SAFETY
Connecting or Disconnecting Implement Safety Instructions and
Practices
Never leave the Implement and Power Unit unattended while the Implement is in the raised
position. Accidental operation of a lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause the
implement to suddenly fall causing serious injury or possible death to anyone who might
inadvertently be under the Implement. Lower the implement carefully to the ground. Do not
put hands or feet under lifted components.
(SPU-3)
The center of gravity of a Power Unit equipped with a front-mounted Implement is shifted to
the front and removes weight from the rear wheels. The Power Unit should maintain at
least 25% total weight with the maximum load in the bucket or attachment on the rear
wheels to prevent tipping forward, loss of steering control, and possible injury. Add
counterweight if required when operating on slopes and proceed with the load uphill to
prevent tipping. Reference the Power Unit’s Operator’s Manual or an authorized dealer for
information on adding additional weight.
(SL-37)
Your driving vision may be reduced or impaired by the tractor, cab, or implement. Before
driving on public roadways identify any limited vision areas, and make adjustments to your
operating position, mirrors, and the implement transport position so that you can clearly
see the area where you will be traveling, and any traffic that may approach you. Failure to
maintain adequate vision of the public roadway and traffic can result in serious injury or
even death.
(STI-10)
Do not stand or allow bystander or coworkers between the loader and the
tractor while installing or disconnecting the loader from the tractor. Keep
hands and body clear of the loader and the loader mounts. Serious injury
or death can result from a person being crushed between the tractor and
loader.
(SL-03)
Never allow anyone to get under the loader or attachment or to reach
through the loader lift arms when raised. Serious injury could result from
crushing or pinching by the loader or attachment.
(SL-06)
Make sure the loader is properly attached to the tractor and the retaining pins securely lock
the loader into position. Improper mounting of the loader onto the tractor can result in the
loader falling causing serious injury.
