Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products
described in this manual.
Use A Safety Chain
A safety chain will help control
drawn machinery should it
separate from the tractor drawbar.
Use a chain with the strength
rating equal to or greater than the
gross weight of the towed
implement.
Attach the chain to the tractor
drawbar support or other specified
anchor location. Allow only
enough slack in the chain to
permit turning.
Always hitch the implement to the
machine towing it. Do not use the
safety chain to tow the implement.
Practice Safe Maintenance
Understand procedure before doing
work. Refer to the Operator’s
Manual for additional information.
Work on a level surface in a clean
dry area that is well-lit.
Lower implement to the ground and
follow all shutdown procedures
before leaving the operator’s seat to
perform maintenance.
Do not work under any hydraulic
supported equipment. It can settle,
suddenly leak down, or be lowered
accidentally. If it is necessary to
work under the equipment,
securely support it with stands or
suitable blocking beforehand.
Use properly grounded electrical
outlets and tools.
Use correct tools and equipment for
the job that are in good condition.
Allow equipment to cool before
working on it.
Disconnect battery ground cable (-)
before servicing or adjusting
electrical systems or before welding
on implement.
Inspect all parts. Make certain
parts are in good condition &
installed properly.
Replace parts on this implement
with genuine Land Pride parts only.
Do not alter this implement in a way
which will adversely affect its
performance.
Do not grease or oil implement
while it is in operation.
Remove buildup of grease, oil, or
debris.
Always make sure any material and
waste products from the repair and
maintenance of the implement are
properly collected and disposed.
Remove all tools and unused parts
from equipment before operation.
Do not weld or torch on galvanized
metal as it will release toxic fumes.
Tire Safety
Tire changing
can be
dangerous
and must be
performed by
trained personnel using the
correct tools and equipment.
Always properly match the wheel
size to the properly sized tire.
Always maintain correct tire
pressure. Do not inflate tires
above recommended pressures
shown in the Operator’s Manual.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose long
enough to allow you to stand to
one side and NOT in front of or
over the tire assembly. Use a
safety cage if available.
Securely support the implement
when changing a wheel.
When removing and installing
wheels, use wheel handling
equipment adequate for the
weight involved.
Make sure wheel bolts have been
tightened to the specified torque.
Transport Safely
Comply with federal, state, and
local laws.
Use towing vehicle and trailer of
adequate size and capacity. Secure
equipment towed on a trailer with
tie downs and chains.
Sudden braking can cause a towed
trailer to swerve and upset. Reduce
speed if towed trailer is not
equipped with brakes.
Avoid contact with any over head
utility lines or electrically charged
conductors.
Always drive with load on end of
loader arms low to the ground.
Always drive straight up and down
steep inclines with heavy end of a
tractor with loader attachment on
the “uphill” side.
Engage park brake when stopped
on an incline.
Maximum transport speed for an
attached equipment is 20 mph. DO
NOT EXCEED. Never travel at a
speed which does not allow
adequate control of steering and
stopping. Some rough terrains
require a slower speed.
As a guideline, use the following
maximum speed weight ratios for
attached equipment:
20 mph when weight of attached
equipment is less than or equal
to the weight of machine towing
the equipment.
10 mph when weight of attached
equipment exceeds weight of
machine towing equipment but
not more than double the weight.
IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load
that is more than double the weight
of the vehicle towing the load.

Important Safety Information
11/20/20 3
Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products
described in this manual.
Wear Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE)
Wear protective clothing and
equipment appropriate for the job
such as safety shoes, safety
glasses, hard hat, and ear plugs.
Clothing should fit snug without
fringes and pull strings to avoid
entanglement with moving parts.
Prolonged exposure to loud noise
can cause hearing impairment or
hearing loss. Wear suitable
hearing protection such as
earmuffs or earplugs.
Operating equipment safely
requires the operator’s full
attention. Avoid wearing
headphones while operating
equipment.
Use Seat Belt and ROPS
Land Pride recommends the use
of a CAB or roll-over-protective-
structures (ROPS) and seat belt
in almost all power machines.
Combination of a CAB or ROPS
and seat belt will reduce the risk
of serious injury or death if the
power machine should be upset.
If ROPS is in the locked-up
position, fasten seat belt snugly
and securely to help protect
against serious injury or death
from falling and machine overturn.
Keep Riders Off
Machinery
Never carry riders on the tractor or
implement.
Riders obstruct operator’s view
and interfere with the control of
the power machine.
Riders can be struck by objects or
thrown from the equipment.
Never use tractor or implement to
lift or transport riders.
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 the phone.
911
Use Safety
Lights and Devices
Slow moving tractors, and
self-propelled equipment can
create a hazard when driven on
public roads. They are difficult to
see, especially at night. Use the
Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) sign
when on public roads.
Flashing warning lights and turn
signals are recommended
whenever driving on public roads.
Avoid High Pressure
Fluids
Escaping fluid
under pressure can
penetrate the skin
causing serious injury.
Relieve all residual pressure
before disconnecting hydraulic
lines or performing work on the
hydraulic system.
Make sure all hydraulic fluid
connections are properly
tightened/torqued and all
hydraulic hoses and lines are in
good condition before applying
pressure to the system.
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.
DO NOT DELAY. If an accident
occurs, see a doctor familiar with
this type of injury immediately.
Any fluid injected into the skin or
eyes must be treated within a few
hours or gangrene may result.

Handle
Chemicals Properly
Protective clothing should be
worn.
Handle all chemicals with care.
Follow instructions on container
label.
Agricultural chemicals can be
dangerous. Improper use can
seriously injure persons, animals,
plants, soil, and property.
Inhaling smoke from any type of
chemical fire can be a serious
health hazard.
Store or dispose of unused
chemicals as specified by the
chemical manufacturer.
Dig Safe - Avoid
Underground Utilities
USA: Call 811
CAN: digsafecanada.ca
Always contact your local utility
companies (electrical, telephone,
gas, water, sewer, and others)
before digging so that they may
mark the location of any
underground services in the area.
Be sure to ask how close you can
work to the marks they positioned.
Listed below are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products
described in this manual.
Avoid crystalline Silica
(quartz) Dust
Because crystalline silica is a basic
component of sand and granite,
many activities at construction sites
produce dust containing crystalline
silica. Trenching, sawing, and boring
of material containing crystalline
silica can produce dust containing
crystalline silica particles. This dust
can cause serious injury to the
lungs (silicosis).
There are guidelines which should
be followed if crystalline silica
(quartz) is present in the dust.
Be aware of and follow OSHA
(or other local, State, or Federal)
guidelines for exposure to airborne
crystalline silica.
Know the work operations where
exposure to crystalline silica may
occur.
Participate in air monitoring or
training programs offered by the
employer.
Be aware of and use optional
equipment controls such as water
sprays, local exhaust ventilation,
and enclosed cabs with positive
pressure air conditioning if the
machine has such equipment.
Otherwise respirators shall be worn.
Where respirators are required, wear
a respirator approved for protection
against crystalline silica containing
dust. Do not alter respirator in any
way. Workers who use tight-fitting
respirators can not have beards/
mustaches which interfere with the
respirator seal to the face.
If possible, change into disposable
or washable work clothes at the
work site; shower and change into
clean clothing before leaving the
work site.
Do not eat, drink, use tobacco
products, or apply cosmetics in
areas where there is dust containing
crystalline silica.
Store food, drink, and personal
belongings away from the work
area.
Wash hands and face before eating,
drinking, smoking, or applying
cosmetics after leaving the exposure
area.

professional pendulum-type seeder/broadcast spreaders
that provide maximum spreading accuracy, ease of
operation and simple calibration. The PFS4000 is
designed for Category I 3-point hitch mounting, PFS5060
is designed for Category I & II 3-point hitch mounting and
PFS8010 is designed for Category II
3-point hitch mounting. They are capable of spreading
seed, sand, salt, top dressings, prilled/granular fertilizer,
lime, and most all other types of granular materials at
delivery rates ranging from 4 to 890 lbs/acre with effective
spread widths ranging from 20’ to 46’ (Depending on
material). Optional spouts are available for narrow
effective spread widths ranging from
6’ to 14’ and vineyard/orchards banding on rows only
3’ to 33’ overall width.
Each of these models offer specific hopper capacities
with the PFS4000 at 925 lbs, PFS5060 at 1,150 lbs or
1,393 lbs with optional extension and PFS8010 at 2,040
lbs or 2,522 lbs with optional extension or 2,998 lbs with
larger optional extension. (Capacity is based on average
weight of granular fertilizer.)
The precision spread pattern and range of hopper
capacities make the Land Pride’s Fertilizer Spreaders
well suited for applications on vineyards, orchards, farms,
golf courses, park systems, athletic fields, and large
campuses. They also work well for smaller municipal or
commercial applications of salt and sand for snow and
ice control.
See “Specifications & Capacities” on page 49 and
“Features & Benefits” on page 50 for additional
information and performance enhancing options.
