Important Safety Information

Handle Chemicals Properly

Agricultural chemicals can be dangerous. Im-
proper use can seriously injure persons, animals,
plants, soil and property.

Read and follow chemical manufacturer’s

instructions.

Wear protective clothing.

Handle all chemicals with care.

Avoid inhaling smoke from any type of chemi-

cal fire.

Store or dispose of unused chemicals as

specified by chemical manufacturer.

Use A Safety Chain

Use a safety chain to help control drawn

machinery should it separate from tractor
drawbar.

Use a chain with a strength rating equal to or

greater than the gross weight of towed
machinery.

Attach chain to tractor drawbar support or

other specified anchor location. Allow only
enough slack in chain to permit turning.

Replace chain if any links or end fittings are

broken, stretched or damaged.

Do not use safety chain for towing.

Tire Safety

Tire changing can be dangerous and should be
performed by trained personnel using correct
tools and equipment.

When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and

extension hose long enough for you to stand
to one side–not in front of or over tire assem-
bly. Use a safety cage if available.

When removing and installing wheels, use

wheel-handling

equipment

adequate

for

weight involved.
