SRW1400 10/04
WARNING!
Relieve hydraulic pressure prior to doing any maintenance or repair
work on the Implement. Place the implement on the ground or
securely supported on blocks or stands, disengage the PTO, and turn
off the engine. Push and pull the control Levers or Joystick several
times to relieve pressure prior to starting any maintenance or repair
work.
(SBM-6)
WARNING!
When attaching the Implement input driveline to the Tractor PTO, it is
important that the connecting yoke spring activated locking collar
slides freely and the locking balls are seated securely in the groove on
the Tractor PTO shaft. A driveline not attached correctly to the Tractor
PTO shaft could come loose and result in personal injury and damage
to the Implement.
(S3PT-17)
DANGER!
Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in
park, and set the parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to
connect or disconnect the Implement and Tractor hitches.
(S3PT-15)
DANGER! There are obvious and hidden potential hazards in the operation of this
Implement as in all power-driven or pulled equipment. REMEMBER!
This machine is often operated in rough terrain conditions that include tall
grass, weeds, gullies, holes, slopes, hidden obstructions and the like.
Serious injury or even death may occur unless care is taken to assure the
safety of the operator and bystanders in the area. Do not operate this
machine with anyone in the immediate area.
(S3PT-7)
WARNING!
Never operate the Tractor and unit if the Implement input driveline is
directly connected to the Tractor transmission. Tractor braking distances
can be substantially increased by the momentum of the rotating implement
driving the Tractor transmission even though the Tractor clutch has been
disengaged. Install an over running clutch between the Tractor PTO and
the Implement driveline to prevent this potentially dangerous situation.
