SAFETY
trical parts may be damaged or unexpected acci-
dent may occur.
(4) When disconnecting the battery cables, discon-
nect the earth cable (-) first without fail. When
connecting the battery cables, connect the posi-
tive cable (+) first. Disconnecting or connecting
in wrong order may lead to a short circuit or
sparks.
U
TO HANDLE BOOSTER CABLES
When using booster cables, pay attention to the
following items for safe operation:
(1) Before connecting cables, remove the vent
plugs. This will lower the force in case of explo-
sion.
(2) Before connecting cables, be sure to stop the
engine. Otherwise unexpected accidents may
occur.
(3) Use booster cables with sufficient electrical
capacity. A cable of inadequate capacity will
cause generation of heat, which may lead to a
fire.

SAFETY DECALS
The labels are stuck on the tractor. You should
of course read the safety instructions in the man-
ual. But never fail to read the labels on the ma-
chine as well.
• The labels should always be clearly seen, that is,
nothing should obscure them.
• When they have become dirty, wash them with
soap water and wipe off with soft cloth.
• If any of them are torn or lost, order new labels
from your dealer. Their codes are mentioned in
“SAFETY DECALS AND THEIR LOCA-
TION.”
• A new label should be placed in the same place
where the old one was located.
• When sticking on a new label, clean the place to
enable the label to stick and squeeze out all air
bubbles trapped under it.
When disconnecting battery cords,
disconnect negative cord first.
When connecting battery cords,
connect positive cord first.
