SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safe Operation Is The Operator’s Responsibility
Safe Operation Needs A Qualified Operator
For an operator to be qualified, he or she must not use
drugs or alcoholic drinks which impair alertness or
coordination while working. An operator who is taking
prescription drugs must get medical advice to determine
if he or she can safely operate a machine and the
equipment.
A Qualified Operator Must Do The Following:
Understand the Written Instructions, Rules and
Regulations
• The written instructions from Farm King include the
Warranty Registration, Dealer Inspection Report,
Operator And Parts Manual and machine signs
(decals).
• Check the rules and regulations at your location. The
rules may include an employer’s work safety
requirements. Regulations may apply to local driving
requirements or use of a Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV)
emblem. Regulations may identify a hazard such as a
utility line.
Have Training with Actual Operation
• Operator training must consist of a demonstration and
verbal instruction. This training is given by the
machine owner prior to operation.
• The new operator must start in an area without
bystanders and use all the controls until he or she can
operate the machine safely under all conditions of the
work area. Always fasten seat belt before operating.
Know the Work Conditions
• Clear working area of all bystanders, especially small
children and all obstacles that might be hooked or
snagged, causing injury or damage.
• Know the location of any overhead or underground
power lines. Call local utilities and have all
underground power lines marked prior to operation.
• Wear tight fitting clothing. Always wear safety glasses
when doing maintenance or service.
This symbol with a warning statement means:
“Warning, be alert! Your safety is involved!”
Carefully read the message that follows.
Safety Alert Symbol
The signal word CAUTION on the machine and in the
manuals indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against
unsafe practices.
The signal word DANGER on the machine and in the
manuals indicates a hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
The signal word WARNING on the machine and in
the manuals indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in death
or serious injury.
This notice identifies procedures which must be
followed to avoid damage to the machine.
Operators must have instructions before operating
the machine. Untrained operators can cause injury
or death.

transmission may not prevent machine movement.
FIRE PREVENTION
Maintenance
The machine and some equipment have components
that are at high temperatures under normal operating
conditions. The primary source of high temperatures is
the engine and exhaust system. The electrical system, if
damaged or incorrectly maintained, can be a source of
arcs or sparks.
Flammable debris (leaves, straw, etc.) must be removed
regularly. If flammable debris is allowed to accumulate, it
can cause a fire hazard. Clean often to avoid this
accumulation.
All fuels, most lubricants and some coolant mixtures are
flammable. Flammable fluids that are leaking or spilled
onto hot surfaces or onto electrical components can
cause a fire.
Operation
The Farm King machine must be in good operating
condition before use.
Check all of the items listed on the service schedule
under the 8 hour column. (See “SERVICE SCHEDULE”
on page 38.)
Do not use the machine where exhaust, arcs, sparks or
hot components can contact flammable material,
explosive dust or gases.
Starting
Use the procedure in the tractor’s operator’s manual for
connecting the battery and for jump starting.

Safety - BW150
16
Electrical
Check all electrical wiring and connections for damage.
Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. Repair or
replace any damaged part or wires that are loose or
frayed.
Hydraulic System
Check hydraulic tubes, hoses and fittings for damage
and leakage. Never use open flame or bare skin to check
for leaks. Hydraulic tubes and hoses must be properly
routed and have adequate support and secure clamps.
Tighten or replace any parts that show leakage.
Always clean fluid spills. Do not use gasoline or diesel
fuel for cleaning parts. Use commercial nonflammable
solvents.
Welding And Grinding
Always clean the machine and equipment, disconnect
the battery, and disconnect the wiring from the machine
controls before welding. Cover rubber hoses, battery and
all other flammable parts. Keep a fire extinguisher near
the machine when welding.
Have good ventilation when grinding or welding painted
parts. Wear dust mask when grinding painted parts.
Toxic dust or gas can be produced.
Dust generated from repairing nonmetallic parts such as
hoods, fenders or covers can be flammable or explosive.
Repair such components in a well ventilated area away
from open flames or sparks.
Fire Extinguishers
Know where fire extinguishers and first aid kits are
located and how to use them. Inspect the fire
extinguisher and service the fire extinguisher regularly.
Obey the recommendations on the instructions plate.
