Unfortunately our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by a single
careless act of an operator.
In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident

of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of
equipment.
It is the operator’s responsibility to read and understand all safety and operating
instructions in the manual and to follow these.

equipment can lead to careless injuries. Read this manual, and the manual for your
tractor, before assembly or operating, to acquaint yourself with the machines. It is the
implement owner’s responsibility, if this machine is used by any person other than
