PERMANENT HEARING LOSS!
Motors or equipment attached
can often be noisy enough to
cause permanent, partial hear-
ing loss. We recommend that you wear hearing
protection on a full-time basis if the noise in the
Operator's position exceeds 80db. Noise over
85db on a long-term basis can cause severe hear-
ing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to the Operator
over a long-term basis may cause permanent, to-
tal hearing loss. NOTE: Hearing loss from loud
noise (from tractors, chain saws, radios, and other
such sources close to the ear) is cumulative over
a lifetime without hope of natural recovery.
4. Clear working area of debris, trash or hidden ob-
stacles that might be hooked or snagged, causing
injury, damage or tripping.
5. Operate only in daylight or good articial light.
6. Be sure machine is properly anchored, adjusted
and in good operating condition.
