Avoid Static Refueling

Electricity Risk When

RG21992-UN: Static Discharge (Fuel Nozzle)

The removal of sulfur and other compounds in Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel decreases its conductivity and increases its ability to store a static charge.

Refineries may have treated the fuel with a static dissipating additive. However, there are many factors that can reduce the effectiveness of the additive over time.

Static charges can build up in ULSD fuel while it is flowing through fuel delivery systems. Static electricity discharge when combustiblevaporsarepresentcouldresultinafireorexplosion.

Therefore, it is important to ensure that the entire system used to refuel your machine (fuel supply tank, transfer pump, transfer hose, nozzle, and others) is properly grounded and bonded.

Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause serious injury.

Potentially hazardous chemicals used with John Deere equipment include such items as lubricants, coolants, paints, and adhesives.

A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific details on chemical products: physical and health hazards, safety procedures, and emergency response techniques.

Check the MSDS before you start any job using a hazardous chemical. That way you will know exactly what the risks are and how to do the job safely. Then follow procedures and recommended equipment.

(See your John Deere dealer for MSDS’s on chemical products used with John Deere equipment.)

Starting fluid is highly flammable.

Keep all sparks and flame away when using it. Keep starting fluid away from batteries and cables.

To prevent accidental discharge when storing the pressurized can, keep the cap on the container, and store in a cool, protected location.

Do not incinerate or puncture a starting fluid container.

Do not use starting fluid on an engine equipped with glow plugs or an air intake heater.

Decommissioning—Proper Recycling and Disposal of Fluids and Components

Minimize exposure to components which may have residue from agricultural chemicals, such as fertilizers and pesticides. Handle and dispose of these components appropriately.

Carefully drain engines, fuel tanks, radiators, hydraulic cylinders, reservoirs, and lines before recycling components. Use leak-proof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers.

Do not pour waste fluids onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source.

Observe all national, state, and local laws, regulations, or ordinances governing the handling or disposal of waste fluids (example: oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid); filters; batteries; and, other substances or parts. Burning of flammable fluids or components inotherthanspeciallydesignedincineratorsmaybe prohibited by law and could result in exposure to harmful fumes or ashes.

Service and dispose of air conditioning systems appropriately. Government regulations may require a certified service center to recover and recycle air conditioning refrigerants which could damage the atmosphere if allowed to escape.

Evaluate recycling options for tires, metal, plastic, glass, rubber, and electronic components which may be recyclable, in part or completely.

Contact your local environmental or recycling center, or your John Deere dealer for information on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste.

TS1133-UN: Recycle Waste

Safety and environmental stewardship measures must be taken into account when decommissioning a machine and/or component. These measures include the following:

Use appropriate tools and personal protective equipment such as clothing, gloves, face shields or glasses, during the removal or handling of objects and materials.

Follow instructions for specialized components.

Release stored energy by lowering suspended machine elements, relaxing springs, disconnecting the battery or other electrical power, and releasing pressure in hydraulic components, accumulators, and other similar systems.

Be careful not to accidentally actuate controls when coworkers are present.

NOTE: Transmission control lever (TCL) needs to be in neutral for park brake to be released. The TCL does not need to be in neutral for park brake to be applied.

Lower all equipment to the ground during work interruptions.

Place transmission control lever in neutral, press park brake switch (1)to engage parkbrake, andstop engine before allowing anyone to approach the machine.

Follow these same precautions before standing up, leaving the operator′s seat, or exiting the machine.

Avoid Work Site Hazards

TX1054280-UN: Operate Only on Solid Footing

TX1054279-UN: Contact With Gas Line

Avoid contact with gas lines, buried cables and water lines.

Call utility line location services to identify all underground utilities before starting work.

Prepare work site properly. Avoid operating near structures or objects that could fall onto the machine. Clear away debris that could move unexpectedly if run over.

Avoid boom or attachment contact with overhead obstacles or overhead electrical lines. Never move machine closer than 3 m (10 ft) plus twice the line insulator length to overhead wires.

Keep bystanders clear at all times.

Keepbystandersawayfrom raised booms, attachments, and unsupported loads. Avoid swinging or raising booms, attachments, or loads over or near

Avoid Backover Accidents

PC10857XW-UN: Avoid Backover Accidents

Before moving machine, be sure that all persons are clear of machine path. Turn around and look directly for best visibility.

Use mirrors to assist in checking all around machine. Keep windows and mirrors clean, adjusted, and in good repair.

Be certain reverse warning alarm is working properly.

Use a signal person when backing if view is obstructed or when in close quarters. Keep signal person in view at all times.

Use prearranged hand signals to communicate.

Do not rely on the rear camera and radar object detection systems, if equipped, to determine if personnel are behind the machine. The system has limitations due to maintenance practices, environmental conditions, and operating range.

Avoid Machine Tip-Over

TX1054283-UN: Ensure Solid Footing

Use seat belt at all times.

Do not jump if the machine tips.

You will be unlikely to jump clear and the machine may crush you.

T133716-19: Use Seat Belt

Load and unload from trucks or trailers carefully.

Be sure truck is wide enough and on a firm level surface. Use loading ramps and attach them properly to truck bed.

Be careful on slopes.

Drive directly up or down steep slopes whenever possible. Minimize articulation for best machine stability when driving and turning across slopes. Use extra care on wet, soft or frozen surfaces because machine may slide more easily with these conditions.

Ensure solid footing.

Do not operate close to banks or open excavations that may cave in and cause machine to tip or fall.
