pull you into the machine before you can move out of the way.
After you do work on the machine, remove all tools from the machine.
Make sure that electrical connectors are clean before you connect them.
Do a check for loose, broken, missing, or damaged parts. Make sure that the machine is in good repair.
Make sure that all guards and shields are in position.

Do not operate the machine with the drive shaft
shields open or removed. Entanglement in drive
shafts that rotate can cause injury or death.
Stay clear of components that rotate.
Make sure that guards that rotate can rotate freely.
A loose yoke can come o a shaft and result in
injury to persons or damage to the machine.
When you install a quick disconnect yoke, the
spring activated locking pins must move freely and
be in the groove on the shaft. Pull on the driveline
to make sure that the quick disconnect yoke can
not be pulled o the shaft. GUID-CEB32148-1F4C-457C-ADF7-595DFC51AC25-high.jpg [High]

Remove spilled oil, antifreeze or fuel immediately
from the steps, platform, and other access areas.
Keep all access areas clean of unwanted materials.

When you do work on the machine, make sure
that the header is lowered.
When it is necessary for the header to be in the up
position, lift the header to the full up position, stop
the engine, and take the key with you.
The header down valve on the windrower lift
cylinder keeps the header from lowering.

1.2.8.2 Fire prevention and first aid
Be prepared for emergencies.
Keep a first aid kit available for use on small cuts
and scratches.
Keep one or more fire extinguishers of the correct
type. Examine fire extinguishers regularly as stated
by the manufacturer. Make sure that the fire
extinguishers are charged and in operating
condition.
Crop material is flammable, there is a risk of fire.
Use a water type fire extinguisher or other water
source for a fire in crop.
For fires in material other than crop, such as oil or
electrical components, use a dry chemical fire
extinguisher with an ABC rating.
Keep fire extinguishers easy to access where fires
can occur.
Frequently remove crop material from the machine
and examine for components that are too hot. Do
checks on the machine each day for noises that
are not usual. Unusual noises can indicate a worn
out component that can cause too much heat.
If flame cutting, welding, arc welding, or grinding
is to be done on the machine or attachments, clear
crop material and unwanted material from around
the area. Make sure that the area below the work
area is clear of flammable material because falling
molten metal and sparks can cause ignition in the
material.

1.2.8.3 High pressure leaks
WARNING: Hydraulic fluid under
pressure can penetrate the skin or
eyes.
Serious personal injury, blindness, or
death can occur.
Relieve the pressure from the system
or component before disconnecting
components. Wear personal
protective gear while working on the
machine or equipment. Use a piece of
cardboard to check for leaks. Never
use your hand.
Fluid that leaks from the hydraulic system or the
fuel injection system is high pressure and is not
easily seen. The fluid can go into the skin causing
injury.
Fluid that is injected into the skin must be
surgically removed immediately. If not removed
immediately, infection and reaction can occur. Go
immediately to a physician who knows about this
type of injury.

Use a piece of cardboard or wood to look for
possible leaks. Do not use your bare hand. Wear
leather gloves for hand protection and safety
goggles for eye protection.
Remove all pressure before you loosen hydraulic
lines. Lower equipment in the up position, close
the accumulator valve, and stop the engine.
Tighten all connections before you apply pressure.

1.2.8.4 Accumulator safety
DANGER:
An authorized dealer must charge or
replace the accumulator.
The accumulator (1) is charged with dry nitrogen
gas. Use only dry nitrogen when the accumulator
is charged. Do not use air or oxygen or an
explosion will occur.
Nitrogen gas, when released can cause freezing.
Always wear protective gloves and glasses when
around nitrogen.
Do not let the accumulator fall. A charged
accumulator contains pressurized nitrogen. If the
shut o valve breaks away from the accumulator,

the nitrogen will make the accumulator move at a high rate of speed.
1.2.8.5 Tire safety
Examine tires for cuts, bulges, and correct
pressure. Replace worn or damaged tires. When
tire service is needed, have a qualified tire
mechanic service the tire. Tire changing can be
very hazardous and must be done by qualified tire
mechanic using proper tools and equipment.
Tire explosion and/or serious injury can result from
over inflation. Do not exceed the tire inflation
pressures.
Do not inflate a tire that is seriously under inflated
or has been run flat. Have the tire examined by
qualified tire mechanic.
Do not weld on the rim when a tire is installed.
Welding will make an air/gas mixture that can
cause an explosion and burn with high
temperatures. This hazard applies to all tires,
inflated or deflated. Removing air or breaking the
bead is not enough. The tire must be completely
removed from the rim prior to welding.
When preparing a calcium chloride solution for
fluid ballast the tractor tires, never pour water onto
the calcium chloride. A chlorine gas can be
generated which is poisonous and explosive. This
can be avoided by slowly adding calcium chloride
flakes to water and stirring until they are dissolved.
When seating tire beads onto rims, never exceed
2.4 bar (35 psi) or the maximum inflation pressure
specified on the tire. Inflation beyond this
maximum pressure may break the bead, or even
the rim, with explosive force.

1.2.8.6 Replacement parts
Where replacement parts are necessary for
machine maintenance and servicing, you must use
original equipment replacement parts.
The manufacturer will not accept responsibility for
installation of unapproved parts and/or accessories
and damages as a result of their usage.

1.2.8.7 Weld on the machine precautions
Before you weld on the machine:
• Disconnect battery terminals and put them out of the way.

• Disconnect all controllers and monitors.
• Connect the welding ground as close as possible weld area.
If you do not disconnect the electrical components, the component can be damaged.
When you connect the electrical connections, connect the battery cables last.
