Before Operation Safety
General Safety
•
Never allow children or untrained people to
operate or service the machine. Local regulations
may restrict the age of the operator. The owner
is responsible for training all operators and
mechanics.
•
Become familiar with the safe operation of the
equipment, operator controls, and safety signs.
•
Always shut off the traction unit engine, remove
the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop
before adjusting, repairing, cleaning, or storing the
machine. Know how to stop the traction unit and
shut off the engine quickly.
•
Keep all guards, safety devices, and decals in
place. Repair or replace all safety devices. Do not
operate the machine unless they are present and
functioning properly.
•
Ensure that the traction unit is suitable for use with
an implement of this weight by checking with the
traction unit supplier or manufacturer.
•
Do not modify this equipment in any manner.
Adjusting the Hitch Height
1.
Ensure that the frame is located on a level
surface and the frame support is adjusted to
level the frame.
2.
Gauge the difference in height between the
frame hitch and the traction unit hitch.
3.
If the frame hitch height must be changed,
remove the bolts and locknuts securing the
hitch to the frame. Move the hitch to one of
the other settings or, if these settings do not
exactly match, a more optimal adjustment may
be achieved by rotating the hitch 180°.

with the hitch pin and hairpin.
