SAFETY your tractor is heavy enough to counterbalance the weight of the Baler and a full-sized bale. NEVER tow a Baler on a public highway ata speed greater than 20 mph (32 kmh). Unless otherwise prohibited, use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem. BE SURE that the Telescoping PTO Drive rotates freely inside the Drive Shield Tubes at all times. Balers are provided with two different types of Telescoping Drives; one Drive has Metal Shield Tubes and the other has Plastic Shield Tubes. The Drive with Plastic Shield Tubes MUST be anchored to a hole in a part of the Baler Frame with the Tie-down Chain provided. The Drive with Metal Shield Tubes MUST NOT be anchored. Bales made with the Round Baler are LARGE, CYLINDRI­ CAL and HEAVY. Serious personal injury or property damage could result if the Bales are NOT carefully and properly handled. NEVER eject or store Bales where they could possibly roll downhill.

Our Company does NOT sell replacement tires. In addition, tire mounting, service or inflation can be dangerous. When­ ever possible, trained personnel should be called to service and/or mount tires, following the tire manufacturer's in­ struction. If you do NOT have such instructions, contact your tire dealer or our Company. In any event, to avoid possible fatal or serious injury, follow the specific directive given in the Service chapter of this manual. NEVER use your hands to search for hydraulic fluid leaks, use a piece of paper or cardboard. Escaping fluid under pressure can be invisible and can penetrate the skin and cause a serious injury! If any fluid is injected into your skin, see a doctor at once! Injected fluid MUST be surgically removed by a doctor familiar with this type of injury or gangrene may result. . BE SURE to review and comply with ALL Safety recom­ mendations set forth in the tractor operator's manual.
