THIS SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL FOUND THROUGHOUT THIS MANUAL IS USED TO CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO INSTRUCTIONS INVOLVING YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS.
GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES Safety of the operator 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 equipment.
Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper equipment and experience to do the job. Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel should be called to service and/or mount tires. ...
DURING OPERATION Children should not be allowed on the product. Clear the area of small children and bystanders before moving the feeder. Securely attach feeder to towing unit, using a hardened 3/4” pin, a metal retainer, and safety chains if required.
HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORT OPERATIONS Adopt safe driving practices: Keep the brake pedals latched together at all times. NEVER USE INDEPENDENT BRAKING WITH MACHINE IN TOW AS LOSS OF CONTROL AND/OR UPSET OF UNIT CAN RESULT. Always drive at a safe speed relative to local conditions and ensure that your speed is low enough for an emergency stop to be safe and secure.
Avoid loose fill, rocks and holes; they can be dangerous for equipment operation or movement. Allow for unit length when making turns. Operate the towing vehicle from the operator’s seat only. Never stand alongside of unit with engine running or attempt to start engine and/or operate machine while standing alongside of unit.
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble. Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate the engine of the towing vehicle in a closed building. The exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation. ...
