Maintenance Safety
•
Before adjusting, cleaning, servicing, or leaving
the machine, do the following:
– Position the machine on a level surface.
– Move the throttle switch to the low-idle position.
– Disengage the PTO (if applicable).
– Ensure that the traction is in neutral.
– Engage the parking brake.
– Shut off the engine of the traction unit and
remove the key.
– Wait for all moving parts to stop.
– Allow machine components to cool before
performing maintenance.
•
Perform only those maintenance instructions
described in this manual. If major repairs are
ever needed or assistance is desired, contact an
authorized Bullseye distributor.
•
Ensure that the machine is in safe operating
condition by keeping nuts, bolts, and screws tight.
•
If possible, do not perform maintenance while the
engine is running. Keep away from moving parts.
•
Carefully release pressure from components with
stored energy.
•
Support the machine with blocks or storage stands
when working beneath it. Never rely on the
hydraulic system to support the machine.
•
Never crawl under the attachment. If necessary,
tilt the attachment.
•
Ensure that all guards are installed and secured
after maintaining or adjusting the machine.
•
To ensure safe, optimal performance of the
