INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY INFORMATION

Transporting Safety
IMPORTANT
It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to
comply with all state and local laws.
•
When transporting the implement on a road or
highway, use adequate warning symbols, reflectors,
lights and slow moving vehicle sign as required. Slow
moving tractors and towed implements can create a
hazard when driven on public roads. They are difficult
to see, especially at night.
•
Carry reflectors or flags to mark the tractor and
implement in case of breakdown on the road.
Attaching, Detaching and
Storage
DANGER
IMPORTANT
Always store the Power Ditcher with Parking Stands
extended to ground and secured with pins, stabilizing
the machine.
Maintenance Safety
DANGER
•
Understand the procedure before doing the work.
•
Use proper tools and equipment.
•
Make sure all moving parts have stopped.
•
Block the implement so it will not roll when working on
or under it to prevent injury.

Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy.
•
Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance,
hospital, and fire department near the phone.
Protective Equipment

Wear protective clothing and equipment appropriate
for the job. Avoid loose fitting clothing.
•
Because prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause
hearing impairment or hearing loss, wear suitable
hearing protection, such as earmuffs or earplugs.
• Do not stand between the tractor and implement
when attaching or detaching implement unless
both are not moving.
• Store in an area where children do not play.
• Stop the tractor and disengage the PTO before
making any adjustments. Keep all shields in
place.
• Do not make adjustments or lubricate implement
while it is in motion.
