Operator Safety Instructions and Practices
Never crawl under a raised Implement supported solely by the Power Unit boom. Release
of the control lever or mechanical failure will result in the Implement falling and possible
injury or death. Always securely block up the Implement before crawling underneath to
perform repairs and service.
(SPU-33)
Never operate the Power Unit or Implement until you have read and
completely understand this Manual, the Power Unit Operator’s Manual,
and each of the Safety Messages found in the Manual or on the Power
Unit and Implement. Learn how to stop the Power Unit engine suddenly
in an emergency. Never allow inexperienced or untrained personnel too
operate the Power Unit and Implement without supervision. Make sure
the operator has fully read and understood the manuals prior to
operation.
(SPU-36)
Always maintain the safety signs in good readable condition. If the safety signs are missing,
damaged, or unreadable, obtain and install replacement safety signs immediately.
(SG-5)
The operator and all support personnel should wear hard hats, safety
shoes, safety glasses, and proper hearing protection at all times for
protection from injury including injury from items that may be thrown by
the equipment.
(SG-16)
PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE
PERMANENT HEARING LOSS! Tractors with or without an Implement
attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent hearing loss.
We recommend that you always wear hearing protection if the noise in
the Operator’s position exceeds 80db. Noise over 85db over an
extended period of time will cause severe hearing loss. Noise over 90db
adjacent to the Operator over an extended period of time will cause
permanent or total hearing loss.
NOTE:
Hearing loss from loud noise
[from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other such sources close to the
ear] is cumulative over a lifetime without hope of natural recovery.
(SG-I7)
Always read carefully and comply fully with the manufacturer’s
instructions when handling oil, solvents, cleansers, and any other
chemical agent.
(SG-22)
