Handle Fluids Safely—Avoid Fires

Avoid Fires When you work around fuel, do not smoke or work near heaters or other fire hazards.

Store flammable fluids away from fire hazards. Do not incinerate or puncture pressurized containers.

Make sure machine is clean of trash, grease, and debris.

Do not store oily rags; they can ignite and burn spontaneously.

Prepare for Emergencies

First Aid Kit 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.

Fire Prevention

<- Go to Section TOC

Section 10 page 3

TM1735-REPAIR TECHNICAL MANUAL

Section 10 - GENERAL

Group 05: Safety

Fire Prevention To reduce the risk of fire, follow these guidelines, especially in dry crop conditions: Equip the baler with a water-type fire extinguisher. Large capacity water fire extinguishers are recommended because application of water can cool hot parts to prevent a fire. (See Attachments section in the Operator′s Manual.)

Keep foreign material (crop, chaff, twine, net wrap material, etc.) from building up on the machine near potentially hot areas, such as bearings on ends of baler rolls and slip clutch. Remove this buildup as part of the regular service operations.

Avoid high pressure power-washing adjacent to the bearings on ends of baler rolls to prevent damaging seals.

Check bearings on ends of baler rolls regularly for early signs of failure replace as necessary. (See Lubrication and Maintenance section in the Operator′s manual.)

If noticeable changes in machine performance occur which might indicate a part is beginning to fail, stop baling immediately and investigate the cause of any sounds, smells, or sights which are unusual.

Promptly eject bales after they have been tied or wrapped. Do not use the baler to transport bales from the field. Do not bring a baler, with a bale inside it, into a building. Never leave a baler unattended with a bale inside the chamber.

Use extreme care if it is necessary to park a baler in a field of dry crop or stubble. Whenever possible, park baler on bare ground or in an area surrounded by bare ground. Before leaving a baler which has been operating, verify there are no areas which are hot enough to start a fire. Do not leave the baler unattended near bales which have been baled wet, because spontaneous combustion can occur.

If service operations require using a welder, cutting torch or grinder on the baler, refer to FIRE PREVENTION—WELDING in this group for guidelines which may prove useful in preventing a fire.

Use extreme care when smoking around the baler.

Fire Prevention—Welding If service operations require using a welder, cutting torch or grinder on the baler, these guidelines may prove useful in preventing a fire: [1] - Park baler on pavement or bare ground.

[2] - Remove chaff to minimize exposure of flammable material to sparks; if chaff cannot be removed, soak it thoroughly with water before starting. Protect hoses and belts from exposure to sparks, arcs or flames.

[3] - Be sure a fully charged water-type fire extinguisher or other source of water is ready for immediate use.

[4] - Use an assistant to watch for fire while welding, cutting or grinding.

[5] - After welding, cutting or grinding is finished, wait long enough to allow parts to cool down before starting to bale. Verify that no sparks or slag have started a fire before leaving service area.

Avoid High-Pressure Fluids

<- Go to Section TOC

Section 10 page 4

TM1735-REPAIR TECHNICAL MANUAL

Section 10 - GENERAL

Group 05: Safety

High Pressure Inspect hydraulic hoses periodically – at least once per year – for leakage, kinking, cuts, cracks, abrasion, blisters, corrosion, exposed wire braid or any other signs of wear or damage.

Replace worn or damaged hose assemblies immediately with John Deere approved replacement parts.

Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury.

Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections before applying pressure.

Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect hands and body from high-pressure fluids.

If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene may result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of injury should reference a knowledgeable medical source. Such information is available in English from Deere & Company Medical Department in Moline, Illinois, U.S.A., by calling 1-800-822-8262 or +1 309-748-5636.

Support Machine Properly

Support Properly Always lower the attachment or implement to the ground before you work on the machine. If the work requires that the machine or attachment be lifted, provide secure support for them. If left in a raised position, hydraulically supported devices can settle or leak down.

Do not support the machine on cinder blocks, hollow tiles, or props that may crumble under continuous load. Do not work under a machine that is supported solely by a jack. Follow recommended procedures in this manual.

When implements or attachments are used with a machine, always follow safety precautions listed in the implement or attachment operator′s manual.

Service Machine Safely

Safety Art To help prevent personal injury caused by unexpected movement, be sure to service the machine on a level surface.

If machine is connected to a tractor, engage tractor parking brake and/or place transmission in "Park", shut off engine and remove key.

If machine is detached from tractor, block wheels to prevent movement.

While working inside or around the baler with an open gate, the gate lock lever (A) must be moved to locked position. Use this safety feature anytime the gate is open. Close the gate anytime the baler must be left unattended.

Before servicing or adjusting baler: 1.Disengage all power.

2.Shut off tractor engine.

3.Wait until all moving parts have stopped.

4.Let all components cool.

LEGEND: AGate Lock Lever BInterlock Lever

458, 458S and 558 When positioning the gate to provide access for service, always be sure tension arm is fully raised, and against its stops. This is to prevent the gate from rotating downward unexpectedly while service work is being performed. ALWAYS raise the gate fully and lower it to the desired opening height before engaging the gate lock. Crop material can hold the tension arm at a lower position, and if this material is disturbed during service, the tension arm can swing up, and the gate can swing suddenly downward, even if the gate lock is engaged. Verifying that tension arm is positioned against its stops will avoid this situation.

Failure to do this may result in serious injury or death.

When locking the gate in any position: 1.Raise gate fully. <- Go to Section TOC

Section 10 page 8

TM1735-REPAIR TECHNICAL MANUAL

Section 10 - GENERAL

Group 05: Safety

2.Lower gate to desired height.

3.Rotate interlock lever (B) and move gate lock lever (A) to locked position (shown).

4.Verify that tension arm is fully raised and against its stops.

If gate lock lever can be moved to locked position with gate fully closed, interlock lever is not adjusted properly. (See Checking Gate Lock Valve Interlock Lever Adjustment in Operating the Baler section of machine Operator′s manual.)

IMPORTANT: Before operating baler, make sure gate lock lever is in the UNLOCKED position. Operating baler with gate lock engaged will damage baler.

Disconnect power supply to electronic controls when servicing electrical systems or when welding on baler. Over-voltage can damage the electronic controls.

Tie long hair behind your head. Do not wear a necktie, scarf, loose clothing, or necklace when you work near machine tools or moving parts. If these items were to get caught, severe injury could result.

Moving Parts Remove rings and other jewelry to prevent electrical shorts and entanglement in moving parts.

Service Baler Use an open-end wrench to turn hex gear case output shaft to aid in servicing.

Never use any type of tool or wrench on shaft while tractor engine is running. Always remove tool from shaft whenever you are finished using it.

Check PTO hookup tubular shield to ensure it is free to turn. Make necessary repairs if shield will not turn.
