Avoid windrowing in the reverse direction when possible. In situations where the implement must be backed to
access areas to be windrowed make sure there are no persons, posts, animals, or foreign debris behind the
unit before windrowing in reverse.
Operate the Tractor and/or Implement controls only while properly seated in the Tractor seat
with the seat belt securely fastened around you.
Implement may cause serious injury or death.
Do not mow with two machines in the same area except with Cab tractors with the windows
closed.
Use extreme care when transporting the windrower on public highways and roads.
windrower and the tractor is longer in length. The implement is also wider than the tractor. Allow ample
clearance when transporting the tractor and implement to insure that they do not contact any bystanders,
signs, road structures, or other vehicles.
Never raise the implement entirely while the teeth are turning. If the implement must be raised higher than 12"
from ground level, disengage the tractor PTO and wait for all implement rotation to come to a complete stop
before proceeding to raise the implement. If implement is raised to high while the unit is running there is a
possibility of damaging the driveline.
Do not operate the Implement when bystanders or animals are near (within 50 feet) the
equipment. This Implement is capable of throwing objects for significant distances and
causing serious injury. Stop the Tractor and Implement immediately if a bystander or
animal comes near the equipment.
Stay alert and watch for trees, powerlines, posts, signs, and all other overhead and ground obstructions while
you are windrowing. Use extreme care to avoid hitting these types of obstructions.
12.1 Shutting Down the Implement
To shut down the implement, first bring the tractor
to a complete stop. Then slow down the windrower
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.
