Investigation has shown that nearly one-third of all farm accidents are caused by careless use of
machinery. You can do your part in improving safety by observing the following suggestions. Insist
that all people working with you or for you abide by them.
1. Do not stand between tractor and implement when attaching or detaching implement, unless neither
are moving.
2. Do not allow anyone to ride on tractor or machine.
3. Lower machine to ground when not in use.
4. Use support stand so that machine will not roll when unhitched from tractor.
5. Do not transport at speeds over 20 MPH.
6. When transporting machine, avoid sudden stops or sharp turns because the weight of the machine
may cause the operator to lose control of the tractor.
7. When transporting the machine on a road or highway, use adequate warning symbols, reflectors,
lights and slow moving vehicle signs as required.
8. Securely block machine when working on or under it to prevent injury in case of hydraulic failure or
inadvertent lowering by another person.
The "WARNING" signs illustrated on this page are placed on the machine to warn of hazards.
"The warnings found on the sign are for your personal safety and those around you."
on the machine are shown on the following page. OBSERVE THESE WARNINGS!
Keep these signs clean so they can be observed readily. Wash with soap and water or cleaning
solution as required.
Replace "WARNING" signs should they become damaged, painted over or if they are missing.
When replacing decals, clean the machine surface thoroughly using soap and water or cleaning
solution to remove all dirt and grease.
