    • Failure to follow proper procedures when mounting a tire on a rim can produce an explosion which may result in a serious injury or death. • Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have proper equipment and experience to do job. • Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel should be called to service and/or mount tires. • Always order and install tires and wheels with appropriate type and load capacity to meet or exceed anticipated weight to be placed on the equipment. • Refer to “TIRE INFLATION CHART” in your owners manual for maximum tire pressure for a Demco Grain Cart. befoRe oPeRATIoN: • Carefully study and understand this manual and the Owner’s Manual. • Do not wear loose-fitting clothing which may catch in moving parts. • Always wear protective clothing and substantial shoes. • It is recommended that suitable protective hearing and eye protection be worn. • Operator may come in contact with certain materials which may require specific safety equipment relative to handling of such materials. (Examples: extremely dusty, molds, fungus, bulk fertilizers, etc.) • Keep wheel and lug nuts tightened to specified torque.
  • Page 6: Following Operation

    • When halting operation, even periodically, set tractor or towing vehicles brakes, disengage PTO, shut off engine, and remove ignition key. • Be especially observant of operating area and terrain. Watch for holes, rocks, or other hidden hazards. Always inspect area prior to operation. DO NOT operate near edge of drop-off or banks. DO NOT operate on steep slopes as overturn may result. Operate up and down (not across) intermediate slopes. Avoid sudden starts and stops. • Pick the most level possible route when transporting across fields. Avoid edges of ditches, gullies, and steep hillsides.

Do not coast. - Do not drink and drive! • Comply with state and local laws governing highway safety and movement of farm machinery on public roads. • Use approved accessory lighting, flags and necessary warning devices to protect operators of other vehicles on highway during transport. various safety lights and devices are available from your dealer. • Use of flashing amber lights is acceptable in most localities.
