SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-
cern, judgement, and proper training of person-
nel involved in the operation, transport, mainte-
nance and storage of equipment.
It has been said “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.”We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
TRAINING
• Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information.
(Replacement manuals are available from sell-
ing dealer.) Failure to follow instructions or
safety rules can result in serious injury or
death.
• If you do not understand any part of this man
-
ual and need assistance, see your dealer.
• Operators must be instructed in and be capa
-
ble of the safe operation of the equipment, its
attachments, and all controls. Do not allow any-
one to operate this equipment without proper
instructions.
• Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate equipment.
• Train all new personnel and review instruction’s
frequently with existing workers. A person who
has not read and understood all operating and
safety instructions is not qualified to operate the
machine. An untrained operator exposes himself
and bystanders to possible serious injury or
death.
PREPARATION
•
Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to
avoid getting caught in moving parts.Wear sturdy,
rough-soled work shoes and protective equip-
ment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropri-
ate.
• Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
TRANSPORTATION
• Always comply with all state and local laws
governing highway safety and lighting and
marking requirements.
• Never allow riders on power unit or attach
-
ment.
• Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.
• Use extreme care and reduce ground speed
on slopes and rough terrain.
• Do not operate or transport equipment while
under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Consult
your doctor about operating this machine while
taking prescription medications.
OPERATION
• Never go underneath equipment (lowered to
the ground or raised) unless it is properly
blocked and secured. Never place any part of
the body underneath equipment or between
moveable parts even when the engine has
been turned off.
• Always comply with all state and local laws
governing highway safety and lighting and
marking requirements.
• Operate only in daylight or good artificial
light.
• Keep bystanders away from equipment.
