Equipment Operation Safety Instructions and Practices
Extreme caution should be used by the Tractor operator when operating near passersby.
Stop raking if anyone comes within 25 feet of the Implement to prevent possible passerby
injury or death from being struck from a thrown object, entanglement with the rakes, or run
over.
(SRK-01)
Do not back up with this implement. Backing could damage the machine or its components.
(S3PT-4)
Use extreme care when lowering or unfolding the implement’s wings. Make sure no
bystanders are close by or underneath the wings. Allow ample clearance around the
implement when folding or unfolding the wings. Use extreme caution around buildings or
overhead power lines.
(S3PT-05)
There are obvious and hidden potential hazards in the operation of this Implement as in all
power-driven or pulled equipment. REMEMBER! This machine is often operated in rough
terrain conditions that include tall grass, weeds, gullies, holes, slopes, hidden obstructions
and the like. Serious injury or even death may occur unless care is taken to assure the
safety of the operator and bystanders in the area. Do not operate this machine with anyone
in the immediate area.
(S3PT-07)
This Implement may be wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting
this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard rails,
concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the Implement and
Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious injury, or even death.
Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles.
(S3PT-12)
Operate this Implement only in conditions where you have clear visibility in daylight or with
adequate artificial lighting. Never operate in darkness or foggy conditions where you
cannot clearly see at least 100 yards in front and to the sides of the tractor and implement.
Make sure that you can clearly see and identify passersby, steep slopes, ditches, drop-offs,
overhead obstructions, power lines, debris and foreign objects. If you are unable to clearly
see this type of items discontinue operating this equipment.
(S3PT-21)
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 ROPS.
