WARNING
Use protective clothing
Use protective clothing, e.g. gloves, when working with sharp
parts of the plow. Parts that come into contact with the soil can be
very sharp. Failure to handle these carefully may lead to injury.
Do not wear loose fitting or other inappropriate clothing. Loose
fitting items of clothing may become caught in parts of the plow.
Wear the proper protective clothing. Different environments may
require spesial clothing to preform the operation and maintenance
of the plow. Serious or fatal injury may be caused if these guidelines
are not followed.
