See Operator’s Manual for Details

Inspection Performed - Warranty and Safety Procedures Explained - Installation Complete

  I have informed the Purchaser of this product of Warranty terms, provisions, and procedures that are applicable, reviewed the contents of the Operator’s Manual

including safety equipment, safe operation, and maintenance, reviewed the Safety Signs on implement (and tractor if possible), and  Purchaser’s responsibility to

train his operators in safe operation.

  IMPLEMENTS

: I have explained that Deflectors, Chain Guards, or Solid Skirts must be maintained in good repair and installed except in areas where persons,

vehicles, livestock, or other property will not be endangered by thrown objects and where such safety equipment would prevent the mower’s reasonable performance

of its assigned task.

  DRIVELINES: 

 I have made certain that all driveline, gearbox, and other shields are in good repair and fastened securely in place to prevent injuries  from

entanglement or thrown objects.

  

HYDRAULIC MACHINES:

  I have explained the necessity of using clean hydraulic oil, changing filters as instructed, stopping leaks, damage caused by

operating with over-heated oil, caring for hoses, using hoses of proper rating, the necessity of maintaining the specified operating pressure, and the potential hazard

of oil's penetrating the skin.

 

 BOOM-TYPE or FOLDING-TYPE IMPLEMENTS:

  I have explained that it is not possible to guard against thrown objects when the head is lifted off ground

and that operator is responsible to watch out for persons in the area.  I have explained that the lifted mower head or boom can contact overhead obstructions with

damage to cables and telephone lines and possible injury.  I have explained that the extended head or boom or retracted boom can contact power lines with resulting

electrocution injury or death and that operator is responsible for keeping clear of such hazards.

Dealer’s Signature ___________________________________ Date ______________

I have been instructed on the  paragraphs above, received and have been instructed in the contents of the Operator’s Manual including safety signs, safety
equipment, safe operation, maintenance, and the potential hazards of unauthorized alteration or modification of the product.  I have been informed of the warranty
provisions and know that the warranty is not in effect until this form is received by Alamo Group.
I understand the Implement Guarding statements above and the potential hazards of operating without such guards. I understand that the operator is responsible for
the safety of others in the area. I have examined the product and accept it as being complete and in satisfactory condition with all required guards.
