Do not operate close to ditches or creeks. Slow down when operating over rough ground.
Always be sure the implement is in the fully raised and locked position when in transport.
Pull from drawbar only. Failure to hitch properly could cause tractor or ATV to flip over, resulting in serious injury
or death.
Reduce speed on slopes and sharp turns to minimize tipping or loss of control. Be careful when changing
directions on slopes. Do not start or stop suddenly on slopes. Avoid operation on steep slopes.
Never exceed the limits of a piece of machinery. If its ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in question –
DON’T TRY IT.
Avoid excessive speed during operation.
Make adjustments only when the implement is attached to the tractor or ATV.
Always ease the tractor or ATV into the load. It may be necessary to reposition and take less “bite” on the
material to move it safely.
Watch for and avoid hidden obstructions, i.e., buried pipes, rocks, concrete piers, uneven concrete slabs,
stumps, etc., when operating landscape rakes, box scrapers, or other ground engaging implements.
Never operate tractor and implement under trees with low hanging limbs. Operators can be knocked off the
tractor and then run over by the implement.
Stay alert for holes, rocks and roots in the terrain and other hidden hazards. Keep away from drop-offs.
Use extreme care and maintain minimum ground speed when transporting on hillside, over rough ground and
when operating close to ditches or fences. Be careful when turning sharp corners.
Pass diagonally through sharp dips and avoid sharp drops to prevent “hanging up” tractor and implement.
Practice will improve your skills in maneuvering rough terrain.
Always angle down slopes; never across the face. Avoid operation on steep slopes. Slow down on sharp turns
and slopes to prevent tipping and/or loss of control.
Always shut off power unit and shift to “Park” or set brakes when leaving tractor or ATV. Always lower imple-
ment to ground. Remove key when leaving tractor or ATV unattended.
Before operating equipment: if you have any questions regarding the proper assembly or operation, contact
your dealer or representative.
