Operator Safety Instructions and Practices

Never operate the Tractor or Implement until you have read and completely
understand this Manual, the Tractor Operator's Manual, and each of the Safety
Messages found in the Manual or on the Tractor and Implement. Learn how to
stop the tractor engine suddenly in an emergency. Never allow inexperienced
or untrained personnel too operate the Tractor and Implement without
supervision. Make sure the operator has fully read and understood the manuals
prior to operation.
The operator and all support personnel should wear hard hats, safety shoes,
safety glasses, and proper hearing protection at all times for protection from
injury including injury from items thrown by the equipment.
PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE PERMANENT
HEARING LOSS! Tractors with or without an Implement attached can often be
noisy enough to cause permanent hearing loss.
always wear hearing protection if the noise in the Operator's position exceeds
80db. Noise over 85db over an extended period of time will cause severe
hearing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to the Operator over an extended
period of time will cause permanent or total hearing loss. NOTE: Hearing loss
from loud noise [from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other such sources close
to the ear] is cumulative over a lifetime without hope of natural recovery.
Always read carefully and comply fully with the manufacturers instructions when
handling oil, solvents, cleansers, and any other chemical agent.
