10.Set the implement lowering speed lever in the "LOCK"
position to hold the implement in the raised position.
1. Disengage the PTO, lower all implements to the
ground, place all control levers in their neutral
positions, set the parking brake, stop the engine,
remove the key from the ignition and lock the cab door
(if equipped). Leaving transmission in gear with the
engine stopped will not prevent tractor from rolling.
2. Make sure that the tractor has come to a complete
stop before dismounting.
3. Avoid parking on steep slopes, if at all possible park on
a firm and level surface; if not, park across a slope with
chock the wheels.
Failure to comply with this warning may allow the unit
to move and could cause injury or death.
1. Wait until all moving components have completely
stopped before getting off the tractor, connecting,
disconnecting, adjusting, cleaning, or servicing any
PTO driven equipment.
2. Keep the PTO shaft cover in place at all times.
Replace the PTO shaft cap when the shaft is not in
use.
3. Before installing or using PTO driven equipment, read
the manufacturer's manual and review the safety
labels attached to the equipment.
4. When operating stationary PTO driven equipment,
always apply the tractor parking brake and place
chocks behind and in front of the rear wheels. Stay
clear of all rotating parts. Never step over rotating
parts.
1. Use the 3-point hitch only with equipment designed for
3-point hitch usage.
2. When using a 3-point hitch mounted implement, be
sure to install the proper counterbalance weight on the
front of the tractor.
3. To avoid injury from separation:
Do not extend lift rod beyond the groove on the
