Operate the tractor and loader only in conditions where you have clear visibility in daylight
or with adequate artificial lighting. Never operate in darkness or foggy conditions where you
cannot clearly see at least 100 feet in front and to the sides of the tractor. Make sure you
can clearly see bystanders, ditches, steep slopes, drop-offs, overhead obstructions, power
lines, and debris or obstruction in the travel path. If you are unable to clearly see these
types of items discontinue operating. Contact with unseen vehicles, bystanders,
obstructions, or drop-offs can cause serious injury.
Be particularly careful in transport. The Implement has raised and moved the center of
gravity to the front of the Power Unit increasing the possibility of overturn and tipping
forward. Turn curves or go up slopes only at low speed and using a gradual turning angle.
Go up slopes with the Implement located uphill. Slow down on rough or uneven surfaces.
(SPU-2)
Never leave the Implement and Power Unit unattended while the Implement is in the raised
position. Accidental operation of a lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause the
implement to suddenly fall causing serious injury or possible death to anyone who might
inadvertently be under the Implement. Lower the implement carefully to the ground. Do not
put hands or feet under lifted components.
Your driving vision may be reduced or impaired by the tractor, cab, or implement. Before
driving on public roadways identify any limited vision areas, and make adjustments to your
operating position, mirrors, and the implement transport position so that you can clearly
see the area where you will be traveling, and any traffic that may approach you. Failure to
maintain adequate vision of the public roadway and traffic can result in serious injury or
even death.
Connecting or Disconnecting Implement Safety Instructions and
Practices
Never unhitch without using the Tongue Jack. The Tongue is very heavy. Attempting to lift
the Tongue without using the Tongue Jack could cause strains or other injury. Allowing the
tongue to fall suddenly and unexpectedly could result in crushing injury. Use the Tongue
Jack for lifting the Implement only. Overloading the Tongue Jack can cause failure with
possible serious bodily injury or even death.
Maintenance and Service Safety Instructions and Practices
READ, UNDERSTAND, and FOLLOW the following Safety Messages. Death or serious
injury may occur unless care is taken to follow the warnings and instructions stated in the
Safety Messages. Always use good common sense to avoid hazards.
