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 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’s manual and understand how to
operate the sprayer controls for safe operation
before using the sprayer, its attachment, or any
sprayer equipment. Likewise, never let anyone
operate the machine without proper instruction.
Do not operate the sprayer, its attachment, or
any sprayer equipment for anything other than
their intended uses. Hagie Manufacturing
Company shall not be liable for any damage,
injury, or death associated with improper use of
the sprayer, its attachment, or any sprayer
equipment.
Do not make any modifications such as, but
not limited to, weldments, add-ons, adaptations,
or changes from the original design of the
sprayer. 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
NOTE: If your machine is equipped with All
Wheel Steer (AWS), pay special
attention to components, operating
instructions, and safety precautions
marked with ^.
Do Not Bypass Safety Start
• Start the machine from the operator’s seat
only.
• The parking brake must be engaged before
starting the engine.
Use Caution While Driving ^
• Never drive near ditches, embankments,
holes, mounds, or other obstacles.
• Never drive on hills too steep for safe
operation.
• Reduce machine speed before turning.
• Do not permit passengers to ride on the
machine while it is moving. Failure to comply
may result in passenger falling off of machine
and/or obstructing the operator’s view.
NOTICE
This machine is designed for and
intended to be used for the application of
chemicals and fertilizers to field crops.
Use in any other way or for any other
purpose is considered misuse of this
machine.

SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
• Keep riders off machine. The only time a
passenger should be permitted to ride
inside the cab is for instructional or
diagnostic purposes only. The passenger
should be seated in the instructor seat
next to the operator and never allowed to
ride outside of the cab.
• Ensure there is adequate clearance
before driving under any overhead
obstructions. Contact with power lines
may result in serious injury or death.
• Booms must be folded and in cradles
when driving the machine on a roadway or
when near power lines.
Remove Paint Before Welding or
Heating
• Avoid toxic fumes and dust. Hazardous
fumes can be generated when paint is
heated by welding, soldering, or using a
torch.
• Do not use chlorinated solvents in areas
where welding will take place.
• Perform all work in an area that is well
ventilated to carry toxic fumes and dust
away.
• Dispose of paint and solvents properly.
Avoid Heating Near Pressurized
Lines
• Avoid torching, welding, and soldering
near pressurized hydraulic lines.
Pressurized lines may accidentally burst
when heat goes beyond the immediate
flame area.
Handle Fuel Safely
• Always turn the engine off and allow it to
cool before refueling.
• NEVER smoke while refueling.
• Do not fill tank completely, as fuel may
expand and run over.
• Always clean up spilled fuel with soapy
water.
• Keep a fire extinguisher nearby when
refueling.
Operate Safely ^
• Before moving the machine, ensure there
are no obstacles or persons in the path of
travel.
• Never operate a machine in the same field
as walking personnel.

SECTION 2 –
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
2-3
• Always drive at a reasonable field speed.
• Never operate the machine on a roadway
with solution in the tanks. Additional
weight caused from a full or partially full
solution tanks may cause erratic or
increased stopping distance.
• Do not operate the machine at speeds
exceeding 20 mph (32 km/h) with solution
in the tanks. Operating speeds exceeding
20 mph (32 km/h) with fully loaded tanks
may result in tire blow-out or wheel hub
damage and will void the warranty.
• Ensure the Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV)
emblem and the Speed Indicator Symbol
(SIS) are in place and visible from the rear
of machine when traveling on public
roadways.
• Pull over to the side of the road before
stopping.
• Always come to a complete stop before
reversing directions.
• Ensure the back-up alarm is audible when
operating the machine in reverse.
• Keep a fire extinguisher nearby at all
times.
• Keep ALL shields in place.
• Keep clear of all moving parts and keep
others away while operating (including
the reversible fan).
• Do not activate the parking brake while
the machine is in motion.
• Bring machine to a gradual stop to avoid
sudden downward decent.
• Reduce speed for icy, wet, graveled, or
soft roadway surfaces.
• Use flashers/hazard warning lights (day
or night) unless prohibited by law.
• Keep away from overhead power lines.
Serious injury or death may result to you
or others should the machine come into
contact with electrical power lines.
• Never use starting fluid to assist engine
start-up.
• If your machine is equipped with ground
speed sensing radar or light sensing
depth units, do NOT look directly into
radar beam, as it emits a very low intensity
microwave signal, which may result in
possible eye damage.
Be Prepared
• Be prepared for an emergency. Keep a
fire extinguisher, first aid kit, and clean
water in the cab at all times.
• Service the fire extinguisher regularly.
• Keep an accurate inventory of supplies in
the first aid kit and dispose of any item(s)
that have expired.
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.
Protect Against Noise
• Wear suitable hearing protection.
Prolonged exposure to loud noise may
result in loss of hearing.
