Only operate the snow blower in conditions were you have clear visibility in daylight or with
adequate artificial lighting. Never snow blow in darkness or in conditions where you cannot
clearly see at least 100 yards in front and to the sides of the Tractor and Snow Blower.
Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs,
overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly
see these types of items, discontinue snow blowing.
DO NOT operate this Implement on a Tractor that is not properly maintained. Should a
mechanical or Tractor control failure occur while operating, immediately shut down the
Tractor and perform repairs before resuming operation. Serious injury and possible death
could occur from not maintaining this Implement and Tractor in good operating condition.
(SG-36)
If removing snow from other than paved or hard surfaced areas, move deflector to the low
position to minimize the distance that gravel or foreign material is ejected.
Never direct discharge of snow towards people, pets, or property.
When operating on a snow blower with a 3-point
hitch be sure to carefully read the Operator's
manual of your tractor, and familiarize yourself with
the 3-point hitch and power take-off controls.
Always adjust the tractor's rate of lower control so
that the snow blower can be lowered at a safe
speed.
Excessive speed of drop may cause damage or injury. Fully lowering implement should
require at least two seconds.
Do not use the tractor's upper link to adjust the height of the snow blower blade. The snow
blower should sit square to the ground, otherwise, universal joint angles will be out of
parallel.
Do not operate the snow blower PTO drive in the fully raised position.
Stop engine, disengage power take-off, and remove ignition key whenever leaving tractor
operating position.
