Safety
Keep children out of the work area and under the
watchful care of another responsible adult.
Be alert and turn the traction unit off if children
enter the area.
Before and while backing, look behind and down
for small children.
Never carry children. They may fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with safe traction
unit operation.
Never allow children to operate the traction unit.
Use extra care when approaching blind corners,
shrubs, trees, the end of a fence, or other objects
that may obscure vision.
Service
Stop the engine before performing any service,
repairs, maintenance, or adjustments.
If any maintenance or repair requires the loader
arms to be in the raised position, secure the arms
in the raised position with the hydraulic cylinder
locks included with traction unit.
Never run a traction unit inside a closed area.
Keep nuts and bolts tight. Keep equipment in
good condition.
Never tamper with safety devices. Check safety
systems for proper operation before each use.
Keep the traction unit free of grass, leaves, or
other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel
spillage. Allow the traction unit to cool before
storing.
Use extra care when handling diesel and other
fuels. They are flammable and vapors are
explosive.
Use only an approved container.
Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel when
the engine is running. Allow the engine to
cool before refueling. Do not smoke.
4
Never refuel the traction unit indoors.
Never store the traction unit or fuel
container inside where there is an open
flame, such as near a water heater or
furnace.
Stop and inspect the equipment if you strike an
object. Make any necessary repairs before
restarting.
Use only genuine replacement parts to ensure
that original standards are maintained.
Battery acid is poisonous and can cause burns.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing.
Protect your face, eyes, and clothing when
working with a battery.
Battery gases can explode. Keep cigarettes,
sparks and flames away from the battery.
Keep your body and hands away from pin hole
leaks or nozzles that eject high pressure
hydraulic fluid. Use cardboard or paper to find
hydraulic leaks. Hydraulic fluid escaping under
pressure can penetrate skin and cause injury
requiring surgery within a few hours by a
qualified surgeon or gangrene may result.
