2.3  EQUIPMENT SAFETY GUIDELINES

•  Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of the 

main concerns in the design and development of 

equipment. However, every year many accidents 

occur, which could have been avoided, by a few 

seconds of thought and a more careful approach to 

handling equipment.

•  You, the operator, can avoid many accidents by 

following the precautions in this section. Insist that 

those working with you, or for you, follow them also.

•  Replace any safety or instructional signs that are 

missing or illegible. The location of these safety signs 

are indicated in this manual in Section 2.12.

•  Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs which can 

hinder alertness or coordination while using this 

equipment. Consult your doctor about using this 

machine while taking prescription medications.

•  Under no circumstances should young children be 

allowed to work with this equipment.

•  The operator should be a responsible, properly 

trained and physically able person. They should be 

familiar with machinery and trained in this 

equipment's operations.

•  If the elderly are assisting with work, their physical 

limitations need to be recognized and 

accommodated.

•  If the tow vehicle is a tractor, it should be  

equipped with a Roll Over Protective 

Structure (ROPS) and a seat belt.

•  Never exceed the limits of the REDDI-LYNX. If its 

ability to do a job, or to do so safely, is in question - 

DON'T TRY IT.

•  Do not modify the equipment in any way. 

Unauthorized modification may impair the function 

and life of the equipment, and may result in serious 

injury or death.

2.4  SAFETY DECALS

2:4:1  General Information:

•  Keep safety decals clean and legible at all times.

•  Replace decals that are missing or have become 

illegible.

•  Replaced parts that displayed a safety decal should 

also display the current sign.

•  Safety decals displayed in Section 2.11 each have a 

part number located below the sign. Use this part 

number when ordering replacements.

•  Safety decals are available from your authorized 

Distributor or Dealer Parts Department.

NOTE:

Call Mandako directly if you are unfamiliar with who your 

local Dealer/Distributor is.

2:4:2  How to Install Safety Decals:

1.  Be sure that the installation area is clean, dry and 

degreased.

2.  Be sure temperature is above 50°F (10°C).

3.  Determine exact position before you remove the 

paper backing. (See Section 2.12)

4.  Remove the smallest portion of the split backing.

5.  Align the decal over the specified area and carefully 

press the small portion with the exposed adhesive in 

place.

6.  Slowly peel back the remaining paper and carefully 

smooth the rest of the decal in place.

7.  Small air pockets can be pierced with a pin and 

smoothed out using the piece of the paper backing.
