SAFETY
DANGER! Never allow children to operate or ride on the Tractor or Implement.
(SGM-11)
WARNING!
Do not mount the Tractor while the tractor is moving.
Mount the Tractor only when the Tractor and all moving
parts are completely stopped.
(SG-12)
DANGER!
Start tractor only when properly seated in the Tractor seat. Starting a tractor in
gear can result in injury or death. Read the Tractor operators manual for proper
starting instructions.
(SG-13)
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!
The operator and all support personnel should wear hard hats,
safety shoes, safety glasses, and proper hearing protection at all
times for protection from injury including injury from items thrown
by the equipment.
(SG-16)
CAUTION! PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE PER-
MANENT HEARING LOSS!
Tractors with or without an Implement
attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent hearing
loss. We recommend that you always wear hearing protection if
the noise in the Operator’s position exceeds 80db. Noise over
85db over an extended period of time will cause severe hearing
loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to the Operator over an extended
period of time will cause permanent or total hearing loss.
Note:
Hearing loss from loud noise [from tractors, chain saws, radios,
and other such sources close to the ear] is cumulative over a
lifetime without hope of natural recovery.
(SG-I7)
DANGER! Do not operate this Equipment with hydraulic oil leaking. Oil is
expensive and its presence could present a hazard. Do not check for
leaks with your hand! Use a piece of heavy paper or cardboard. High-
pressure oil streams from breaks in the line could penetrate the skin
and cause tissue damage including gangrene. If oil does penetrate the
skin, have the injury treated immediately by a physician knowledge-
able and skilled in this procedure.
