  • Page 9: Safety

    2 Safety Your ANDERSON bale wrapper was designed to reduce to a minimum the risks to the operator. However, it must be used only for the work it was designed for. Additionally, since it includes a powerful hydraulic system, moving metal parts, and a gasoline engine (optional) and all these elements can cause serious injury to humans or animals, it is strongly recommended to read and to closely adhere to the following guidelines.

  • Page 10: Fuel

    Fuel Gasoline is a very flammable substance which must be handled with care in an approved container when you fill the engine tank of your hydraulic unit. Put back in place and firmly tighten the tank cap and wipe away any spilled fuel. Never add gasoline when the engine is hot or operating.
