side or over rough ground, and when operating close to ditches, fences, or water. 

l

Reduce speed on slopes and in sharp turns to minimize potential tipping or loss of
control.  Use caution when changing directions on slopes. 

l

Be alert for holes in the terrain as well as any other hidden hazard.  Always drive
slowly over rough ground. 

l

Disengage the blades, stop the engine, set the parking brake, and remove the key
before dismounting the tractor or making any adjustments to the Articulator.

l

Stop the tractor immediately upon striking any obstruction.  Disengage the blades,
turn off the engine, set the parking brake, remove the key, and inspect the tractor
and Articulator for any damage.  Always repair any damage before resuming opera-
tion of the Articulator.

l

Stay well clear of any and all moving parts. 

l

Keep hands and feet away from the blades at all times during operation. 

l

Take all possible precautions when leaving the tractor and Articulator unattended:
disengage the blades, turn off the engine, set the parking brake, and remove the
key anytime you leave the tractor and Articulator unattended.

l

If your tractor is equipped with headlights and hazard lights, always activate them
whenever crossing or accessing any roadways, driveways, or parking lots.   Watch
for oncoming traffic.

l

Handle fuel with caution - it is explosive!  Always use approved fuel containers;
never handle fuel near an open flame; never use fuel as a solvent; never fuel the
tractor while the engine is running or hot; never fuel the Articulator indoors; always
clean up any spilled fuel; never smoke around fuel.
