WARNING!

Crushing hazard. Weights that are improp-
erly positioned or insecure could fall off
the implement during folding, field op-
eration or transport and cause severe
injury or death to bystanders. Adding
weight to the wings could cause a
wing to drop suddenly during fold-
ing and severely injure or kill by-
standers. Do not add more than
eight weights (four pairs) to the im-
plement. Use only Great Plains
weights, part number 163-233A, as
additional weight on the implement.
Do not add weights to the wing sections.
