Avoid High Pressure Fluids

Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin,
causing serious injury.

Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting

hydraulic lines.

Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to

check for suspected leaks.

Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when

working with hydraulic systems.

If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical attention

from a physician familiar with this type of injury.

Check for Overhead Lines

Drill markers contacting overhead electrical lines can
introduce lethal voltage levels on drill and tractor frames.
A person touching almost any metal part can complete
the circuit to ground, resulting in serious injury or death.

Avoid overhead lines during seed loading/unloading and

marker operations.

Transport Machinery Safely

Maximum transport speed for drill and/or cart is 20 mph
(32 kph). Some rough terrains require a slower speed.
Sudden braking can cause a towed load to swerve and
upset.

Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph). Never travel at a speed

which does not allow adequate control of steering and stop-
ping. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with
brakes.

Comply with national, regional and local laws.
Follow your tractor manual recommendations for maximum

hitch loads. Insufficient weight on tractor steering wheels
will result in loss of control.

Carry reflectors or flags to mark implements in case of

breakdown on the road.

Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions

when transporting. Refer to transport dimensions under
Specifications and Capacities” in Operator manual.
