Working
• Never place any part of body under implement when implement is running. See
implement's manual for safe use.
• Always tie string on safety switch to operator's body so that machine stops
when operator falls off machine.
• Do not allow bystanders to come near machine when working.
• Running implement can throw stones or debris and cause injuries and damages
to nearby people, animals, crops, buildings, automobiles, etc. Pay attention to
the safety of surroundings and plan ahead when working.
• Never attempt to work with implement's shield open (if applicable).
• When working, drive forward. Machine is intended to perform the intended job
while moving forward, and this best prevents stones and debris from being
thrown.
• Turn implement switch to [ON] only when working. Keep it in [OFF] position all
the other times.
• Never attempt to work brush on or near the edge of a ditch or bank. Shoulder of
a ditch or bank may collapse. Pay extra care after heavy rain or earthquake.
• Inspect the work site beforehand; inspect terrain and locate holes, drops, or
obstacles. Also inspect overhead obstacles such as branches of a tree. Pay
special attention when working near these areas.
• Only skilled operator is allowed to use this machine under difficult
circumstances.
