• Taking the machine across a road.
• Roading the machine.
• Moving the machine on a trailer.
See raising a bale chute for more information.
Make sure you understand the speed, brakes,
steering, stability, and load characteristics of this
machine and the tractor before you travel on public
roads.
Use good judgement when traveling on public
roads. Maintain complete control of the machine
at all times. Never coast down hills.
The maximum speed of farm equipment is
governed by local regulations. Adjust travel speed
to maintain control at all times. See Specifications
for the maximum speed for this machine.
Make sure the tractor is in the proper operating
condition according to the tractor operator manual.
Make sure the tractor brakes and the machine
brakes, if equipped, are adjusted correctly. The
tractor must have enough weight and braking
capacity, especially when operating on roads and
terrain that is not even. To achieve proper braking
capacity, use tractor of recommended size and
weight to tow the machine. See Specifications for
the minimum tractor weight.
Familiarize yourself with and obey all road
regulations that apply to your machine. Consult
your local law enforcement agency for local
regulations regarding movement of farm
equipment on public roads. Use headlights,

Fig. 16
Stay near the machine when the tractor is in operation.
Do not pull the crop, twine, or other object from the machine while the engine is in operation. Parts that
move can pull you into the machine before you can move out of the way.
Know the dimensions and the weights of parts when you do the servicing. Do not stand below or near a
part while it is moved with a hoist or other lift equipment.
After you do work on the machine, remove all tools from the machine.
Make sure that electrical connectors are clean before you connect them.
Do a check for loose, broken, missing, or damaged parts. Make sure that the machine is in good repair.
Make sure that all guards and shields are in position.

Do not operate the machine with the drive shaft
shields open or removed. Entanglement in drive
shafts that rotate can cause injury or death.
Stay clear of components that rotate.
Make sure that guards that rotate can rotate freely.
A loose yoke can come o a shaft and result in
injury to persons or damage to the machine.
When you install a quick disconnect yoke, the
spring activated locking pins must move freely and
be in the groove on the shaft. Pull on the driveline
to make sure that the quick disconnect yoke can
not be pulled o the shaft. GUID-CEB32148-1F4C-457C-ADF7-595DFC51AC25-high.jpg [High]

tensioners.
Injury can occur from threading the needles,
threading the knotters or adjusting the twine
tensioners with a baler in operation.
The needle frame and the knotters can move
when there is not hay in the baler.
When you do work with or around the needles or
knotters always engage the knotter/needle
lockout.

1.4.2 Fire prevention and first aid
Be prepared for emergencies.
Keep a first aid kit available for use on small cuts
and scratches.
Keep one or more fire extinguishers of the correct
type. Examine fire extinguishers regularly as stated
by the manufacturer. Make sure that the fire
extinguishers are charged and in operating
condition.
Crop material is flammable, there is a risk of fire.
Use a water type fire extinguisher or other water
source for a fire in crop.
For fires in material other than crop, such as oil or
electrical components, use a dry chemical fire
extinguisher with an ABC rating.
Keep fire extinguishers easy to access where fires
can occur.
Frequently remove crop material from the machine
and examine for components that are too hot. Do
checks on the machine each day for noises that
are not usual. Unusual noises can indicate a worn
out component that can cause too much heat.
If flame cutting, welding, arc welding, or grinding
is to be done on the machine or attachments, clear
crop material and unwanted material from around
the area. Make sure that the area below the work
area is clear of flammable material because falling
molten metal and sparks can cause ignition in the
material.
At the end of each season, or if the machine will
sit for more than 48 hours after baling high
moisture crops, do one of the following:
• If the machine has a bale ejector, use the bale
ejector to eject the bale.
• Fill the bale chamber with dry crop
