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.
