POWER GRADER

 

Always take the following precautions when operating this grader: 

 

Always wear protective goggles or safety glasses with side shields while grading to protect your eyes from possible thrown bits 
of dirt or gravel. 

 

Wear shoes with non-slip treads when using your DR Power Grader.  If you have safety shoes, we recommend wearing them.  
Do not use the grader while barefoot or wearing open sandals. 

 

Wear a helmet when operating an ATV. 

You must operate the Power Grader safely.  Unsafe operation can create a number of hazards for you.  Always take the following 
precautions when using this Grader: 

 

Read, understand, and follow all instructions in this manual.  Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of 
your Grader before using. 

 

Thoroughly inspect the area where your Grader will be used, and remove all stones, sticks, wire, pet supplies, or lawn toys, 
and any other foreign objects that you could run over.  Also, note the location of stumps, and other possible hazards that you 
should avoid during operation. 

 

Watch for traffic when operating in or near roadways.  Pay extra attention when operating near public roadways. 

 

When operating in a roadway, we suggest that you put out obstructions (marker cones or pails) to divert any traffic away from 
your work area. 

 

Be aware of your surroundings when operating the DR Power Grader, e.g. ditches, culverts, drop-offs, and hills. 

 

Never allow people who are unfamiliar with these instructions to use the DR Power Grader. 

 

To be safe, do not operate the grader near small children or pets, and never allow children to operate the Power Grader.  Stop 
the grading action when another person or pet approaches. 

 

Do not allow people to ride on the Grader. 

 

If you have to stop to remove any debris from the Grader, always shut off the tow vehicle’s engine and set the parking brake. 

 

Do not, under any conditions, remove, bend, cut, fit, weld, or otherwise alter standard parts on the DR Power Grader.  
Modifications to your machine could cause personal injuries and will void your warranty. 

 

While using the DR Power Grader, don't hurry or take things for granted. 

 

Do not operate the Grader when under the influence of alcohol or medication. 

 

Use the DR Power Grader only in daylight or good artificial light. 

The DR Power Grader must be operated safely to prevent or minimize the risk of minor or moderate injury.  Unsafe operation can 
create a number of hazards for you.  Always take the following precautions when operating this Power Grader: 

 

Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people, their property, and 
themselves. 

 

Do not use the DR Power Grader to drag, tow, or carry items. 

 

Never operate the DR Power Grader with a truck (2wd or 4wd); doing so will void the DR Power Grader warranty. 

 

Never leave the DR Power Grader unattended.  If you leave the area, shut off the tow vehicle, and remove the key. 

 

Keep all nuts and bolts tight and keep the equipment and attachments in good operating condition. 

 

Use only manufacturer-recommended replacement parts. 

 

Do not use the DR Power Grader in a manner not in accordance with these instructions.
