SPECIFICATIONS
Hagie Manufacturing Company offers it’s Nitrogen Toolbar (NTB) in 12-row, 16-row, 18-skip
row, and 24-skip row configurations, depending on model. The 6-ft. (182 cm) clearance (30/40’
NTB) allows growers to side-dress nitrogen later in the growing season, in some situations, after
tassels have topped.
NTB units are set for 30” (76 cm) rows, but some can accommodate 20, 22, or 36-inch (50, 55,
or 91 cm) rows. They are capable of applying 80 to 100 lbs. (36 to 45 kg) of nitrogen at 14 to 16
mph (22 to 25 km/h), which is approximately twice the speed of tractor-pulled units.

SECTION 2 – SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
INTENDED USE
Most accidents occur as the result of failure to
follow basic and fundamental safety rules and
precautions. Recognizing potential safety
hazards, following correct and safe operating
procedures described in this manual, and
complying with safety warnings located
throughout the machine and attachment may
reduce the risk of accidents.
There is no way to completely eliminate the
potential for danger when operating agricultural
equipment. Therefore, you must study this
operator’smanual andunderstand how tooperate
the attachment controls for safe operation before
using the attachment. Likewise, never let anyone
operate the attachment without proper
instruction.
Do not operate the attachment for anything
other than its intended use. Hagie Manufacturing
Company shall not be liable for any damage,
injury, or death associated with improper use of
the attachment.
Do not make any modifications such as, but
not limited to, weldments, add-ons, adaptations,
or changes from the original design of the
attachment. Such modifications may become
safety hazards to you and others and will void all
warranties.
Replace missing, faded, or damaged safety
signs. Refer to “Safety Decals” elsewhere in this
section for correct sign and placement.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
General Safety
• The hydraulic and electrical control systems
are optimized for use with this attachment.
Any modification to these systems may lead
to unintended or uncontrolled motion. Do
NOT install add-on control systems that are
not approved by Hagie Manufacturing Com-
pany.
• Some conditions cannot be completely safe-
guarded against without interfering with effi-
cient operation of the machine and/or
reasonable accessibility. In these cases,
decals have been installed to provide the
operator with hazard information.
Do NOT remove decals for any reason. If a
decal is damaged or missing, contact the
Hagie Customer Support Department for
replacement.
Wear Protective Clothing
• Do not wear loose fitting clothing that could
get caught in moving parts. Wear safety
equipment that is appropriate for the job.
• Do not store chemical-soaked clothing in the
cab. Clean off as much mud and dirt from
your shoes as you can before entering the
cab.
NOTICE
This attachment is designed for and
intendedtobeusedfortheapplicationof
nitrogen to field crops. Use in any other
way or for any other purpose is
considered misuse of this attachment.

SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
Be Prepared
• Be prepared for an emergency. Keep a
fire extinguisher handy. Keep a first aid
kit and clean water in the cab.
• Make sure to service the fire extinguisher
regularly. Keep an accurate inventory of
supplies in the first aid kit and dispose of
anything that has expired.
General Maintenance Safety
• Turn off sprayer engine before checking,
adjusting, repairing, lubricating, or
cleaning any part of the attachment.
• Remove all chemical residue from the
work area before performing service/
maintenance.
• Disconnect the battery ground cable and
turn the Battery Disconnect Switch OFF
before servicing the electrical system or
welding on an attachment.
Safe Hydraulic Maintenance
• Always practice personal safety when
performing service or maintenance on
the hydraulic system.
• Use caution when working around
hydraulic fluid under pressure. Escaping
fluid can have sufficient force to pene-
trate your skin, causing serious injury.
This fluid may also be hot enough to
burn.
• Always lower the load or relieve pres-
sure before repairing a hydraulic leak.
• Avoid torching, welding, and soldering
near pressurized hydraulic lines. Pressur-
ized lines may accidentally burst when
heat goes beyond the immediate flame
area.
Oil-Over-Air Scenarios
• Upon initial startup of the NTB, be ready
for possible rapid movement, should
some air become trapped in the cylin-
ders.
DO NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO
STAND IN LOCATIONS WHERE THE
NTB COULD STRIKE THEM!
• Clear area of personnel, then operate all
attachment functions (i.e. main lift, main
fold, up/down movement of outer sec-
tions, outer folds, and left and right-hand
wings) two (2) times simultaneously to
force out any air in the system.
Handle Agricultural Chemicals
Safely
Agricultural chemicals used in
applications can be harmful to your health
and the environment if not used properly.

SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
2-3
• Always follow the manufacturer’s label
for directions of use.
• Never allow chemicals to come in con-
tact with your skin or eyes. Always use
the proper Personal Protective Equip-
ment (PPE).
• Never pour chemicals into an empty
tank. Always fill tank half full of water
first.
• Dispose of empty chemical containers
properly.
• Wash spilled chemicals or residue away
to prevent corrosion and deterioration.
• Select safe areas to fill, flush, calibrate,
and clean sprayer where chemicals will
not run off to contaminate people, ani-
mals, vegetation, or water supply.
• Never place a spray nozzle to your
mouth in an attempt to unplug it.
• Do not spray when wind is in excess of
chemical manufacturer’s recommenda-
tion.
• Store chemicals in their original contain-
ers with the label intact.
• Store chemicals in a separate, locked
building.
• Wear protective equipment as recom-
mended by the chemical manufacturer.
SAFETY DECALS
Decals warning you of avoidable danger
arelocatedonvariouspartsoftheattachment.
They are there for your personal safety and
protection. DO NOT remove them. They will
fracture upon attempted removal and
therefore, must be replaced.
Following are locations of important
