These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products described in

Prepare for Emergencies
▲ Be prepared if a fire starts.
▲ Keep a first aid kit and fire 
extinguisher handy.
▲ Keep emergency numbers for 
doctor, ambulance, hospital, and 
fire department near phone.
Avoid High 
Pressure Fluids Hazard
▲ Escaping fluid under pressure can 
penetrate the skin causing serious 
injury.
▲ Avoid the hazard by relieving 
pressure before disconnecting 
hydraulic lines or performing work 
on the system.
▲ Make sure all hydraulic fluid 
connections are tight and all 
hydraulic hoses and lines are in 
good condition before applying 
pressure to the system.
▲ Use a piece of paper or 
cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to 
check for suspected leaks.
▲ Wear protective gloves and safety 
glasses or goggles when working 
with hydraulic systems.
▲ DO NOT DELAY. If an accident 
occurs, see a doctor familiar with 
this type of injury immediately. Any 
fluid injected into the skin or eyes 
must be treated within 
a few hours or 
gangrene may 
result.

Keep Riders Off 
Machinery
▲ Never carry riders or use

▲ Riders could be struck by foreign 
objects or thrown from the 
machine.
▲ Never allow children to operate 
equipment.
Wear 
Protective Equipment
▲ Wear protective clothing and 
equipment appropriate for the job 
such as safety shoes, safety 
glasses, hard hat, and ear plugs.
▲ Clothing should fit snug without 
fringes and pull strings to avoid 
entanglement with moving parts.
▲ Prolonged exposure to loud noise 
can cause hearing impairment or 
hearing loss. Wear suitable 
hearing protection such as 
earmuffs or earplugs.
▲ Operating equipment safely 
requires the operator’s full 
attention. Avoid wearing radio 
headphones while operating 
machinery.
Use Seat Belt and ROPS
▲ Operate only tractors equipped 
with a Roll-Over Protective 
Structure (ROPS) and seat belt. 
▲ Keep folding ROPS in the “locked 
up” position at all times.
▲ Fasten seat belt snugly and 
securely to help protect against 
serious injury or death from falling 
and machine overturn.
▲ Wear protective equipment such 
as a hard hat, safety shoes, safety 
glasses, and ear plugs.
Tire Safety
▲ Tire changing can be dangerous 
and should be performed by 
trained personnel using the 
correct tools and equipment.
▲ When inflating tires, use a clip-on 
chuck and extension hose long 
enough to allow you to stand to 
one side and NOT in front of or 
over the tire assembly. Use a 
safety cage if available.
▲ When removing and installing 
wheels, use wheel handling 
equipment adequate for the 
weight involved.
