Disconnecting The Snow Blower From The Tractor - Schulte SDX-117 Operator's Manual

12. DISCONNECTING THE SNOW BLOWER FROM THE TRACTOR

Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the parking
brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement and
Tractor hitches.
Before disconnecting Snow Blower swing discharge chute to side of
Snow Blower, Lower and lock storage stand in place, Stay away from
front of Snow Blower until equipment is stable and secured from falling.
Sudden or inadvertant falling of equipment could result in serious injury
or death.
Never stand or allow another person to stand between a running Tractor and the Unit when
disconnecting the Implement from the Tractor 3-point hitch. Always shut the Tractor off com-
pletely and set the parking brake before attempting to disconnect the Implement pins from
the Tractor hitch.
Never crawl under a raised Implement supported solely by the Tractor 3-Point hitch.
Release of the control lever or mechanical failure will result in the Implement falling and
possible injury or death. Always securely block up the Implement before crawling underneath
to perform repairs and service.
Before disconnecting the implement, the PTO must be disengaged and auger rotation must be at a complete
stop. Move the implement to a level storage location and lower the implement to the ground. If the implement is
not resting securely on the ground, block the implement up securely before attempting to disconnect it from the
tractor. Engage the park brake.
Use extreme care to keep feet and hands out from under the implement and clear of any pinch points when
disconnecting the unit from the tractor.
Ensure that the Storage Stand "B" is lowered.
