1.3.1 General Information
Before doing any unplugging, lubricating, servicing,
cleaning, or adjusting of the machine:
• Park the machine on a solid level surface.
• Make sure the transmission is in gear and apply
the parking brake.
• Turn off the control console, if equipped.
• Stop the engine and take the key with you.
• Look and Listen! Make sure all moving parts
have stopped. Do not attempt to service or
adjust the machine until all moving parts have

Do not pull crop or any other object from the machine while the machine engine is running. Moving parts
can pull you in faster than you can move away.
Check for loose, broken, missing, or damaged parts. Make sure the machine is in good repair. Make sure
all guards and shields are in position.
Check all nuts and bolts periodically for tightness, especially wheel mounting hardware.
After unplugging, lubricating, servicing, cleaning, or adjusting the machine make sure all tools and
equipment have been removed.
Make sure electrical connectors are clean and free of dirt or grease before connecting.
Never service, check or adjust drive chains or belts
while the engine is running.
