SAFETY
Read and understand all the safety messages listed in this manual. For your safety and
the safety of others near the machine, learn how to control and operate the loader
properly. It is your responsibility to inform subsequent operators and owners of these
precautions.
General Safety Notes:
9Improper use of the loader and tractor can cause serious injury or death.
9Operate the loader while seated in the tractor seat only.
9Keep the work area clear of other persons.
9Never leave the tractor unattended while the attachment is raised. Always lower the
attachment to ground and shut tractor off before leaving the tractor seat.
9Never work beneath a raised loader unless it is securely supported. The control
lever can be moved or a hydraulic leak could cause the loader to drop resulting in
serious injury or death. Refer to the Hydraulic Lock Instructions Decal for proper use
of the lift locks.
9Prior to use, check to ensure the attachment is properly locked to the quick-tach.
Verify from tractor seat by lowering the attachment to the ground and retracting the
lift cylinders.
9Never operate loader with frayed or damaged hoses or leaking fittings. A burst
could cause the loader to drop suddenly and result in serious injury or death and
cause damage to the loader or tractor.
9Keep tractor on solid ground when raising loader. Loose fill rocks and holes can be
dangerous for loader operation and movement.
9If for some reason, you feel the tractor tipping, immediately lower the loader.
9A pivoting front axle acts like a three-wheeled tractor until the stops hit the axle.
9Space rear tires as recommended by the tractor manufacturer. Maximize width for
high lift applications and uneven terrain.
9Add rear ballast as required to ensure 25% of gross vehicle weight is transferred to
the rear axle. Loader, attachment and payload must be included as weight.
9Do not raise attachment to extreme heights while tractor is on an incline. Be alert for
terrain changes and adjust accordingly. Keep attachment at low travel height, no
more than one foot, as long as possible.
9Allow for attachment and loader length when turning.
9The tractor must be equipped with an approved Roll Over Protection Structure
(ROPS) and safety belts.
9Use proper lighting and safety warnings when transporting equipment on public
roads and during darkness. The Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV) emblem must be
visible. Check with your local Law Enforcement Agency for specific requirements.
