Operation - Bison NB Series Operator's Manual

Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacturing of our products.
Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment
can be eliminated by the negligent act of an
operator.
Besides the design, configuration of equipment,
hazard control and accident prevention depends on
knowledge, interest, trial, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance and storage of equipment.
It has been said "The best safety device is an
informed and careful operator." We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
NOTICE
Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate the equipment.
Do not allow viewers in the area when operating,
removing, mounting or repairing the equipment.
Before working under the rear blade, read the
manual, be sure to lock and check the stability of the
team. A secure lock prevents the machine from
falling due to a leak or hydraulic failure, or failure of
a mechanical component.
Never allow riders on the tractor or implement.
Keep everyone out of the control area operator
during the adjustment, servicing or maintenance.

OPERATION

NOTICE
Ensure that all personnel operating and service
know that if the hydraulic fluid is injected into the
skin must be surgically removed as soon as
possible by a doctor familiar with this type of lifting
injury or gangrene, this can cause serious injury or
death. Call your doctor immediately if the fluid
enters the skin or eyes. DO NOT DELAY.
To transport the equipment be sure to have at least
20% of the total weight of the tractor and equipment
in the front shaft of the tractor wheels. Without this
weight, the tractor may roll over causing personal
injury or death. The weight can be obtained with a
front loader, front wheel counterweights, ballast
tires, tractor or front counterweights. Weigh the
tractor and equipment, do not estimate it.
CAUTION
Keep hands and body away from the pipes and
hydraulic hoses. Use paper or cardboard, not hands
or other body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety
glasses.
The pressurized hydraulic fluid can easily penetrate
the skin and cause serious injury or death.
Always use relatively narrow and tucked clothing to
avoid entanglement in moving parts. Use anti-skid
safety shoes and protective equipment for eyes,
hair, hands, ears and head.
