SAFETY FIRST! Equipment Safety Guidelines Safety of the operator is one of the main concerns in designing and developing a new piece of equipment. Designers and manufacturers build in as many safety features as possible. However, every year many accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds of thought and a more careful approach to handling equipment.
Page 7: Tire Safety
 Be sure that the installation area is clean and dry.  Decide on the exact position before you remove the backing paper. Tire Safety  Failure to follow proper procedures when mounting a tire on a wheel or rim can produce an explosion which may result in serious injury or death.
Page 8: During Operation
 Securely attach to towing unit. Use a high strength, appropriately sized hitch pin with a mechanical retainer and attach safety chain.  Do not allow anyone to stand between the tongue or hitch and the towing vehicle when backing up to the equipment. During Operation: ...
Page 9: Following Operation
Following Operation:  When disconnecting, stop the tractor or towing vehicle, set the brakes, secure the wings in the wing rests, relieve hydraulic fluid pressure, shut off the engine and remove the ignition keys. Make sure all jack and support stands are in place before removing hitch pins. ...
Page 10: Performing Maintenance
 Be observant of bridge loading ratings. Do not cross bridges rated lower than the gross weight at which you are operating.  Watch for obstructions overhead and to the side while transporting.  Always operate equipment in a position to provide maximum visibility at all times. Make allowances for increased length and weight of the equipment when making turns, stopping, etc.
Page 11: Maintenance And Service Schedule
OPERATING SUGGESTIONS There are some important points to remember in order to obtain the best possible results from your McFarlane harrow.  To maximize the harrow’s performance, it should be towed at speeds ranging from six to nine (6 - 9) mph. This keeps the field debris moving through the harrow sections and avoids clogging.
Page 12: Assembly Suggestions
ASSEMBLY SUGGESTIONS  You will find the machine is easier to assemble if the set-up instructions are followed in the order given in the manual.  Before beginning, sort the various bolt bags, hardware bags and hydraulic bags according to what part of the unit that is being setup.
