1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY
Understand that your safety and the safety of other persons is measured by how you service and
operate this Backhoe. Know the position and operations of all controls before you or anyone else
operate the equipment.
Make sure you check all controls in all safe area before starting.
Read this manual completely and thoroughly and make sure you understand all controls. All
equipment has a limit. Make sure you are aware of the stability and load characteristics of this
Backhoe before you begin operation.
The safety information given in this manual does not replace any safety codes, insurance needs,
federal, state and local laws. Make sure your machine has the correct equipment required by your
local laws and regulations.
CAUTION
This safety alert symbol indicates important safety messages in this manual. When you see this
symbol, carefully read the message that follows and be alert to the possibility of personal injury
or death.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before starting the engine of your tractor, make sure all operation controls are in park lock or neutral
Position.
Operate controls only when seated in the operator's seat.
Equip your tractor with a ROPS cab or frame for your protection. See your tractor operator's
manual for correct Seat belt usage.
A frequent cause of personal injury or death is persons falling off and being run over. Do not permit
others to ride on your tractor. Only one person, the operator, should be on the machine when it is in
Operation.
Before leaving the tractor, stop the engine, put all controls in neutral, engage the parking brake and
remove the key from the ignition.
When using remote hydraulic tractor valves on some tractors, the Backhoe’s cylinders will
continue moving unless the control levers are manually returned to neutral, or until relief pressure
is reached at the ends of piston strokes. Observe
the bucket movement and maintain control with
the
control levers.
Stop the backhoe arms gradually when lowering or lifting loads. Stay off of slopes too steep for safe
operation. Shift down before you start up or down a hill with a heavy load. Avoid "free wheeling".
Travel speed should be such that complete control and machine
stability is maintained at all
times. Where possible, avoid
operating operation near ditches, embankments and holes. Reduce
speed when turning, crossing slopes, and on rough, slick or muddy surfaces.

Never use your hand to check for suspected leaks under pressure. Use a piece of cardboard or
wood for this purpose. Escaping hydraulic oil or diesel fuel leaking under pressure can have
sufficient force to penetrate the skin and cause infection or
other injured by leaking fluid , seek
medical attention
immediately.
To prevent personal injury , relieve all pressure before
disconnecting fluid lines.
Before applying hydraulic pressure, make sure all hydraulic connections are tight and components
are in good condition.
Contact with overhead power lines can cause severe electrical burn or death from electrocution.
Make sure there is enough clearance between raised equipment and overhead power lines.
Add recommended rear tire liquid weight or rear wheel weights for increased stability.
A backhoe attachment should be transported in a low position at slow ground speeds. Make turns
slowly and use the tractor brakes cautiously. A loaded attachment in the raised position alters the
center of gravity location of the machine and increases the possibility of mishaps.
Do not stand, walk or work under a raised backhoe or attachment unless it is securely blocked or
held in position. Accidental movement of a control lever or leak in the hydraulic system could
cause the backhoe to drop, or attachment to dump, causing severe injury.
Make sure all parked backhoes on stands are on a hard level surface with all safety devices engaged
to prevent backhoe from falling and being damaged or injuring someone.
When using a backhoe, be alert of bucket, boom and arm position at all times.
