SPC 20 OPERATOR’S MANUAL
SAFETY B-11
REMOVE ACCUMULATED CROP
DEBRIS
The build up of chaff and crop debris in
the engine compartment, on the engine,
and near moving parts is a fire hazard.
Check and clean these areas frequently.
Before performing any inspection or
service, shut off the engine, set the
parking brake, and remove key.
SERVICE COOLING SYSTEM SAFELY
Explosive release of fluids from a
pressurized cooling system can cause
serious burns.
Shut off engine. Only remove filler cap
when cool enough to touch with bare
hands. Slowly loosen cap to first stop to
relieve pressure before removing
completely.
HANDLE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS SAFELY
Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can
cause serious injury. Potentially hazardous
chemicals used with ALMACO equipment include
such items as lubricants, coolants, paints, and
adhesives.
A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides
specific details on chemical products: physical
and health hazards, safety procedures, and
emergency response techniques.
Check the MSDS before you start any job using
hazardous chemicals, so you will know the risks
and how to handle the chemical safely. Follow
the procedures and use the recommended
equipment.
Contact ALMACO for MSDS's on chemical products used
on ALMACO equipment.
