1. Make sure material is not concentrated at the
   rear of the machine before unhitching. Material
   at the rear of the machine may cause the trailer
   hitch to tip upward.
2. Read and understand the precautionary decals on
   the spreader. Replace any that become defaced,
   damaged, lost or painted over. Replacement
   decals can be ordered from your dealers parts
   department or from Highway Equipment Company by
   calling [phone].
3. If spreader is used to transport chemicals, check
   with your chemical supplier regarding DOT
   (Department of Transportation) requirements.
4. DO NOT EXCEED GOVERNMENT WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS!
   Consult federal, state, and local laws to ensure
   the gross weight on any one axle of a vehicle, or
   of a combination of vehicles, operated on
   highways, does not exceed government weight
   restrictions.
5. Cover all loads that can spill or blow away. Do
   not spread dusty materials where dust may create
   pollution or a traffic visibility problem.

1. Take care when backing as visibility may be
   limited. Turning and backing at sharp angles will
   cause the tractor and implement to jack-knife.
   DO NOT exceed angles specified in General
   Operating Procedures.
2. Turn slowly and be careful when traveling on
   rough surfaces and side slopes, especially with a
   loaded spreader. Load may shift causing unit to
   tip.
3. Make sure material is not concentrated at the
   rear of the machine before unhitching. Material
   at the rear of the machine may cause the trailer
   hitch to tip upward.

28. Read and understand the precautionary decals
on the spreader. Replace any that become defaced,
damaged, lost or painted over. Replacement decals
can be ordered from your dealers parts
department or from Highway Equipment Company by
