2. Safety

2.1 General

Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of the
main concerns in designing and developing a new
piece of equipment. Designers and manufacturers
build in as many safety features as possible. However,
every year many accidents occur which could have
been avoided by a few seconds of thought and a more
careful approach to handling the equipment.
Most work-related accidents are caused by failure to
observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident
can often be avoided by recognizing potentially
hazardous situations before an accident occurs. As
you assemble, operate, or maintain the disc harrow
(unit), you must be alert to potential hazards. You
should also have the necessary training, skills,
and tools to perform any assembly or maintenance
procedures.
Improper operation and maintenance of this unit could
result in a dangerous situation that could cause injury
or death.
