Bale Skoop Operation Safety - Continued
During Operation
• SAFETY CHAIN: If the Bale Runner is going to be transported on a public highway, the safety chain should be
connected. Always follow state and local regulations regarding a safety chain and auxiliary lighting when towing
farm equipment on a public highway. Only a safety chain (not an elastic or nylon/plastic tow strap) should be
used to retain the connection between the towing and towed machines in the event of separation of the primary
attaching system.
• Install the safety chain by crossing the chains under the hitch and secure to the draw bar cage, hitch or bumper
frame.
• Beware of bystanders, particularly children! Always look around to make sure that it is safe to start the engine
of the towing vehicle or move the unit. This is particularly important with high noise levels and quiet cabs, as you
may not hear people shouting.
• NO PASSENGERS ALLOWED: Do not carry passengers anywhere on or in the tractor or equipment.
• The tops of the bed and loader are extremely slippery, do not climb, stand, or crawl on them.
• Keep bystanders at least twenty-ve feet away from an operating machine or stacked hay. This allows bystanders
time to get away from a falling stack or away from a moving machine. The operator is a very busy person and it
is easy to miss seeing an observer while operating the Bale Runner.
• Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts.
• Do not clean, lubricate or adjust your equipment while it is moving.
• When halting operation, even for a short period of time, set the tractor’s or towing vehicle’s brakes, disengage the
PTO, shut off the engine and remove ignition key.
• Be especially observant of the operating area and terrain - watch for holes, rocks or other hidden hazards. Always
inspect the area prior to operation.
• DO NOT operate near the edge of drop-offs or banks.
• DO NOT operate on steep slopes as overturn may result.
• Operate up and down (not across) intermediate slopes. Avoid sudden starts and stops.
• Pick the attest possible route when transporting across elds. Avoid the edges of ditches or gullies and steep
hillsides.
• Always return the hitch to the in-line position whenever moving from the stack to the bales or the bales to the
stack.
• Be extra careful when working on inclines.
• Periodically clear the equipment of brush, twigs or other materials to prevent buildup of dry combustible materials.
• Maneuver the tractor or towing vehicle at safe speeds.
• Avoid overhead wires or other obstacles. Contact with overhead lines could cause serious injury or death.
• Avoid loose ll, rocks and holes; they can be dangerous for equipment operation or movement.
• Allow for unit length when making turns.
• Do not walk or work under raised components or attachments unless securely positioned and blocked.
• Keep all bystanders, pets and livestock clear of the work area.

Maintenance Safety
Performing Maintenance
• Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation for trouble.
• Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate the engine of the towing vehicle in a closed building. The
exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation.
• Before working on this machine, stop the towing vehicle, set the brakes, disengage the PTO and all power drives,
shut off the engine and remove the ignition keys.
• Be sure the bed is supported by a block positioned between the bed rest and the loader.
• Be certain all moving parts on attachments have come to a complete stop before attempting to perform maintenance.
• Always use a safety support and block the wheels. Never use a jack to support the machine.
• Always use the proper tools or equipment for the job at hand. Use extreme caution when making adjustments.
• A torque chart is provided in Section 6 of this manual for reference when tightening bolts and nuts.
• Never use your hands to locate a hydraulic leak on attachments. Use a piece of cardboard or wood. Hydraulic
uid escaping under pressure can penetrate the skin.
• When disconnecting hydraulic lines, shut off hydraulic supply and relieve all hydraulic pressure (see Maintenance
Section 6 for instructions).
• Openings in the skin and minor cuts are susceptible to infection from hydraulic uid. If injured by escaping hydraulic
uid, see a doctor at once. Without immediate medical treatment, serious infection, gangrene and allergic reactions
can occur.
• Replace all shields and guards after servicing and before moving.
• After servicing, be sure all tools, parts and service equipment are removed.
• Do not allow grease or oil to build up on any step or platform.
• Never replace hex bolts with less than grade eight bolts unless otherwise specied. Refer to bolt torque chart for
head identication marking.
• Where replacement parts are necessary for periodic maintenance and servicing, genuine factory replacement parts
must be used to restore your equipment to original specications. The manufacturer will not claim responsibility
for use of unapproved parts and/or accessories and other damages as a result of their use.
• If equipment has been altered in any way from original design, the manufacturer does not accept any liability for
injury or warranty.
• A re extinguisher and rst aid kit should be kept readily accessible while performing maintenance on this equipment.
Air System Components
• Stop engine when working under a vehicle. Always block the vehicle wheels against a fore or aft roll. Bleeding off
system air pressure may cause the vehicle to roll. Keep hands away from brake chamber, push rods, and slack
adjusters; they may apply as system pressure drops.
• Never connect or disconnect a hose or line containing air pressure. It may whip as air escapes. Never remove a
component or a pipe plug unless you are certain all system air pressure has been exhausted.
• Never exceed recommended working air pressure and always wear safety glasses when working with air pressure.
Never look directly into component ports or direct a pressurized air ow at anyone.
• Never attempt to disassemble a component until you have read and understood all recommended procedures.
Some components contain powerful springs and injury can result if not properly disassembled. Use only proper
tools and observe all precautions pertaining to the use of those tools.
