Shutting Down The Implement; Disconnecting The Snow Blower From The Tractor - Schulte SDX-102 Operator's Manual

11.1 Shutting Down the Implement

Tractor & Snow Blower
To shut down the implement, first bring the tractor to
a complete stop. Then slow down the snow blower
by reducing the engine speed before disengaging
the PTO. Wait for all rotating motion to stop before
proceeding to drive or shut down the tractor.
Park the tractor on a level surface, place the
transmission in park or neutral and apply the
parking brake, lower the attached implement to the
ground, shut down the engine, remove the key, and
wait for all motion to come to a complete stop
before exiting the tractor.

12. DISCONNECTING THE SNOW BLOWER FROM THE TRACTOR

Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the
parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement
and Tractor hitches.
Before disconnecting Snow Blower swing discharge chute to side of
Snow Blower, Lower and lock storage stand in place, Stay away from
front of Snow Blower until equipment is stable and secured from falling.
Sudden or inadvertant falling of equipment could result in serious injury
or death.
Never stand or allow another person to stand between a running Tractor and the Unit when
disconnecting the Implement from the Tractor 3-point hitch. Always shut the Tractor off
completely and set the parking brake before attempting to disconnect the Implement pins
from the Tractor hitch.
Never crawl under a raised Implement supported solely by the Tractor 3-Point hitch.
Release of the control lever or mechanical failure will result in the Implement falling and
possible injury or death. Always securely block up the Implement before crawling
underneath to perform repairs and service.
Before disconnecting the implement, the PTO must be disengaged and auger rotation must be at a complete
stop. Move the implement to a level storage location and lower the implement to the ground. If the implement
is not resting securely on the ground, block the implement up securely before attempting to disconnect it from
the tractor.
Use extreme care to keep feet and hands out from under the implement and clear of any pinch points when
disconnecting the unit from the tractor.
