GENERAL SAFETY (continued)
6. Wear close-fitting clothing and cover long
hair. Never wear dangling items such as
scarves or bracelets.
7. Keep hands, feet, clothing and hair away
from moving parts. Never attempt to clear
obstructions or objects from a machine
while the engine is running.
8. Keep all shields in place. Never alter or
remove safety equipment. Make sure
driveline guards can rotate independently of
the shaft and can telescope freely.

approved by the equipment manufacturer.
Substituted parts may not meet strength,
design, or safety requirements.
10. Do not modify the machine. Unauthorized
modifications may impair the function
