintained.
12. Do not drive equipment near open fires.
13. Never use fuel for cleaning purposes.
14. Arrange fuel purchases so that summer
grade fuels are not held over and used in
the winter.
15. Ground fuel storage tanks to prevent
static buildup.
