•
Read the Operator's Manual and other training material.
If the operator(s) or mechanic(s) can not read English it is
the owner's responsibility to explain this material to them.
•
Become familiar with the safe operation of the equipment,
operator controls, and safety signs.
•
All operators and mechanics should be trained. The
owner is responsible for training the users.
• Never let children or untrained people operate or service
the equipment. Local regulations may restrict the age of
the operator.
•
The owner/user can prevent and is responsible for
accidents or injuries occurring to himself or herself, other
people or property.
Preparation
•
Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories and
attachments are needed to properly and safely perform
the job. Only use accessories and attachments approved
by the manufacturer.
•
Wear appropriate clothing including hard hat, safety
glasses and hearing protection. Long hair, loose clothing
or jewelry may get tangled in moving parts.
•
Inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and
remove all objects such as rocks, toys and wire which can
be thrown by the machine.
•
Check that operator's presence controls, safety switches
and shields are attached and functioning properly. Do not
operate unless they are functioning properly.
