(Safety Rules continued from previous page)
Do not stop, start, or change directions sud-
denly on slopes.
Use extreme care and reduce ground speed on
slopes and rough terrain.
Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during
operation.
Stop power unit and equipment immediately
upon striking an obstruction. Turn off engine,
remove key, inspect, and repair any damage before
resuming operation.
Before changing positions of manual swing, tilt,
or angle positions:
• Park tractor on level ground, apply parking
brake, level implement boom, shut off tractor,
and remove key.
• Make manual changes slowly and carefully
to prevent hazardous movement of mecha-
nisms.
• Never stand in positions where you could
become entrapped during adjustment changes
or if the 3-point hitch suddenly lowers.
Always secure lock pins with safety pins to pre-
vent lock pins from bumping out of the positioning
holes. Failure to do so may result in accidents and/
or damage to blade.
Before dismounting power unit or performing
any service or maintenance, follow these steps:
disengage power to equipment, lower the 3-point
hitch and all raised components to the ground,
operate valve levers to release any hydraulic pres-
sure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove key,
and unfasten seat belt.
NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT. Never
place any part of the body underneath equipment
or between moveable parts even when the engine
has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak down,
hydraulic system failures, mechanical failures, or
movement of control levers can cause equipment
to drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe
injury or death.
• Service work does not require going under-
neath.
• Read Operator's Manual for service instruc-
tions or have service performed by a qualified
dealer.
