2 - SAFETY INFORMATION
If the system is inoperable, the system must be repaired.
Power Take-Off (PTO)
PTO-driven machinery can cause death or serious injury.
Before working on or near the PTO shaft or servicing or
clearing the driven tractor, put the PTO lever in the disen-
gage position, stop the engine, and remove the key.
Whenever a PTO is in operation, a guard must be in place
to prevent death or injury to the operator or bystanders.
When doing stationary PTO work, keep clear of all moving
parts and make sure appropriate guards are in place.
Never use a spline adapter:
• Match the right tractor PTO spline and speed with the
PTO driveshaft provided with an implement. This will
assure proper geometry and operating speed.
• Never operate
540 RPM implements at 1000 RPM .
• Never operate
1000 RPM implements at 540 RPM .
• Use of PTO adapters will void the warranty of the drive
shaft, and the PTO drive train of the machine and im-
plement.
• For correct hitch geometry, see the implement opera-
tor’s manual.
Reflectors and warning lights
Flashing amber warning lights must be used when oper-
ating on public roads. Location and use of flashing amber
warning lights is shown on
Cab controls - Control .
Seat belts
Seat belts must be worn at all times.
Seat belt inspection and maintenance:
• Keep seat belts in good condition.
• Keep sharp edges and items than can cause damage
away from the belts.
• Periodically check belts, buckles, retractors, tethers,
slack take-up system, and mounting bolts for damage
and wear.
• Replace all parts that have damage or wear.
• Replace belts that have cuts that can make the belt
weak.
• Check that bolts are tight on the seat bracket or mount-
ing.
• If belt is attached to seat, make sure seat or seat brack-
ets are mounted securely.
• Keep seat belts clean and dry.
• Clean belts only with soap solution and warm water.
• Do not use bleach or dye on the belts because this can
make the belts weak.
