SAFETY
GENERAL
SAFETY
l11e following safety recommendations are not intended to
address
every possible safety aspect
of
operating this vehicle,
but
rather serve
as
a guide. Eagle has taken extensive measures to make sure the ALL vehicles are designed
and
tested
to be safe when they leave the factory. Modifications made to the vehicle after it leaves the factory can cause the vehicle
to be tmsafe. In any situation,
common
sense
and
caution
should
always be applied
and
is ultimately the owner/
operator's
responsibility.
THIS TRACTOR
IS
A DESIGNED TO
BE
A DEDICATED "WORKING" VEHICLE. IT
IS
NOT DESIGNED FOR OR IN-
TENDED
TO
BE
USED FOR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, RACING OR GENERAL "HORSE PLAY ACTIVITIES".
USE FOR
ANY OF THESE INAPPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES COULD RESULT
IN
INJURY, DEATH OR DAMAGE TO
THE TRACTOR
AND
SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
! WARNING: FAILURE
TO
COMPLY WITH
THE
FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CAN RESULT IN SERI-
OUS
INJURY
OR
DEATH AS
WELL
AS EQUIPMENT DAMAGE!
Follow all company, facility
and
OSHA Safety Rules.
If
you
don't
have a copy of these, request a copy from
your
facility management
and
review them carefully.
Review carefully
and
understand
the "Operating Procedures" section
of
this manual before endeavoring to start
or
operate this h·actor.
Be
sure that the tractor is
equipped
with
fully ftmctional safety
equipment
required
in
the areas it will be oper-
ated.
Such items as rotating beacons, back-up alarms, etc. are available from EAGLE's Factory
or
your

DO
NOT
START
OR
RUN
THE
ENGINE
IN
A CLOSED OR POORLY VENTILATED BUILDING
WHERE THE
EXHAUST GASES CAN ACCUMULATE.
AVOID
BREATHING THESE GASES AS THEY MAY
CONTAIN

HALED STEADILY
FOR EVEN A FEW MINUTES!
Always
do
the "PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION" before using the tractor (See "CHECKLIST" following this sec-
tion of the manual).

Be
sure
the
seat
belt is fitted snugly
around
the hips,
not
around
the waist as fail-
ure

cause injury in the event of a collision.
If
your
tractor is

sure
that the passenger does
not
dis-
tract
you
from the safe operation of the tractor.

in
conges
ted
areas.
Be
alert
near
blind corners
and
always anticipate
other
equipment
and
personnel movements. SOlmd the
horn
when
approaching corners.
Use particular care
to
operate the vehicle
at
a safe speed,
commensurate
with
conditions. Speed
should
always
be reduced when entering a
turn
to assure complete control
of
the vehicle
and
any
towed loads. Take all corners
wide, especially
if
towing trailers.
Speed
should
always be
ad
ju
sted
to allow for a safe
and
controlled stop, considering the space available for
stopping
and
the
weight
of the load being moved. Avoid
sudden
stops.
Reduce speed
when
approaching speed
bumps.
Do
not
tamper with the engine
speed
governor.
Never drive crossways
on
a slope.
Avoid operating
on
bumpy, soft surfaces. Avoid potholes
when
present.
Keep clear of the
edge
of loading docks.
LOAD
TOWING
SAFETY
If
towing a load, check to see that:
The
towed load is securely cotmected to the hitch
of
the tractor.
Be
sure
hitch is locked/fastened into the closed
position.
The tow
ed
cargo load is secure
and
within the exterior frame
of
the vehicle that is carrying the lo
ad
.
For maximum tractor
and
load control
and
stability,
as
well
as
to
wing
power, be sure the tongue of the trailer is
parallel
to
the
ground
when
cmmected to the tractor's hitch.
Watch the trailer's rear
swing
dears
any
obstructions
when
cornering.
9
LOAD
PU
SH
ING
SAFETY
If
pushing a load:
Be
sure the tractor
is
designed for and intended to be used to push the load.
If
using the tractor for "pushback" of
an
aircraft, be sure the tow bar
is
securely fastened to both the aircraft and
the tractor
and
the traCtor hitch is in the locked position.
If
using the tractor for "pushback"
of
an

SERVICING
SAFETY
Always stop the tractor,
turn
the
eng
ine off,
put
in "Park"
and
apply
the parking brake when making any adjust-
ment
s
or
servicing the unit.
Never refuel the tractor when the engine is running.
DO NOT SMOKE WHEN REFUELING.
Do not over
fill
the fuel tank. Do
not
fill
beyond bottom
of
fuel filler screen. Clean off any spilled fuel immedi-
ately.
Keep fuel stored well away from
open
flames, possible sparks
or
sources of excessively high temperatures.
Do not ever rem.ove the radiator cap when the engine is hot, as serious burns may result. Always check coolant
level and
add
cool
ant
at
the overflow reservoir.
Avoid touching a
hot
engine, exhaust, coolant pipes
or
hydraulic com
pon
ents as
ser
i
ous
burns
may
occur.
This tractor comes factory
equipped
with a sealed "maintenance free" battery. Do
not
endeavor to service the
battery.
When connecting
or
disconnecting battery
ca
bl
es, always first remove the cable
on
the negative terminal(-) and
when
reconnecting, repla
ce
it last. This will prevent sparks from accidental gratmding.
PREVENT
BATTERY
EXPLOSIONS. Do
not
smoke
near
the battery. Fumes from batteries are explosive. Keep
away
from all sparks,
open
flames etc
...
Remove bracelets; watch bands etc. prior to installing, removing
or
se
r-
vicing a battery. Do
not
short
the battery terminals.
AVOID ACID BURNS. The battery acid is poisonous
and
is strong
enough
to
burn
skin, eat holes in clothing
and
cause blindness
if
splashed in the eyes.
If
battery acid is spilled
or
splashed, always immediately
wash
your
skin
and
clothing. Apply lime
or
baking soda to help neutralize the acid. Seek medical assistance.

foot brake is
power
assisted
and
s
hould
be applied with a
stead
y

Speed
should
always be adjusted to allow for a safe
and
controlled stop. Adjust your speed based
on
the surface condi-
tions, the space available for stopping
and
th
e weight of the load being moved. A VOID SUDDEN
STOPS!
