snag clothes, skin, hair, hands, etc. This can
cause serious injury or death.

is running.
• Do not work on a shaft (with or without a guard)
while the engine is running.
• Do not engage or disengage driven equipment
by hand from under the vehicle while the engine
is running.
• In order to avoid becoming entangled, install the
power take off and/or shaft behind the frame rail,
tanks, battery box, etc.
• If power take off and/or shaft are still exposed
after installation, install a guard.
• Install a support strap when servicing a drive
shaft to prevent personal injury.
A SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURY CAN OCCUR:
• If you lack proper training
• If you fail to follow proper procedures
• If you do not use proper tools and safety
equipment
• If you assemble drive line components
improperly
