SAFETY
YOU are responsible for the SAFE operation and mainte-
nance of your Tile Plow. You must ensure that you and any-
one else who is going to operate, maintain or work around
the machine are familiar with the operating and maintenance
procedures and related safety information contained in this
manual. This manual will alert you to all good safety prac-
tices that should be adhered to while operating the machine.
Remember, YOU are the key to safety. Good safety prac-
tices not only protect you but also the people around you.
Make these practices a working part of your safety program.
Be certain that EVERYONE operating this equipment is
familiar with the recommended operating and maintenance
procedures and follows all the safety precautions. Most
accidents can be prevented. Do not risk injury or death by
ignoring good safety practices.
• Owners must give operating instructions to opera-
tors or employees before allowing them to operate
the equipment, and annually thereafter per OSHA
(Occupational Safety and Health Administration)
regulation 1928.57.
• The most important safety device on this equipment
is a safe operator. It is the operator’s responsibility
to read and understand ALL Safety and Operating
instructions in the manual and to follow them.
• A person who has not read and understood all
operating and safety instructions is not qualified
to operate the equipment. An untrained operator
exposes himself and bystanders to possible seri-
ous injury or death.
• Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthor-
ized modification may impair the function and/or
safety and could affect the life of the equipment.
