ing operation.
Shutdown and Storage
▲ Lower drill, put tractor in park, turn off engine,
and remove the key.

vided.
▲ Detach and store drill in an area where chil-
dren normally do not play.
Use Safety Lights and Devices
Slow-moving tractors and towed implements can
create a hazard when driven on public roads.
They are difficult to see, especially at night.
▲ Use flashing warning lights and turn signals
whenever driving on public roads.
▲ Use lights and devices provided with imple-
ment.
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.
