Handle Chemicals Properly

• Agricultural chemicals can be dangerous.

Improper 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

chemical 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 to you to stand
to one side–not in front of or over tire
assembly. Use a safety cage if available.

• When removing and installing wheels, use

wheel-handling equipment adequate for
weight involved.
