SAFETY
Only operate the snow blower or plow in conditions were you have clear visibility in daylight
or with adequate artificial lighting. Never blow snow or plow and in darkness or in conditions
where you cannot clearly see at least 100 yards in front and to the sides of the Tractor and
Snow Blower. Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby, steep slopes,
ditches, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and foreign objects. If you are
unable to clearly see these types of items, discontinue snow blowing or plowing.
Extreme care should be taken when operating near loose objects
such as gravel, rocks, wire and other debris. Foreign objects
should be removed from the site to prevent machine damage and/
or bodily injury or even death. Any object that cannot be removed
must be clearly marked and carefully avoided by the operator. Stop
moving immediately if the Implement strikes a foreign object.
Repair all damage before resuming snow blowing.
Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains can become entangled in the
operating parts of the Snow Blower. These items could then swing outside the housing at
high speeds. Such a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or
even death. Inspect the work area for such objects before snow blowing. Remove any like
object from the site. Never allow the auger to contact such items.
(SSB-3)
Never run the Tractor engine in a closed building or without adequate ventilation. The
exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health.
(SG-23)
Do not exceed the rated PTO speed for the Implement. Excessive PTO speeds can cause
Implement driveline or blade failures resulting in serious injury or death.
(SG-26)
Operate the Tractor and/or Implement controls only while properly seated in the Tractor seat
with the seat belt securely fastened around you. Inadvertent movement of the Tractor or
Implement may cause serious injury or death.
(SG-29)
In case of mechanical difficulty during operation, place the transmission in the park
position, set the parking brake, shut down all power, including the PTO and the engine and
remove the key. Wait until all rotating motion has stopped before dismounting.
(SG-39)
Never leave the Implement and Power Unit unattended while the Implement is in the raised
position. Accidental operation of a lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause the
implement to suddenly fall causing serious injury or possible death to anyone who might
inadvertently be under the Implement. Lower the implement carefully to the ground. Do not
put hands or feet under lifted components.
