2. Safety
2.1 General
Safety of the operator and bystanders is one of the
main concerns in designing and developing a new
piece of equipment. Designers and manufacturers
build in as many safety features as possible. However,
every year many accidents occur which could have
been avoided by a few seconds of thought and a more
careful approach to handling the equipment.
Most work-related accidents are caused by failure to
observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident
can often be avoided by recognizing potentially
hazardous situations before an accident occurs. As
you assemble, operate, or maintain the rotary cutter
(unit), you must be alert to potential hazards. You
should also have the necessary training, skills,
and tools to perform any assembly or maintenance
procedures.
Improper operation and maintenance of this unit could
result in a dangerous situation that could cause injury
or death.
If you have any questions not answered in this manual

CAUTION
The following safety instructions are provided to

instructions may lead to injury.
Personal Protection Equipment
When using this rotary cutter, wear appropriate
personal protective equipment. This list may

Ear Protection
Wear suitable ear protection during prolonged
exposure to excessive noise.
Hearing Loss
Prolonged Exposure To Loud Noise May
Cause Permanent Hearing Loss!
Working environments with noise-producing
equipment can cause partial to permanent hearing
loss. We recommend using hearing protection any
time noise levels exceed 80 decibels (dB). Noise
levels over 85 dB, on a long-term basis, can cause
severe hearing loss. Noise levels over 90 dB over a
period of time can cause permanent and even total
hearing loss.
Hearing loss from loud noise is cumulative over a
lifetime without hope of natural recovery.
Crush Hazard
The tractor should be equipped with a
Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS)
and a seat belt. A crushing hazard can occur if the
driver is ejected from the seat while the tractor is in
motion. Fasten the seat belt whenever the tractor is
moving.

3. SAFETY SIGNS AND INSTRUCTIONAL LABELS
3.1 General Information
The types of safety signs (hazard labels) and
instructional labels, along with their locations on the
equipment, are shown in the following illustrations.
Good safety practices require that you familiarize
yourself with the various safety signs, the type of
warning, and the area or particular operation related to
that area that requires your SAFETY AWARENESS.
THINK
SAFETY!
Think SAFETY!
Work SAFELY!
Pay close attention to the safety signs and instructional
labels attached to the tractor and the rotary cutter.
Duplicate safety signs, which are attached to the rotary
cutter, can also be found in this section. If the rotary
cutter is missing a label or one is unreadable, replace
the label before using the rotary cutter.

Safety Signs and Instructional Labels
1. Keep safety signs or instructional labels clean
and legible at all times. Use a clean, damp cloth
to clean safety decals.
2. Replace any missing or hard-to-read safety signs
or instructional labels.
3. Use care when washing or cleaning the equipment
not to remove or damage the labels. When using
a pressure washer to clean the rotary cutter, avoid
spraying too close to decals; high-pressure water
can enter through very small scratches or under
edges of decals causing them to peel or come o.
4. Locations for the labels and replacement part
numbers are shown in this section.
5. Replacement parts must have replacement labels
attached during installation and/or before the
rotary cutter is used.
6. Labels are available from your authorized dealer
or from Titan Implement at no charge.
3.2 How to Install Replacement Safety Signs
1. Clean and dry the installation area.
Note: Do not install the signs if the temperature is
below 50°F.
2. Determine the exact position before you remove the
backing paper.
3. Remove the backing paper.
4. Align the sign over the specied area and carefully
press the sign to the part/frame.
Note: Small air pockets can be pierced with a pin and
smoothed out using the piece of backing paper.
