General Hazard Information
No accident-prevention program can be successful without the wholehearted cooperation of
the person who is directly responsible for the operation of the equipment.
A large number of accidents can be prevented only by the operator anticipating the result
before the accident is caused and doing something about it. No power-driven equipment,
whether it be transportation or processing, whether it be on the highway, in the field, or in
the industrial plant, can be safer than the person who is at the controls. If accidents are
to be prevented--and they can be prevented--it will be done by the operators who accept
the full measure of their responsibility.
It is true that the designer, the manufacturer, and the safety engineer can help; and they will
help, but their combined efforts can be wiped out by a single careless act of the operator.
It is said that, “the best kind of a safety device is a careful operator.” We, at Unverferth
Mfg. Co., Inc. ask that you be that kind of operator.
REMEMBER:
THINK SAFETY
A CAREFUL OPERATOR IS THE
BEST INSURANCE AGAINST AN
ACCIDENT!

Assemble Hitch/Gooseneck to Undercarriage
1. If the Seed Chariot tender was shipped with a hitch/gooseneck installed, torque 5/8”-11 UNC
retaining hardware to 120-135 ft.-lbs. If the tender was shipped without a hitch/gooseneck installed,
proceed to step 2.
2. Place jackstand rated for minimum 1000 lbs.
capacity under front of undercarriage frame.
Raise hitch using a safe lifting device with
a minimum 1000 lbs. capacity, and place the
hitch/gooseneck in line with the undercarriage.
3. Connect the electrical connections, and push
extra wire harness into tubes. Move hitch
against undercarriage frame being careful not
to pinch the wiring harness.
4. Bolt the hitch/gooseneck to undercarriage
using 5/8”-11UNC x 2 1/4” capscrews (9390-
125), 5/8” stainless steel flat washers (903108),
and 5/8”-11UNC locknuts (9801). Torque 5/8”-
11UNC hardware to 120-135 ft.-lbs.
5. Verify the function of the lighting. See
Maintenance section for the schematic, if
needed.

bracket (29477CG) using two 3/8”-16UNC x 3
3/4” capscrews (9390-066) and 3/8”-16UNC top
locknuts (9928). The load cells must be assembled
so the ‘TOP’ indicator on the load cell is located
to the top of the bracket or rotate the load cell so
the “bending direction” decal on the end of the
bar points down. Using a safe lifting device with
minimum 5000 lb. lift capacity, carefully lift one side
