Storage - Woods RD990X Operator's Manual

ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
■ Make certain all movement of equipment com-
ponents has stopped before approaching for
service.
■ Never go underneath equipment (lowered to the
ground or raised) unless it is properly blocked
and secured. Never place any part of the body
underneath equipment or between moveable
parts even when the engine has been turned off.
Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic system
failures, mechanical failures, or movement of
control levers can cause equipment to drop or
rotate unexpectedly and cause severe injury or
death. Follow Operator's Manual instructions
for working underneath and blocking require-
ments or have work done by a qualified dealer.
■ Frequently check blades. They should be sharp,
free of nicks and cracks, and securely fastened.
■ Do not handle blades with bare hands. Careless
or improper handling may result in serious
injury.
■ Your dealer can supply genuine replacement
blades. Substitute blades may not meet orig-
inal equipment specifications and may be
dangerous.

SAFETY RULES
■ Tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws to torque
chart specifications. Check that all cotter pins
are installed securely to ensure equipment is in
a safe condition before putting unit into service.
■ Make sure all safety decals are installed.
Replace if damaged. (See Safety Decals section
for location.)
■ Make sure shields and guards are proper-
ly installed and in good condition. Replace if
damaged.
■ Wear gloves when installing belt. Be careful to
prevent fingers from being caught between belt
and pulley.
■ Use care when installing or removing belt from
spring-loaded idler. Springs store energy when
extended and, if released suddenly, can cause
personal injury.

from the equipment and the storage area.
