Perform service, repairs and lubrication according to the maintenance section. Ensure the
unit is properly lubricated as specified in the lubrication schedule and all bolts and nuts are
properly torqued. Failure to properly service, repair and maintain this Implement in good
operating condition could cause component failure and possible serious injury or even
death.
Replace bent or broken blades with new blades. NEVER ATTEMPT TO STRAIGHTEN,
WELD, OR WELD HARDFACING ON BLADES SINCE THIS WILL LIKELY CRACK OR
OTHERWISE DAMAGE THE BLADE WITH SUBSEQUENT FAILURE AND POSSIBLY
CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY FROM THROWN BLADES.
Never leave the Power Unit and Implement unattended while the Implement is in the lifted
position. Accidental operation of the lifting lever or a hydraulic failure may cause a sudden
drop of the unit with possible injury or death by crushing. Fully lower the Implement to
ground level to disconnect the Implement or to perform service. Do not put hands or feet
under lifted components.
Always disconnect the auxiliary hydraulic couplers from the Power Unit before performing
service on the Implement. Never work on the Implement with the Power Unit auxiliary
hydraulics connected. Rotating parts could turn without warning and cause immediate
entanglement, injury or death.
Never crawl under a raised Implement supported solely by the Power Unit boom. Release
of the control lever or mechanical failure will result in the Implement falling and possible
injury or death. Always securely block up the Implement before crawling underneath to
perform repairs and service.
Relieve hydraulic pressure prior to doing any maintenance or repair work on the Implement.
Place the Mower Head on the ground or securely supported on blocks or stands, disengage
the auxiliary hydraulics, and turn off the engine. Push and pull the Control Levers several
times to relieve pressure prior to starting any maintenance or repair work.
Always disconnect the main PTO Driveline from the Tractor before performing service on
the Snow Blower. Never work on the Snow Blower with the Tractor PTO driveline connected
and running. The Fan, Auger or Drivelines could turn without warning and cause immediate
entanglement, injury or death.
All Safety Shields, Guards and Safety devices including (but not limited to) - the Chain
Shield, Cross Shaft Shield, Gearbox Shields, and PTO integral shields must be used and
maintained in good working condition. All safety devices should be inspected carefully at
least daily for missing or broken components. Missing, broken, or worn items must be
replaced at once to reduce the possibility of injury or death from entanglement.
DO NOT weld or repair rotating Blower components. Welds and other repairs may cause
severe vibration and/or component failure resulting in parts being thrown from the blower
causing serious bodily injury. See your Authorized Dealer for proper repairs.
