SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
A careful operator operates best. Most accidents can be
avoided by observing certain precautions. Read all
precautions that follow before operating your tractor and
loader to help prevent accidents. Equipment should be
operated only by those who are responsible and instructed to
do so.
GENERAL
1. Read your Operator's Manuals carefully before using tractor
or loader. Lack of operatingknowledge can lead to accidents.
2. Replace damaged or illegible safety decals. See pages 1-10
& 1-11 for required decals.
3. Operate tractor and loader only from operator's seat.
TRACTOR
1. Use an approved roll bar and seat belt for safe operation.
Overturning a tractor without a rollbar can result in death or
injury. If your tractor is not equipped with a rollbar and seat
belt, see your Tractor Dealer.
2. Equip your tractor with FOPS (Falling Object Protective
Structure) before installing or operating loader.
3. Always use seat belt when rollbar is installed. Do not use seat
belt if rollbar is removed from tractor.
4. Add recommended wheel ballast and/or rear weight as
recommended in owner's manual to provide good stability.
5. Move rear wheels to widest settings recommended to
increase stability.
6. Move and turn tractor at low speeds.
LOADER
1. Improper use of a loader can cause serious injury or death.
2. Do not lift or carry anybody on loader, in bucket or on
attachment.
3. Never allow anyone to get under loader bucket or reach
through lift arms when bucket is raised.
4. Do not walk or work under a raised loader or bucket or
attachment unless it is securely blocked or held in position.
5. Avoid overhead wires and obstacles when loader is raised.
Contacting electric lines can cause electrocution.
6. Make sure all parked loaders are on a hard, level surface.
Engage all safety devices.
OPERATING LOADER
1. As owner of this loader, it is your responsibility to be certain
anyone operating this loader has read this manual first to be
aware of safe operation of your tractor and loader.
2. Exercise caution when operating any loader with a raised
loaded bucket or fork.
3. Avoid loose fill, rocks and holes. They can be dangerous for
loader operation or movement.
4. Use care when operating on steep grades to maintain proper
stability. Always carry bucket or attachment as low as
possible.
5. Allow for loader length when making turns.
6. Stop loader arms gradually when lowering or lifting.
7. Use caution when handling loose or shiftable loads.
8. Carry bucket or attachment at a low position during transport
for better visibility.
9. When parking or servicing, lower bucket to ground, stop
engine and set park brakes before leaving tractor seat.
10. Operate loader controls only when properly seated at
controls.
11. Using front end loaders without special attachments for
handling large heavy objects such as large round or
rectangular bales, logs and oil drums is NOT
RECOMMENDED.
12. Handling large heavy objects can be extremely dangerous
due to:
Danger of rolling tractor over.
Danger of upending tractor.
Danger of objects rolling or sliding down loader arms onto
operator.
13. If you must perform this sort of work (see 12 above), protect
yourself by:
Use proper attachments only.
Never lift load higher than necessary to clear ground when
moving.
 Ballast tractor rear to compensate for load.
 Never lift large objects with equipment that does not have
an anti-rollback device.
 Move slowly and carefully, avoiding rough terrain.
MAINTENANCE
1. When servicing or replacing pins in cylinder ends, buckets,
etc., always use a drift and hammer of non-sparking material.
Failure to do so could result in injury from flying metal
fragments.
2. Do not modify or alter or permit anyone else to modify or alter
loader or any of its components or any loader function without
first consulting your Dealer. If you have any questions
regarding loader modifications contact your Rhino Dealer.
3. Always wear safety goggles when servicing or repairing
tractor or loader.
4. Escaping hydraulic/diesel fluid under pressure can penetrate
skin causing serious personal injury.
DO NOT use your hand to check for leaks. Use a piece of
cardboard or paper to search for leaks.
Stop engine and relieve pressure before connecting or
disconnecting hydraulic or diesel lines.
Tighten all connections before starting engine or
pressurizing lines.
If any fluid is injected into skin, obtain medical attention
immediately or gangrene may result.
5. Do not tamper with relief valve setting. Valve relief is factory-
set. Changing relief setting can cause overloading of your
tractor or loader and serious operator injury may result.

Never operate the Power Unit or Implement until you have read
and completely understand this Manual, the Power Unit Operators
Manual, and each of the Safety Messages found in the Manual or
on the Power Unit and Implement. Learn how to stop the Power
Unit engine suddenly in an emergency. Never allow inexperienced
or untrained personnel too operate the Power Unit and Implement
without supervision. Make sure the operator has fully read and
understood the manuals prior to operation.
Always maintain the safety decals in good readable condition. If
the decals are missing, damaged, or unreadable, obtain and install
replacement decals immediately.
Make certain that the Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) sign is installed in such a way as to be clearly
visible and legible. When transporting the Equipment use the Power Unit flashing warning lights and
follow all local traffic regulations.
Operate this Equipment only with a Tractor equipped with an
approved roll-over-protective system (ROPS). Always wear seat
belts. Serious injury or even death could result from falling off the
tractorparticularly during a turnover when the operator could be
pinned under the Operator Protective Structure.
Do not modify or alter this Implement. Do not permit anyone to
modify or alter this Implement, any of its components or any
Implement function.
BEFORE leaving the Power Unit seat, always engage the brake and/or set the Power Unit
transmission in parking gear, disengage the auxiliary hydraulics, stop the engine, remove the key, and
wait for all moving parts to stop. Place the Power Unit shift lever into a low range or parking gear to
prevent the tractor from rolling. Never dismount a Power Unit that is moving or while the engine is
running. Operate the Power Unit controls from the operator seat only.

Never allow children to operate or ride on the Power Unit or Implement.
Do not mount the Power Unit while the Power Unit is moving. Mount the
Power Unit only when the Power Unit and all moving parts are completely
stopped.
Start the Power Unit only when properly seated in the Power Unit seat.
Starting a Power Unit in gear can result in injury or death. Read the Power
Unit operator's manual for proper starting instructions.
Never work under the Implement, the framework, or any lifted component
unless the Implement is securely supported or blocked up to prevent
sudden or inadvertent falling which could cause serious injury or even
death.
The operator and all support personnel should wear hard hats, safety
shoes, safety glasses, and proper hearing protection at all times for
protection from injury including injury from items thrown by the
equipment.
PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO LOUD NOISE MAY CAUSE
PERMANENT HEARING LOSS! Tractors with or without an Implement
attached can often be noisy enough to cause permanent hearing loss.
We recommend that you always wear hearing protection if the noise in
the Operators position exceeds 80db. Noise over 85db over an extended
period of time will cause severe hearing loss. Noise over 90db adjacent to
the Operator over an extended period of time will cause permanent or
total 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

Do not operate this Equipment with hydraulic oil leaking. Oil is expensive
and its presence could present a hazard. Do not check for leaks with your
hand! Use a piece of heavy paper or cardboard. High- pressure oil streams
from breaks in the line could penetrate the skin and cause tissue damage
including gangrene. If oil does penetrate the skin, have the injury treated
immediately by a physician knowledgeable and skilled in this procedure.
Transport only at safe speeds. Serious accidents and injuries can result
from operating this equipment at unsafe speeds. Understand the Power
Unit and Implement and how it handles before transporting on streets and
highways. Make sure the Power Unit steering and brakes are in good
condition and operate properly.
Before transporting the Power Unit and Implement, determine the safe
transport speeds for you and the equipment. Make sure you abide by the
following rules:
1. Test the Power Unit at a slow speed and increase the speed slowly.
Apply the Brakes smoothly to determine the stopping characteristics of
the Power Unit and Implement.
As you increase the speed of the Power Unit the stopping distance
increases. Determine the maximum safe transport speed for you and
this Equipment.
2. Test the equipment at a slow speed in turns. Increase the speed
through the turn only after you determine that it is safe to operate at a
higher speed. Use extreme care and reduce your speed when turning
sharply to prevent the Power Unit and Implement from turning over.
Determine the maximum safe turning speed for you and this equipment
before operating on roads or uneven ground.
3. Only transport the Power Unit and Implement at the speeds that you
have determined are safe and which allow you to properly control the
equipment.
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Power Unit with
weak or faulty brakes. When operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick
roads, the braking distance increases: Use extreme care and reduce your
speed. When operating in traffic always use the Power Unit's flashing
warning lights and reduce your speed. Be aware of the traffic around you
and watch out for the other guy.
Never attempt to lubricate, adjust, or remove material from the Implement
while it is in motion or while Power Unit engine is running. Make sure the
Power Unit engine is off before working on the Implement!
Periodically inspect all moving parts for wear and replace when necessary
with authorized service parts. Look for loose fasteners, worn or broken
parts, and leaky or loose fittings. Make sure all pins have cotter pins and
washers. Serious injury may occur from not maintaining this machine in
good working order.

DISMOUNTING LOADER
WARNING: To avoid injury during
installation or removal of loader, do not allow
bystanders within 10 feet of loader and
bucket or optional attachment.
WARNING: Always have a heavy
attachment, such as a bucket, mounted to
loader when it is removed from tractor. Pallet
fork, bale spear, or similar attachments are
too light to safely counterbalance loader
boom arms when loader is dismounted from
tractor.
1. Locate tractor and loader on firm level ground.
2. With bucket raised above ground, tilt down
approximately 30 degrees from level.
3. Lower boom by retracting lift cylinders to lift tractor
front end (tires can be off ground).
4. Stop engine. Allow tractor front end to lower by
relaxing ONLY lift cylinders with control lever. This will
remove pressure on hitch pins (see Figure C).
