Table of Contents

Operating Checklist

Hazard control and accident prevention are dependent 

upon the awareness, concern, prudence, and proper 

training involved in the operation, transport, storage, and 

maintenance of the Straw Crimper. Therefore, it is 

absolutely essential that no one operates the Straw 

Crimper unless they have read, and fully understand the 

Operator’s Manual. Complete the Operating Checklist 

listed below before operating the Straw Crimper.

Operating Safety

DANGER

!

To avoid serious injury or death:  

Operate only on tractors equipped with a certified Roll-

Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and seat belt. Keep 

folding ROPS in the “locked up” position when 

appropriate. When ROPS is in the up position, the seat belt 

must be fastened snugly and securely around the operator to 

protect that person from falling and machine overturn.

Always secure equipment with solid, non-concrete supports 

before working under it. Never go under equipment 

supported by concrete blocks or hydraulics. Concrete can 

break, hydraulic lines can burst, and/or hydraulic controls 

can be actuated even when power to hydraulics is off.

Do not allow anyone near the tractor or implement while 

they are operating. Stop operation if bystanders are too 

close. They can be hit by flying projectiles, become 

entangled in the equipment, or ran over.

Keep bystanders and animals away from machinery while 

in operation. They can become entangled in the equipment, 

pinched, hit by throwing objects, ran over, etc.

Section 3: 

Operating Instructions

WARNING

!

To avoid serious injury or death:  

Make sure safety labels are in their proper location and are 

in good condition before operating the attached implement. 

Read and obey all instructions on the labels.

Allow only persons to operate this implement who have 

fully read and comprehended this manual, and who have 

been properly trained in the safe operation of this 

implement. Serious injury or death can result from the 

inability to read, understand, and follow instructions 

provided in this manual.

Never carry riders on the implement or tractor. Riders can 

obstruct the operator’s view, interfere with controls, be 

pinched by moving components, become entangled in 

rotating components, struck by objects, thrown about, fall 

off and be run over, etc.

Do not operate crimper at speeds exceeding 5 mph. 

Exceeding 5 mph can damage the frame and/or discs.

Always keep your feet and legs out from under the Straw 

Crimper.

Do not use implement for a purpose other than the work it 

is designed to do as defined in this manual.

Do not use implement as a man lift, work platform or as a 

wagon to carry objects. It is not properly designed or 

guarded for this use.

Do not use implement to tow other equipment. Doing so can 

result in loss of control and damage the equipment.

Avoid exposure to dust containing crystalline silica 

particles. This dust can cause serious injury to the lungs 

(silicosis). Because crystalline silica is a basic component 

of sand and granite, many activities at construction sites 

produce dust containing crystalline silica. Trenching, 

sawing, and boring of material containing crystalline silica 

can produce dust containing crystalline silica.

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. Always 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.
