Tire Safety
FIG. 22:
Check tires for cuts, bulges and correct
pressure. Replace worn or damaged tires. When tire
service is needed, have a qualified tire mechanic service
the tire. Tire changing can be very hazardous and must
be done by a qualified tire mechanic using proper tools
and equipment. See the Specifications section for the
correct tire size.
Tire explosion and/or serious injury can result from over
inflation. Do not exceed tire inflation pressures. See the
Specifications section for the correct tire pressures.
Do not inflate a tire that is seriously under inflated or has
been run flat. Have the tire checked by a qualified tire
mechanic.
Do not weld on the rim when a tire is installed. Welding
will make an air/gas mixture that can cause an explosion
and burn with high temperatures. This danger applies to
all tires, inflated, or deflated. Removing air or breaking the
bead is not enough. The tire must be completely removed
from the rim prior to welding.
BALE THROWER (IF EQUIPPED)
Do not make adjustments on the bale thrower until the
baler flywheel has stopped rotating.
Never check the belts while the baler is running.
Always make sure the area is clear before swinging the
bale thrower to either side hydraulically.
Always have shields and guards in position before
operating the bale thrower.
Do not pull hay, or bales, from the bale thrower, or let any
person stand behind the bale thrower while the bale
thrower is in operation.
