GENERAL OPERATION ANDSERVICE Operating• Read and understand all the operating and safety precautions before operating the machinery.• In addition to the equipment configuration and design, hazard control and accident prevention depend on awareness, concern, prudence and proper training of the personnel in the operation, maintenance, transport and storage of the equipment. • Always raise the implement, shut off the tractor engine, set the brakes, shift to park position (or neutral) and install the cylinder lockup channels before working around the machine.• Avoid working under the planter. However, if it becomes unavoidable to do so, make sure the planter is securely blocked and the cylinder lockup channels are in place.• Do not attempt to lubricate or adjust the planter while the machine is in operation.• The machinery operation must be performed only by persons who are responsible and delegated to do so. • Only the operator must be permitted on the tractor (unless tractor has a factory-installed instructor seat) when the tractor and the planter are moving. Never permit anyone to ride on the planter.• Avoid wearing loose-fitting clothing and jewelry. Always tie up long hair that can be caught in the moving parts. • Wear personal protective equipment (PPE) such as, but not limited to, protection for eyes, lungs, ears, head, hands and feet when operating, servicing or repairing the equipment.• Make sure all persons are clear before operating the tractor or machine.• Do not leave the tractor or implement unattended with the engine running.• Never attempt to operate the planter unless seated in the operator’s seat on the tractor with the seat belt fastened. 79033455 A Rev. Safety• The tractor must be equipped with rollover protective structure (ROPS), and a seat belt. Use the seat belt during operation. • Make sure the tractor is in good operating condition, and has adequate braking capabilities.• Do not dismount from a moving tractor.• Regulate the ground speed to field conditions, and maintain control at all times.• When working around discs, be careful to not get cut on the sharp edges.• Watch for overhead wires or other obstructions when raising markers, and when moving the planter with the marker(s) raised. • Disconnect the planter. Store the planter where children do not normally play. Stabilize the planter by using suitable supports, and block the wheels.• Always lower the planter when not in use and relieve pressure in the hoses and cylinders.• Do not allow children to ride on, play on, or operate equipment. Always keep children away from the equipment operating, servicing, and storage areas.• Do not stand between the tractor and planter to install the hitch pin when the tractor engine is running. 01
