When maneuvering close to buildings
or passing through narrow areas, be
sure to allow sufficient clearance for the
implement and tractor. NEVER operate tractor
and implement under trees with low hanging
limbs. Operators can be knocked off tractor and
run over by the implement.
This Arena Ace
is only designed for
speeds less than 8 mph. Reduce speed
on rough surfaces.
When the use of hand tools is required
to perform any part of assembly,
installation, adjustment, maintenance,
repairing, removal or moving the S-Tine, be sure
the tools used are designed and recommended
by the tool manufacturer for that specific task.
Personal protection equipment
including hard hats, safety glasses,
safety shoes, and gloves are
recommended during assembly, installation,
operation, adjustments, maintenance, repairing,
removal, or moving the Arena Ace.
Always use two people
to handle heavy,
unwieldy components moving the Arena
Ace.
Never place any part of your body
where
it would be in danger, if movement should
occur during assembly, operation,
maintenance, repairing, or moving the
Arena Ace.
Never place yourself
between the
tractor and Arena Ace while implement is
in operation.
A heavy load
can cause instability of the tractor.
Use extreme care during travel. Slow
down on turns and watch out for bumps.
The tractor may need front counter-
weights to counter-balance the weight of the
Arena Ace.
Never use alcoholic beverages or drugs
which
can hinder alertness or coordination
while operating this equipment. Consult
your doctor about operating this machine
while taking prescription and some over-the-
counter medications.
DO NOT ALLOW RIDERS
on the Arena Ace
or tractor at any time. There is NO safe
place for any riders. NEVER ALLOW
CHILDREN TO OPERATE IMPLEMENT
OR BE AROUND SHARP EDGES.
Before you operate the Arena
Ace,
check over all pins, bolts and
connections to be sure all are securely
in place. Replace any damaged or worn parts
immediately.
Consult local utility companies
to make
certain there are no buried gas lines,
electrical cables, etc., in the work area
before beginning operation.
Do NOT allow anyone
who is not familiar with
the safety rules and operation instructions
to use this Arena Ace.
Never replace any bolt
with any length other
than what is specified in this manual. A
longer, or protruding fastener is more
likely to grab loose clothing or gloves
which can result in serious injury or death.
Watch for
hidden hazards on the surface
during operation.
Turn curves
or go up or down hills only at a low
speed and at a gradual steering angle.
Make certain that at least 20% of the
tractor’s weight is on the front wheels to
maintain safe steering. Slow down on rough or
uneven surfaces.
Check that all hardware
is properly
installed. Always tighten all bolts to
proper torque. Make sure attachment
is properly secured, adjusted and in good
operating condition.
Where replacement parts are necessary
for
periodic maintenance and servicing, genuine
factory replacement parts must be used
to restore your equipment to original
specifications. The manufacturer will not
be responsible for the use of unapproved parts
and/or accessories and the damages that can
result in their use.
Keep alert and watch
the front as
well as the rear when working with
equipment. DO NOT operate close to
ditches or creeks.
Make adjustments to implement
only when it
is attached to a tractor and blocked up. Always
keep all persons and children away from
area when performing adjustments,
service or maintenance. Worn edges
can seriously affect the Arena Ace’s operation.
Check for wear before each use and replace as
necessary.
