These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products described in
this manual.
Prepare for Emergencies
Be prepared if a fire starts.
Keep a first aid kit and fire
extinguisher handy.
Keep emergency numbers for
doctor, ambulance, hospital, and
fire department near phone.
Avoid High
Pressure Fluids Hazard
Escaping fluid under pressure can
penetrate the skin causing serious
injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving
pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic lines or performing work
on the system.
Make sure all hydraulic fluid
connections are tight and all
hydraulic hoses and lines are in
good condition before applying
pressure to the system.
Use a piece of paper or
cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to
check for suspected leaks.
Wear protective gloves and safety
glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems.
DO NOT DELAY. If an accident
occurs, see a doctor familiar with
this type of injury immediately. Any
fluid injected into the skin or eyes
must be treated within
a few hours or
gangrene may
result.
Tire Safety
Tire changing can be dangerous
and should be preformed by
trained personnel using the
correct tools and equipment.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose long
enough to allow you to stand to
one side and NOT in front of or
over the tire assembly. Use a
safety cage if available.
When removing and installing
wheels, use wheel handling
equipment adequate for the
weight involved.
Use Seat Belt and ROPS
Operate only tractors equipped
with Roll-Over Protective
Structure (ROPS) and seat belt.
Fasten seat belt snugly and
securely to help protect against
serious injury or death from falling
and tractor overturn.
Wearing protective equipment
such as safety shoes, safety
glasses, hard hat, and ear plugs is
highly recommended.
