• use extreme caution when getting onto the implement to perform repairs, maintenance and
when removing accumulated material. Only stand on solid flat surfaces to ensure good footing.
use a ladder or raised stand to access high spots which cannot be reached from ground level.
Slipping and falling can cause serious injury or death.
• never work under the implement, the framework, or any lifted component unless the implement
is securely supported or blocked up to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause
serious injury or even death.
• never attempt to lubricate, adjust, or remove material from the implement while it is in motion
or while tractor engine is running. make sure the tractor engine is off, the transmission in park,
the parking brake set, and that the key is with you before working on the implement.
• Relieve hydraulic pressure prior to doing any maintenance or repair work on the implement.
Place the implement on the ground or securely blocked up, disengage the PtO, and turn off the
tractor engine. push and pull the Remote cylinder lever in and out several times prior to starting
any maintenance or repair work.
• never interfere with factory-set hydraulic calibrations. any change in calibration could cause a
failure of the equipment and may result in injury.
• always disconnect the main PtO Driveline from the tractor before performing service on
the implement. never work on the implement with the tractor PtO driveline connected and
running. Rotating Parts, blades or drivelines could turn without warning and cause immediate
entanglement, injury or death.
• DO nOt weld or repair rotating implement components. Welds and other repairs may cause
severe vibration and/or component failure resulting in part being thrown from the implement
causing serious bodily injury. See your authorized Dealer for proper repairs.
• DO nOt weld or perform hot work on galvanized implements. Heating/burning of galvanizing
material may release fumes which can be harmful to your health.
