The rotating parts of this machine have been designed and tested for rugged use. However,
the teeth could fail upon impact with heavy, solid objects such as metal guard rails and con-
crete structures. Such impact could cause the broken objects to be thrown outward at very
high velocities. To reduce the possibility of property damage, serious injury, or even death,
never allow the teeth to contact such obstacles.
Never leave the Power Unit and Implement unattended while the Implement is in the lifted
position. Accidental operation of the lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause a sudden
drop of the unit with possible injury or death by crushing. Fully lower the Implement to ground
level to disconnect the Implement or to perform service. Do not put hands or feet under lifted
components.
Many varied objects, such as wire, cable, rope, or chains, can become entangled in the
rotating parts of the Implement. These objects could then swing outside the housing at great
velocity. Such a situation is extremely hazardous and could result in serious injury or even
death. Inspect the area for such objects before working in the area. Remove any such objects
from the site. Never allow the implement to contact such objects.
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.
Do Not attempt to raise or lower the rock bin unless the Implement tongue is securely
attached to the Tractor drawbar. The Implement could tip over and cause equipment damage
and possible serious injury or death. Raise or Lower the bin only while seated in the Tractor
operator's seat with the seat belt securely fastened.
Raise the unit to the transport position and secure with the retaining pins before traveling on
public roads and when storing.
Never leave the Rock Picker unattended while the hopper bin is in the raised position.
Accidental operation of the lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause a sudden drop of the
unit which could result in injury or death by crushing. If the hopper must be raised for a
purpose other than the time required to normally dump, or if someone is going to get under
the hopper for any reason, always secure the hopper safety prop into position.
Make sure no bystanders or animals are within 25 feet of the Implement when dumping
contents from the hopper. Hopper contents, which may exceed several thousand pounds,
could fall and crush a bystander or an animal resulting in possible injury or death.
Never allow riders in the implement hopper bin. Hopper contents, which may exceed several
thousand pounds, could fall and crush a rider resulting in possible injury or death.
Hopper contents, which may exceed hundred pounds, could fall and crush a person resulting
in possible injury or death. Use extrem care when handling or working on or in load hopper
bin.
