user safety training requirements.
WARNING
STOP
Roll Away Hazard
Before leaving the
tractor seat, make sure
the engine is stopped, the transmission is placed in
park, the key is removed, and the parking brake is
set.
The weight of the tractor, plus the rotary
cutter if it rolls onto a person, can cause
serious crushing injury or death.
Crush Hazard
The tractor should be equipped with
a Roll Over Protective Structure
(ROPS) and a seat belt. A crushing hazard can occur
if the driver is ejected from the seat while the tractor
is in motion. Fasten the seat belt whenever the
tractor is moving.
The rotary cutter is top heavy when the wings are
raised. To avoid injury or death from rollover, use
caution when transporting over uneven surfaces
and slow down for turns.
Thrown Object Hazard
Cutters can throw objects up to 300 feet.
To avoid serious injury or death:
1) Keep all thrown object shielding in place.
2) Inspect area for potential thrown objects
before cutting.
3) Do not operate rotary cutter with the deck raised.
Thrown Object Hazard
For non-agricultural use, OSHA, ASAE, SAE,
and ANSI standards require the use of chain
guards or other protective guards at all times.
Stay Clear
Clear the work area of all unnecessary people
and obstructions to prevent personal injury.
Cutter Blade Contact Hazard (hand)
To avoid serious injury or death, keep away
from rotating blades. Do not put hands
under cutter deck.
Cutter Blade Contact Hazard (foot)
To avoid serious injury or death, keep away
from rotating blades. Do not put feet under
rotary cutter deck.
WARNING
Crush Hazard
Hydraulic or mechanical failure can allow a
wing to drop suddenly without warning. Do
not allow anyone to walk under or stand near
a raised wing when the uplock pins are removed.
Entanglement Hazard
Operating the rotary cutter without the
driveline shields can result in physical injury
or death from entanglement. Make sure all shields
are properly installed before operating the rotary
cutter. This equipment should never be operated
with any safety shielding removed.
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
The following safety instructions are provided to
help prevent injury or limit equipment damage.
THINK
SAFETY!
Train Unfamiliar Users
It is the rotary cutter owner’s
responsibility to make sure any person
using the rotary cutter, especially if it is loaned or
rented, has been thoroughly trained on its proper
and safe use.
Be certain only physically-able persons will use the
rotary cutter.
Users who have not read and understood all
operating and safety instructions are not qualified
to use the rotary cutter.
If the elderly are assisting with the work, their
physical limitations need to be recognized and
accommodated.
Never allow children to operate equipment.
Fire Hazard
Clippings are flammable. To reduce the
risk of fire:
1) Do not operate near fires.
2) Keep the rotary cutter deck clear of clippings
and debris.
N O TIC E
Wing cutting blades may become locked together
(overlapped) when the wings are raised for transport.
Operating the cutter in this condition will result in severe
deck vibration. Inspect the wings for locked blades prior
to lowering the wings. Use a pry bar or other tool to free
any locked blades.
