Transporting the
Attachment
To begin transport operation, raise the machine. To
avoid loss of control, traverse steep inclines slowly,
approach rough areas at reduced speed and cross
severe undulations carefully.
Important:
Do not exceed transport speeds of
12 km/h (7.5 mph).
During Operation
During Operation Safety
•
The owner/operator can prevent and is responsible
for accidents that may cause personal injury or
property damage.
•
Wear appropriate clothing, including eye
protection; long pants; substantial, slip-resistant
footwear; and hearing protection. Tie back long
hair and do not wear loose clothing or loose
jewelry.
•
Use your full attention while operating the
machine. Do not engage in any activity that
causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property
damage may occur.
•
Do not operate the machine when tired, ill, or
under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
•
Never carry passengers on the machine and keep
bystanders and pets away from the machine
during operation.
•
Operate the machine only in good visibility to avoid
holes or hidden hazards.
•
Keep your hands and feet away from moving parts.
•
Look behind and down before backing up to be
sure of a clear path.
•
Use care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may obscure your
vision.
•
Stop the attachment whenever you are not using it.
•
Stop the machine, shut off the engine, remove the
key, wait for all moving parts to stop, and inspect
the machine after striking an object or if there is
an abnormal vibration in the machine. Make all
necessary repairs before resuming operation.
•
Slow down and use caution when making turns
and crossing roads and sidewalks with the
machine. Always yield the right-of-way.
•
Reduce speed on rough roads and surfaces.
•
When the attachment is connected to a traction
unit and in the raised position, the weight of it
affects stability, braking, and steering. Exercise
caution when transporting between working areas.
•
Never leave a running machine unattended.
•
Before leaving the operating position, do the
following:
– Park the machine on a level surface.
– Engage the parking brake.
– Lower the attachment.
– Shut off the engine and remove the key.
– Wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving
the machine.
•
Do not operate the machine when there is the risk
of lightning.
•
Use Bullseye accessories, attachments, and
replacement parts only.
Slope Safety
•
Review the traction unit specifications to ensure
that you do not exceed its slope capabilities.
•
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control
and rollover accidents, which can result in severe
injury or death. You are responsible for safe slope
operation. Operating the machine on any slope
requires extra caution.
•
Review and understand the slope instructions in
the manual and on the traction unit.
•
Evaluate the site conditions to determine if the
slope is safe for machine operation, including
surveying the site. Always use common sense
and good judgment when performing this survey.
•
Review the slope instructions listed below for
operating the machine on slopes and to determine
whether you can operate the machine in the
conditions on that day and at that site. Changes
in the terrain can result in a change in slope
operation for the machine.
•
Avoid starting, stopping, or turning the machine on
slopes. Avoid making sudden changes in speed or
direction. Make turns slowly and gradually.
•
Do not operate a machine under any conditions
where traction, steering, or stability are in question.
•
Remove or mark obstructions such as ditches,
holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden hazards.
Tall grass can hide obstructions. Uneven terrain
could overturn the machine.
•
Be aware that operating the machine on wet
grass, across slopes, or downhill may cause the
machine to lose traction. Loss of traction to the
drive wheels may result in sliding and a loss of
braking and steering.
•
Use extreme caution when operating the machine
near drop-offs, ditches, embankments, water
hazards, or other hazards. The machine could
suddenly roll over if a wheel goes over the edge
