SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Careful operation is your best insurance against an accident. Read this section carefully before operating the vehicle

and accessory. This accessory is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe the

following safety instructions could result in serious injury. All operators, no matter how experienced they may be,

should read this and other manuals related to the vehicle and accessory before operating. It is the owner's legal

obligation to instruct all operators in safe operation of the accessory to prevent accidents or injuries.

These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the product described in this manual.

GLOSSARY:

In this manual, right and left sides are determined by

sitting on the seat of the vehicle facing forward.

In this manual, "accessories" means attachments

(snowblower, rotary broom, blade, etc.) that you install

on the vehicle (lawn tractors, A.T.V. s etc).

TRAINING: This symbol, "Safety Alert Symbol", is used

throughout this manual and on the

accessory’s safety labels to warn of the

possibility of serious injury. Please take

special care in reading and understanding

the safety precautions before operating the

vehicle and accessory.

1. Read this owner's manual carefully. Be thoroughly

familiar with the controls and proper use of the

vehicle and accessory. Know how to stop the unit

and disengage the controls quickly.

2. Never allow children to operate the vehicle nor the

accessory. Never allow adults to operate the vehicle

nor the accessory without proper instructions. Local

regulations restrict the age of the operator. Children

are often attracted to accessories. Never assume

children will stay in place where you have last seen

them. Keep children under surveillance of a

responsible adult at all times.

3. No one should operate the vehicle nor the

accessory while intoxicated or while taking

medication that impairs the senses or reactions. The

operator should, if taking over the counter drugs,

seek medical advice on whether he/she can safely

operate the equipment.

4. Keep the area of operation clear of all people,

particularly small children and pets.

5. Never start or operate the accessories except from

the operator’s station on the power unit except if

this is impossible.

PREPARATION:

1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the accessory

is to be used and remove door mats, all foreign

objects and the like which could be pick up and

projected by accessory.

2. For motorized accessories, disengage all clutches

and shift into neutral before starting engine.

3. Prepare for emergencies. Be prepared if a fire

starts. Keep first aid kit and fire extinguisher

handy. Keep emergency phone numbers (doctor,

ambulance, ect) near a phone

4. Do not operate the accessory without wearing

adequate clothing and safety equipment. Long hair,

loose clothing or jewelry can get caught in moving

parts. Wear footwear that will improve footing on

slippery surfaces.

5. Handle fuel with care, it is highly flammable and

vapors are explosive.

a) Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other

sources of ignition.

b) Use approved fuel container.

c) Never add fuel to a running engine or hot engine.

d) Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill

fuel tank indoors.

e) Never fill containers inside a vehicle, or on a

truck or a trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always

place containers on the ground, away from your

vehicle, before filling.

f) When practical, remove gas-powered

equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it

on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel

such equipment on a trailer with a portable

container, rather than directly from a gasoline

dispenser nozzle.

g) Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the

fuel tank or container opening at all times, until

refueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-

open device.

h) Never overfill fuel tank. Replace fuel cap

securely and wipe up spilled fuel.

i) If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing

immediately.

6. Never attempt to make any adjustments while the

engine (motor) is running (except when specifically

recommended by manufacturer).

7. Let the vehicle and accessory adjust to outdoor

temperatures before using.

8. Never use an accessory without proper guards,

plates, or other safety protective devices in place

9. Always make sure to wear the appropriate safety

equipment required (glasses, muffs, mask…) for

each type of product. See operation section.

10. Always make sure of having safe traction on the

vehicle by using the recommended accessories

(chains, A.T.V. tracks, counterweights…). See

operation section.

11. Always make sure all components are correctly

installed. (driveline securely attached and locked at

both ends, belts properly installed…)

12. If applicable, always handle the winch cable with

thick leather gloves.

13. Never modify the accessory or any part without

the written consent from the manufacturer.

OPERATION:

1. Do not put hands or feet near, under or inside rotating

parts.

2. Exercise extreme caution when operating on or

crossing gravel drives, walks or roads. Stay alert for

hidden hazards or traffic. Do not carry passengers.

3. After striking a foreign object, stop the engine (motor),

disconnect the wire from the spark plug(s) and keep

wire away to prevent accidental starting. Thoroughly

inspect the accessory for any damage and repair

damage before restarting and using the accessory.

4. If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the

engine (motor) and check immediately for the

cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

Don not use equipment until properly repaired.

5. Take all possible precautions when leaving the

vehicle unattended. Disengage the power take-off,

lower the attachment, place the transmission into

neutral, set the parking brake, stop the engine and

remove the ignition key.

6. Do not run the engine indoors, except when starting

the engine and for transporting in or out of the

building. Do not operate or let motor run in a storage

area without ventilation because gas contains

carbon monoxide which is odorless, colorless and

can cause death.

7. Never use the accessories across the face of

slopes, go from top to bottom. Exercise extreme

caution when using equipment on slopes, on wet

ground or near drop-off. Do not attempt to use

accessory on a steep slope.

8. Never tolerate bystanders in the working zone.

Never use an accessory in the direction of

bystanders, it might throw gravel or debris that can

hurt people or damage property.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

1. When cleaning, repairing or inspecting the vehicle

and accessory: park on a solid level ground,

disengage drives, lower implement, set parking

2. Check all the bolts and components at frequent

intervals to make sure that they are properly

tightened and in safe working condition.

applicable) every day. Clean it or replace it as

necessary. Change the oil more often when working

in dusty conditions. See the vehicle’s and

accessory's owner’s manual.

or over the tire assembly. Use a safety cage if

available
