SAFETY
Never allow children to operate, ride on, or come close to the Tractor or
Implement. Usually, 16-17 year-old children who are mature and
responsible can operate the implement with adult supervision, if they have read and
understand the Operator’s Manuals, been trained in proper operation of the tractor and
Implement, and are physically large enough to reach and operate the controls easily.
(SG-11)
Do not mount the Tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount the Tractor
only when the Tractor and all moving parts are completely stopped.
(SG-12)
Start tractor only when properly seated in the Tractor seat. Starting a
tractor in gear can result in injury or death. Read the Tractor operators
manual for proper starting instructions.

component unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up
to prevent sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious
injury or even death.
(SG-14)
The operator and all support personnel should wear hard hats, safety
shoes, safety glasses, and proper hearing protection at all times for
protection from injury including injury from items that may be thrown by the equipment.

PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE
PERMANENT HEARING LOSS! Tractors with or without an Implement
attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent hearing loss. We recommend that
you always wear hearing protection if the noise in the Operator’s position exceeds 80db.
Noise over 85db over an extended period of time will cause severe hearing loss. Noise
over 90db adjacent to the Operator over an extended period of time will cause permanent or
total hearing loss. NOTE: Hearing loss from loud noise [from tractors, chain saws, radios,
and other such sources close to the ear] is cumulative over a lifetime without hope of natural
recovery.
