Product Manual

FALLING OFF CAN RESULT IN IMPALEMENT OR BEING RUN OVER.
The tractor must be equipped with a Roll Over Protection Structure (or ROPS CAB) and a seat
belt. Keep the foldable ROPS system in the “locked up” position at all times.
Keep the seat belt securely fastened.
Never allow riders on the equipment.
RAISED EQUIPMENT CAN DROP AND CRUSH.
Before servicing, follow all instructions and safety rules in the Owner’s Manual and securely block
all corners of equipment with jack stands.
Securely blocking prevents equipment dropping due to mechanical component failures.
FALLING OFF OR FAILING TO BLOCK SECURELY CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR
DEATH.
Care of Safety Labels
Use a clean, damp cloth to clean the safety decals.
Avoid spraying too closely to the decals when using a pressure washer. High-pressure water
can enter through very small scratches, or under edges of the decals, causing them to peel or
fall off.
Before Each Use
Training
Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replacement manuals and safety decals are
available from your dealer.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can result in serious
injury or death.
If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.
Operator should know the controls and how to stop the engine and the attachment quickly in
an emergency.
Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its
attachments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper
instructions.
Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.
Preparation
Check that all hardware is properly installed. Always tighten to torque chart specifications
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and
head; and a respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
Make sure the attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.
The power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep the seat belt
securely fastened.
