Safety Section 1-6

SAFETY

Use extreme care when lowering or unfolding the implement’s wings. Make sure no bystanders
are close by or underneath the wings. Allow ample clearance around the implement when folding
or unfolding the wings. Use extreme caution around buildings or overhead power lines.

(S3PT-5)

This Implement is wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting this
equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard rails, concrete
abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the Implement and Tractor to pivot
violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious injury, or even death. Never allow the
Implement to contact obstacles.

(S3PT-12)

Be sure you have adequate knowledge of the property you will be working on. Take time to make
yourself aware of any area underground lines or cables. Contact with buried lines or cable could
result in serious injury or death.

(SBH-6)

Do not operate Mower if excessive vibration exists. Shut down PTO and the Tractor engine.
Inspect the Mower to determine the source of the vibration. If Mower blades are missing or
damaged replace them immediately. Do not operate the mower until the blades have been
replaced and the Mower operates smoothly. Operating the Mower with excessive vibration can

result in component failure and broken objects to be thrown outward at very high velocities. To
reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury, or even death, never allow the Mower to
be operated with blades missing.

(SFL-4)

Operate this Equipment only with a Tractor equipped with an approved roll-
over-protective system (ROPS). Always wear seat belts. Serious injury or even
death could result from falling off the tractor--particularly during a turnover when
the operator could be pinned under the ROPS.

(SG-7)

BEFORE leaving the tractor seat, always engage the brake and/or set the
tractor transmission in parking gear, disengage the PTO, stop the engine,
remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop. Place the tractor shift
lever into a low range or parking gear to prevent the tractor from rolling. Never
dismount a Tractor that is moving or while the engine is running. Operate the
Tractor controls from the tractor seat only.

(SG-9)

Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in serious injury or death.
