other lines. Tighten all connections before

under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard
or paper to search for leaks. Do not use your
hand.

surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor familiar with this type injury or gangrene
may result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of
injury may call the Deere & Company Medical
Department in Moline, Illinois, or other
knowledgeable medical source.
