Keep tractor steps clean to avoid accidents due to
slippage.
Cover the PTO shaft with a guard when not using.
Be sure to apply the brake and lower any attach-
ment or implement before disassembling any part.
Never adjust or service the tractor when it is in
motion or while the engine is running.
Always adjust the brake or clutch properly in
accordance with the adjusting procedure in the
instruction book.
Do not remove the radiator cap while the engine is
running. Shut down the engine and wait until it
cools sufficiently. For removal, turn the cap to
the first stop to relieve pressure. To replace the
coolant, use the coolant recovery tank.
A7. Hydraulic oil or fuel escaping under pressure can
penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. Before
disconnecting oil or fuel lines, be sure to relieve all
pressure. Before restoring pressure after repair,
be sure all connections are tight and all hydraulic
components are in normal condition.
If injured by leaked fluid, see a doctor immedi-
ately for proper treatment.
8. When refueling, be particulary careful first to stop
the engine completely to prevent the fuel from
igniting. Never refuel in the presence of an open
flame or while smoking. Always use funnel when
adding fuel and refuel only out of doors. When
refueling
is completed, wipe any spilled fuel off
the tractor and securely fasten the cap of the fuel
tank.
