This Manual
Right-hand and left-hand, as used in this manual, are determined by facing the direction the machine will travel when in
use.
The photos, illustrations, and data used in this manual were current at the time of printing, but due to the possible in-line
production changes, your machine can vary slightly in detail. The manufacturer reserves the right to redesign and change
the machine as necessary without modification.
Operation
Prepare For Operation

Know and understand the positions and operations of all controls. Make certain all controls are in neutral and the parking
brake is applied before starting the machine. Make sure the steering wheel is centered and locked.
Make certain all people are well away from the area of work before starting and operating the machine. Check and learn
all controls in an area clear of people and obstacles before starting work. Be aware of the machine size and have enough
space available to allow for operation. Never operate the machine at high speeds in crowded places.
Emphasize the importance of using correct procedures when working around and operating the machine. Do not let
children or unqualified persons operate the machine. Keep others, especially children, away for the area of work. Do not
permit others to ride on the machine.
Make sure the machine is in the proper operating condition as stated in the Operator’s Manual. Make sure the machine
has the correct equipment required by local regulations.
All equipment has a limit. Understand the speed, brakes, steering, stability and load characteristics of the equipment
before starting.
In some illustrations and photos used in this manual, shields or guards may have been
removed for clarity. Never operate the machine with any shields or guards removed. If
the removal of shields or guards is necessary to make a repair, they must be replaced
before operation.
Any time the engine is running and the parking brake is disengaged, the machine will
turn if the steering wheel is moved even though the travel control lever is in neutral.

protective clothing issued or called for by job conditions
and county / local regulations. PPE includes, but is not
limited to, equipment to protect eyes, lungs, ears, head,
hands and feet when operating, servicing or repairing
equipment.
Agricultural Chemicals

Operation (Cont’d)
Traveling On Public Roads
Always walk around and visually inspect the machine before traveling on public roads. As a warning, honk the horn twice
before starting the engine. Check for damage and / or faulty components that can fail and create a hazardous condition.
Make sure all the machine systems operate properly. The following, including, but not limited to: front road lights, tail and
brake lights, hazard warning lights, parking brake, horn, windshield wiper and washer and rear view mirrors. Repair or
replace any component not in proper working order.
Never drive at a speed causing the machine to bounce or lose control.
Obey all traffic rules. Operate the machine with hazard warning lights on, unless prohibited by law. Use of road lights while
traveling on public roads is operator’s responsibility.
Machine was designed for apply chemicals and fertilizers in off-road use. Do not use the
machine for transporting product on public roads. Chemical spills result in
environmental damage. A loaded machine driven on public roads also runs a high risk of
tire failure. Personal injury could result.

Maintenance
Fire Prevention And First Aid
Be prepared for emergencies.
Keep a first aid kit handy for treatment of minor cuts and
scratches.
Always carry one or more fire extinguishers of the correct
type. Check fire extinguishers regularly as instructed by
the manufacturer. Make sure the fire extinguishers are
properly charged and in operating condition.
Due to the nature of the crops this machine will operate
in, the risk of fire is of concern. Use a water type fire
extinguisher or other water source for a fire in crops.
For fires involving anything other than crops, such as oil
or electrical components, use a dry chemical fire
extinguisher with a ABC rating.
Mount fire extinguishers within easy reach of where fires
can occur.
Frequently remove accumulated crop material from the
machine and check for overheated components. Check
the machine daily for any noises that are not normal.
Such noises could indicate a failed component that can
cause excess heat.
If any flame cutting, welding, or arc welding is to be done
on the machine or attachments, make sure to clear any
crop material or debris from around the area. Make sure
the area below the work area is clear of any flammable
material as falling molten metal or sparks can ignite the
material.
If fire occurs stand upwind and away from the smoke
from the fire.

High Pressure Leaks
Fluid leaking from the hydraulic system or the fuel
injection system under high pressure can be very hard to
see. The fluid can go into the skin causing serious injury.
Fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed
within a few hours. If not removed immediately, serious
infection or reaction can develop. Go immediately to a
doctor who knows about this type of injury.
Use a piece of cardboard or wood to search for possible
leaks. Do not use your bare hand. Wear leather gloves for
hand protection and safety goggles for eye protection.
Relieve all pressure before loosening any hydraulic lines.
Relieve the pressure by lowering raised equipment,
shutting off accumulator valve, if equipped, and shutting
off the engine. Tighten all connections securely before
apply pressure.

QX2 5 SECTION CULTIVATOR
Maintenance (Cont’d)
Tire Safety
Check the tires for cuts, bulges and the correct pressure.
Replace worn or damaged tires. When tire service is
needed, have a qualified tire mechanic service the tire.
Changing the tire can be very hazardous and must be
done by a qualified tire mechanic using the proper tools
and equipment. See the Specifications Sections for the
correct tire size.
Tire explosion and / or serious injury can result from over
inflation. Do not exceed the tire inflation pressures. See
the Specifications Section for the correct tire pressure.
Do not inflate a tire that is seriously under inflated or has
been run flat. Have the tire checked by a qualified tire
mechanic.
Do not weld on the rim when a tire is installed. Welding
can make an air / gas mixture that can cause an
explosion and burn with high temperatures. This danger
applies to all tires, inflated or deflated. Removing air or
breaking the bead is not enough. The tire must be
completely removed from the rim prior to welding.
When preparing a calcium chloride solution for fluid
ballasting the tractor tires, never pour water onto the
calcium chloride. A chlorine gas can be generated which
is poisonous and explosive. This can be avoided by
slowly adding calcium chloride flakes to water and stirring
until they are dissolved.
When seating tire beads onto the rims, never exceed 2.4
bars (35 psi) or the maximum inflation pressure specified
on the tire. Inflation beyond this maximum pressure may
break the bead, or even the rim, with explosive force.
