USE SEAT BELT PROPERLY Use a seat belt when you
operate with a roll-over protective structure
(ROPS) to minimize chance of injury from an
accident such as an overturn. Do not use a seat
belt if operating without a ROPS.
OPERATE SAFELY DO NOT operate drill with more
than one person on the tractor. DO NOT allow
anyone to ride on the drill. DO NOT operate close
to a ditch or creek. Drive slowly over rough
ground. Shift the tractor into a lower gear when
operating on steep slopes. If your tractor is
equipped with a ROLL-GARD Safety Canopy and seat
belt be sure to keep your seat belt fastened when
operating or transporting the drill. Handle and
apply chemically treated seeds according to
manufacturers recommendations. Properly dispose
of un- used treated seeds and their
containers. Always shut off tractor engine and
shift to park when leaving tractor. Remove key
when leaving tractor unattended. 9

AVOID TIP-OVERS Use a seat belt under almost all
operating conditions. Avoid holes, ditches, and
obstructions which may cause the machine to tip,
especially on hillsides. Never drive near the
edge of a gully or steep embankment it might
cave in. Slow down for hillsides, rough ground,
and sharp turns.

KEEP RIDERS OFF MACHINE Only allow the operator
on the machine. Keep riders off.
Riders on machine are subject to injury such as
being struck by foreign objects and being thrown
off of the machine. Riders also obstruct the
operator's view resulting in the machine being
operated in an unsafe manner.
ñ
PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES Be prepared if a fire
starts. Keep a first aid kit and fire
extinguisher handy. Keep emergency numbers for
doctors, ambulance service, hospital, and fire
department near your telephone. AB6TS186
053FIREV 080785
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING Wear close fitting
clothing and safety equipment appropriate to the
job.
11
PROTECT AGAINST NOISE Prolonged exposure to loud
noise can cause impairment or loss of
hearing. Wear a suitable hearing protective
device such as earmuffs or earplugs to protect
against objectionable or uncomfort- able loud
noises.
12
HANDLE PESTICIDES AND FERTILIZERS CAREFULLY Keep
dust away from skin and hair. Keep containers low
when pouring. Let the wind blow fumes away from
you when mixing with seed or when filling
tank. Wear a filtered respirator if you cannot
avoid dust. Wear goggles to protect your
eyes. Wash exposed skin areas frequently do
not leave pesticide on your skin. Do not smoke
while handling pesticides. Properly dispose of
pesticide container, unused pesticide and
left-over treated seed and fertilizer.
Read and observe manufacturers recommendations.
Store pesticides in a separate, plainly marked
LOCKED building. Store pesticides in original
containers with labels intact.

USE SAFETY LIGHTS AND DEVICES Flashing warning
lights and turn signals are recommended when
towing this equipment on public roads unless
prohib- ited by state or local regulations. A
safety lighting kit is available from your John

items. ALights CReflector Tape Bsiow Moving

USE A SAFETY CHAIN A safety chain will help
control drawn equipment should it accidentally
separate from the drawbar. Using the appropriate
adapter parts, attach the chain to the tractor
drawbar support or other specified anchor
location. Provide only enough slack in the chain
to permit turning. See your John Deere dealer
for a chain with a strength rating equal to or
greater than the gross weight of the towed
machine. Do not use safety chain for towing.
TRANSPORT SAFELY Use proper ballast for tractor
stability and operate safely. Be sure to latch
brakes together. Shift tractor into lower gear
when transporting down steep slopes or
hills. Travel at a safe and reasonable speed.
Reduce speed when traveling over rough
ground. Keep SMV emblem and reflectors clean and
visible from the rear. When markers are used, be
aware of overhead wires and KNOW the transport
height and width of your machine.

• REDUCE SPEED WHEN TOWING LOADS
• Braking to stop towed loads from transport speeds
  can cause the towed load to swerve and upset.
  Reduce speed if towed load weighs more than the
  tractor and is not equipped with brakes.
• Follow recommended speed-weight ratio guidelines
• Maximum speed is 20 mph (32 km/h) when towing
  load equal to or less in weight than the tractor.
• Reduce speed to 10 mph (16 km/h) when towing load
  up to double the tractor weight.
• Do not tow loads exceeding double the tractor
  weight.
• Use additional caution when towing loads under
  adverse surface conditions, when turning, and on
  inclines.

PRACTICE SAFE MAINTENANCE Understand service
procedure before doing work. Keep area clean and
dry. Never lubricate or service machine while it
is moving. Keep hands, feet, and clothing from
power-driven parts. Disen- gage all power and
operate controls to relieve pressure. Lower
equipment to the ground. Stop the engine. Remove
the key. Allow machine to cool. Securely support
any machine elements that must be raised for
service work. Keep all parts in good condition
and properly installed. Fix damage immediately.
Replace worn or broken parts. Re- move any
buildup of grease, oil, or debris. Disconnect
battery ground cable (-) before making adjust-
ments on electrical systems or welding on machine.

AVOID HIGH-PRESSURE FLUIDS Escaping fluid under
pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious
injury. Relieve pressure before unhooking
hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections
before applying pressure. Keep hands and body
away from pinholes and nozzles which eject fluids
under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard to
search for leaks.
If ANY fluid is injected into the skin, it must
be surgically removed within a few hours by a
doctor familiar with this type injury or gangrene
may result.

STORE ATTACHMENTS SAFELY Stored attachments such
as dual wheels, cage wheels, and loaders can fall
and cause serious injury or death. Securely store
attachments and implements to prevent falling.
Keep playing children and bystanders away from
storage area.
AB6TS219 053ST0RE S20487
SERVICE TIRES SAFELY Explosive separation of a
tire and rim parts can cause serious injury or
death. Only attempt to mount a tire if you have
the proper equipment and experience to perform
the job. Have it done by your John Deere dealer
or a qualified tire repair service. Always
maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not
inflate the tires above the recommended
pressure. When inflating tires, use a clip-on
chuck and extension hose long enough to allow you
to stand to one side and NOT in front of or over
the tire assembly. Use a safety cage if
available. lnspect tires and wheels daily. Do not
operate with low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged
rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.
