THE OPERATOR
Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition and mental health and not under the influence of any substance (drugs, alcohol)
which might impair vision, dexterity or judgment.
Do not operate a
77C/107C DRILL
when you are fatigued. Be alert - If you get tired while operating your
77C/107C
DRILL, take a break. Fatigue may result in loss of control. Working with any farm equipment can be strenuous. If
you have any condition that might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with your doctor before operating
Proper Clothing
Clothing must be sturdy and snug-fitting, but allow complete freedom of movement.
Avoid loosefitting jackets, scarfs, neckties, jewelry, flared or cuffed pants, unconfined
long hair or anything that could become entangled with the machine.
Protect your hands with gloves when handling discs and coulters. Heavy duty, nonslip
gloves improve your grip and protect your hands.
Good footing is most important. Wear sturdy boots with nonslip soles. Steel-toed safety
boots are recommended.
To reduce the risk of injury to your eyes never operate a 77C/107C DRILL unless
wearing goggles or properly fitted safety glasses with adequate top and side protection.
Tractor noise may damage your hearing. Always wear sound barriers (ear plugs or ear
mufflers) to protect your hearing. Continual and regular users should have their hearing
checked regularly.
