Important Safety Information
Look for Safety Symbol
The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is a potential
hazard to personal safety involved and extra safety precaution
must be taken. When you see this symbol, be alert and
carefully read the message that follows it. In addition to design
and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident
prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern,
prudence and proper training of personnel involved in the
operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.
Be Aware of Signal Words
Signal words designate a degree or level of hazard seriousness.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This signal
word is limited to the most extreme situations, typically for
machine components that, for functional purposes, cannot be
guarded.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury, and
includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. It
may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION 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.
Use Adequate Lifting Means
The frame sections and gangs of this machine are
extremely heavy. If using multiple lifters, make sure each
is rated for at least its share of the load.
Prepare for Emergencies
Be prepared if a fire starts
Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy.
Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance, hospital
and fire department near phone.
Be Familiar with Safety Decals
Read and understand the “Safety Decals” section of the
Operators Manual.
Read all instructions noted on the decals.
Keep decals clean. Replace damaged, faded and illegible
decals.

8323-8560FCF Table of Contents Index Important Safety Information
Wear Protective Equipment
Wear protective clothing and equipment.
Wear clothing and equipment appropriate for the job.
Avoid loose-fitting clothing.
Because prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause
hearing impairment or hearing loss, wear suitable
hearing protection such as earmuffs or earplugs.
Because operating equipment safely requires your full
attention, avoid wearing entertainment headphones while
operating machinery.
Avoid High Pressure Fluids
Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin, causing
serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before
disconnecting hydraulic lines.
Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to
check for suspected leaks.
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when
working with hydraulic systems.
If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical assistance
from a physician familiar with this type of injury.
Use Safety Lights and Devices
Slow-moving tractors and towed implements can create a
hazard when driven on public roads. They are difficult to see,
especially at night.
Use flashing warning lights and turn signals whenever
driving on public roads.
Use lights and devices provided with implement
Keep Riders Off Machinery
Riders obstruct the operator’s view. Riders could be struck by
foreign objects or thrown from the machine.
Never allow children to operate equipment.
Keep all bystanders away from machine during operation.
Shutdown and Storage
Lower implement, put tractor in park, turn off engine, and
remove the key.
Secure Field Cultivator using blocks and supports
provided.
Detach and store Field Cultivator in an area where
children normally do not play.

Tire Safety
Tire changing can be dangerous and should be performed by
trained personnel using correct tools and equipment.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension
hose long enough for you to stand to one side–not in front
of or over tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available.
When removing and installing wheels, use wheel-handling
equipment adequate for weight involved.
Safety At All Times
Thoroughly read and understand the instructions in this
manual before operation. Read all instructions noted on the
safety decals.
Be familiar with all machine functions.
Operate machinery from the driver’s seat only.
Do not leave machine unattended with tractor engine
running.
Do not stand between the tractor and machine during
hitching.
Keep hands, feet and clothing away from power-driven
parts.
Wear snug-fitting clothing to avoid entanglement with
moving parts.
Watch out for wires, trees, etc., when folding and raising
machine. Make sure all persons are clear of working area.

Completing Setup
60. If the Field Cultivator is equipped with an optional
finishing attachment, refer to “Parts Manual” for parts
breakdown.
61. Once the options are installed, fold the Field Cultivator to
check for clearance and interferences. Slowly fold Field
Cultivator while watching that hoses and wiring harnesses
do not become pinched or kinked while watching for
interferences.
Double check that all bolts are tightened to specs,
See “Torque Values Chart” on page 12.Consult the
operating instructions, “Operator’s Manual”, for the
first time field adjustments before going to the field.

Hydraulic Connectors and Torque
Refer to Figure 9 (a hypothetical fitting)
Leave any protective caps in place until immediately prior to
making a connection.
NPT - National Pipe Thread
Note tapered threads, no cone/flare, and no O-ring.
Apply liquid pipe sealant for hydraulic applications.
Do not use tape sealant, which can clog a filter and/or plug an
orifice.
JIC - Joint Industry Conference (SAE J514)
Note straight threads and the 37cone on “M” fittings (or
37flare on “F” fittings).
Use no sealants (tape or liquid) on JIC fittings.
ORB - O-Ring Boss (SAE J514)
Note straight threads and elastomer O-Ring .
Prior to installation, to prevent abrasion during tightening,
lubricate O-Ring with clean hydraulic fluid.
Use no sealants (tape or liquid) on ORB fittings.
ORB fittings that need orientation, such as the ell depicted, also
have a washer and jam nut (“adjustable thread port stud”).
Back jam nut away from washer. Thread fitting into receptacle
until O-Ring contacts seat. Unscrew fitting to desired orientation.
Tighten jam nut to torque specification.
