SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Lack of attention to safety can result in accident, personal injury, reduction of efficiency and worst of all
loss of life. Watch for safety hazards and correct deficiencies promptly. Use the following safety precautions
as a general guide to safe operations when using this machine. Additional safety precautions are used
throughout this manual for specific operating and maintenance procedures. Read this manual and review
the safety precautions often until you know the limitations.
1. Read the Operator's Manual.
2. Become familiar with all the machine's controls and all the caution, warning, and danger
decals affixed to the machine before attempting to start or operate machine.
3. Before starting or operating the machine, make a walk around inspection and check for
obvious defects such as loose mounting bolts and damaged components. Correct any
deficiency before starting.
4.
Do not allow children to operate the loader. Do not allow adults to operate it without proper
instruction.
5.
Do not carry passengers.
6. Keep the area of operation clear of all persons particularly small children and pets.
7. Use a piece of cardboard or wood rather than hands to search for hydraulic leaks. Escaping
hydraulic oil under pressure can penetrate the skin. If fluid is injected into the skin, it must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene
may result.

tractor.
9. Do not lift or carry anyone in the bucket or on any other portion of the loader or loader
attachment.
