Operating Checklist

Safety Information

DANGER

!

To avoid serious injury or death:  

Hydraulic fluid under high pressure will penetrate the skin 

and/or eyes causing a serious injury. Wear protective gloves 
and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic 
systems. Use a piece of cardboard or wood rather than 
hands when searching for leaks. A doctor familiar with this 
type of injury must treat the injury within a few hours or 
gangrene may result. DO NOT DELAY.

Do not engage power take-off while hooking-up or 

unhooking the driveline, or while someone is standing near 
the driveline. A person’s body and/or clothing can become 
entangled in the driveline.

All guards and shields must be installed and in good 

working condition while operating the implement.

Tractor power take-off shaft shield, driveline shields, and 

gearbox shaft shields must be installed and in good working 
condition to avoid injury or death from driveline 
entanglement and projectiles flying off of the driveline.

Check

Page

Check chain tension. 
Refer to “Drive Chain Take-up”.

14

Check oil level in chaincase. 
Refer to “Chain Case Lubrication”.

20

Check that all plugs have been replaced properly 
in chaincase.

20

Check that all bolts and nuts are tight.

Be certain all guards and shields are in place and 
secured.
Grease driveline shaft and all other grease fittings. 
Refer to “Lubrication”.

20

Do not operate a broken or bent driveline. Such a driveline 

will break apart while rotating at high speeds and can cause 
serious injury or death. Always remove implement from 
service until the damaged driveline can be repaired or 
replaced.

Never carry riders on the implement or power machine. 

Riders can obstruct the operator’s view, interfere with 
control of the equipment, be pinched by moving 
components, become entangled in rotating components, be 
struck by objects, be thrown or fall from the equipment, etc..

Never make contact with underground utilities such as 

electrical power lines, gas lines, phone lines, etc. They can 
cause serious injury or death from electrocution, explosion, 
or fire. If in doubt, call 811 (USA) before digging so that 
they can mark the location of underground services in the 
area. For contact information, see Dig Safe in the 
“Important Safety Information” starting on page 1.

Always place tractor in park or engage park brake, shut 

tractor off, remove switch key, and wait for all moving parts 
to stop before dismounting tractor.

WARNING

!

To avoid serious injury or death:  

Allow only persons to operate this implement who have 

fully read and comprehended this manual, who have been 
properly trained in the safe operation of this implement, and 
who are age 16 or older. Serious injury or death can result 
from the inability to read, understand, and follow 
instructions provided in this manual.

Never operate ditcher with bystanders within several 

hundred feet or in the raised position. The ditcher can throw 
object at high speeds resulting in injury or death.

Never clean impeller with PTO engaged. Keep hands, feet, 

hair and clothing away from rotating impeller blades. A 
person’s body and/or clothing can become entangled or 
sheared off in the impeller resulting in serious injury or 
death. 

Do not operate ditcher with out-of-balance blades, 

excessively worn blades, or with excessively worn blade 
bolts. Such blades can break loose at high speeds causing 
serious injury or death. Replace all four blades at the same 
time.

Make certain driveline yokes are securely fastened at each 

end. A loose yoke can work free allowing the driveline to 
rotate uncontrollably causing implement damage and 
bodily injury or death to anyone nearby.

Some tractors are equipped with multi power take-off 

speeds. Do not exceed 540 rpm power take-off speed or 
equipment breakage may result.

A rotating driveline must not exceed an angle of 25 degrees 

up or down, and never engage a driveline while at an angle 
exceeding 25 degrees up or down. The driveline can break 
and send projectiles.
