Beforetransportingthe TractorandImplement,determine thesafe
transportspeedsforyou and theequipment. Makesureyouabideby
thefollowingrules:
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with
weakorfaultybrakes. When operatingdownahill or onwetorrain slick
roads,thebraking distanceincreases:useextremecare andreduceyour
speed. Whenoperatingin traffic alwaysusethe Tractor’sflashingwarn-

watch out for the other guy. (SG-19)
Test the equipment at a slow speed in turns. Increase the speed
through the turn only after you determine that it is safe to operate
at a higher speed. Use extreme care and reduce your speed when
turning sharply to prevent the tractor and implement from turning
over. Determine the maximum safe turning speed for you and this
equipmentbeforeoperatingonroadsoruneven ground.
Only transport the Tractor and Implement at the speeds that you
have determined are safe and which allow you to properly control the
equipment.
Test the tractor at a slow speed and increase the speed slowly.
Apply the Brakes smoothly to determine the stopping
characteristicsoftheTractor and Implement.
As you increase the speed of the Tractor the stopping distance
increases. Determine the maximum safe transport speed for
you and this Equipment.

WARNING! Never attempt to lubricate, adjust, or remove material from the
Implementwhileitisinmotionorwhiletractorengineisrunning. Make
sure the tractor engine is off before working on the Implement.
(SG-20)
CAUTION! PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE
PERMANENT HEARING LOSS! Tractors with or without an
Implement attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent
hearing loss. We recommend that you always wear hearing
protection if the noise in the Operator’s position exceeds 80db.
Noise over 85db over an extended period of time will cause severe
hearing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to the Operator over an
extended period of time will cause permanent or total hearing loss.
Note: Hearing loss from loud noise [from tractors, chain saws,
radios, and other such sources close to the ear] is cumulative over a
lifetime without hope of natural recovery. (SG-I7)
WARNING! Alwaysreadcarefullyandcomplyfullywiththemanufacturersinstructions
when handling oil, solvents, cleansers, and any other chemical agent.
