7600A   06/05

WARNING!

Before transporting  the Snow Blower, position the snow discharge
shoot in the center position to reduce the possibility of blocking
the operators vision.  

(SSB-21)

WARNING!

Y

our driving vision may be reduced or impaired by the tractor, cab, or

implement.  Before driving on public roadways identify any limited
vision areas, and make adjustments to your operating position, mirrors,
and the implement transport position so that you can clearly see the area
where you will be traveling, and any traffic that may approach you.
Failure to maintain adequate vision of the public roadway and traffic
can result in serious injury or even death.

  

(STI-10)

Maintenance and Service Safety Instructions and Practices

DANGER!

Make sure the PTO shield, integral driveline shields, and input shields are
installed when using PTO-driven equipment.   Always replace any shield
if it is damaged or missing.

   (S3PT-8)

WARNING!

Relieve hydraulic pressure prior to doing any maintenance or repair work
on the Implement.  Place the Implement on the ground or securely
blocked up, disengage the PTO, and turn off the tractor engine.  Push
and pull the Remote Cylinder lever in and out several times prior to
starting any maintenance or repair work. 

(S3PT-9)

WARNING!

Always maintain the safety decals in good readable condition. If the
decals are missing, damaged, or unreadable, obtain and install replace-
ment decals immediately.

 

(SG-5)

WARNING!

Do not modify or alter this Implement.   Do not permit anyone to modify
or alter this Implement, any of its components or any Implement
function.  

(SG-8)

DANGER!

Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted component
unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up to prevent
sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious injury or even
death. 

   (SG-14)

WARNING!

Never attempt to lubricate, adjust, or remove material from the
Implement while it is in motion or while tractor engine is running.  Make
sure the tractor engine is off before working on the Implement.

                                        (SG-20)
