MacDon M105 Operator's Manual page 109

CAUTION
• With the engine running, moving the ground speed lever out of N-DETENT unlocks steering. Any
movement of steering wheel will then cause the machine to move, even if the ground speed lever has
not been moved forward or rearward from the NEUTRAL position.
• Hydrostatic steering is more sensitive than mechanical steering.
• Steering is opposite to normal when driving in reverse.
• The brakes are only on when the ground speed lever (GSL) is in N-DETENT and the steering wheel is
centered and locked.
DANGER
• NEVER move the ground speed lever or steering wheel until you are sure all bystanders have cleared
the area.
• Make sure area is clear before making turns, as the ends of a header travel in a large arc.
• Check the operation of all controls in a safe, clear area before starting work.
• Do know the capacity and operating characteristics of your machine.
• Do NOT allow riders in or on the machine.
• Do NOT operate unless seated in the operator's position.
• Do NOT attempt to get on or off a moving windrower.
• AVOID sudden starts and stops.
• AVOID inclines, ditches, and fences.
• Do NOT rapidly accelerate or decelerate when turning.
• REDUCE your speed before turning, crossing slopes, or travelling over rough ground.
• Do NOT allow anyone to stand behind the machine while operating.
