ATTENTION - BE ALERT - YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED
H&S Manufacturing Co. always takes the operator and their safety into consideration and guards exposed
moving parts for their protection. However, some areas cannot be guarded or shielded in order to assure proper
operation. In addition, the operators manual and decals on the machine itself warn you of further danger
and should be read and observed closely.

working, or adjusting on machine.

DO NOT step up on machine at any time.
DO NOT allow minors to operate or be near the machine.
Loose or floppy clothing should not be worn by the operator.
Stay clear of hydraulic lines, they may be under extreme pressure or heat.

and lowering the rake wheels.
For transport, always make sure that the hair pin at the rear of the lift pipes, and the transport lock bars
