SAFETY INFORMATION

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Improper installation and operation could cause

personal injury and/or equipment and property

damage. Read and understand labels and the

Owner's Manual before installing, operating or making

adjustments.

WARNING

• Driver to keep bystanders minimum of

25 feet away from operating spreader.

• Before working with the spreader, secure all

loose-ﬁtting clothing and unrestrained hair.

• Before operating the spreader, verify all

safety guards are in place.

• Before servicing the spreader, wait for

auger and spinner to stop.

• Do not climb into or ride on spreader.

WARNING

Overloading could result in an

accident or damage. Do not exceed

GVWR or GAWR ratings as found on

the driver-side door cornerpost of

the vehicle. See Loading Section to determine

maximum volumes of spreading material.

CAUTION

If rear directional, CHMSL light or brake

stoplights are obstructed by the spreader,

FIRE AND EXPLOSION

Be careful when using gasoline. Do not use gasoline

to clean parts. Store only in approved containers away

from sources of heat or ﬂame.

CELL PHONES

A driver's ﬁrst responsibility is the safe operation of

the vehicle. The most important thing you can do

to prevent a crash is to avoid distractions and pay

attention to the road. Wait until it is safe to operate

Mobile Communication Equipment such as cell phones,

text messaging devices, pagers or two-way radios.

CAUTION

Batteries normally produce explosive gases

which can cause personal injury. Therefore,

do not allow ﬂames, sparks or lit tobacco

to come near the battery. When charging or

working near a battery, always cover your

face and protect your eyes, and also provide

ventilation.

• Batteries contain sulfuric acid which burns

skin, eyes and clothing.

• Disconnect the battery before removing or

replacing any electrical components.

WARNING

Vehicle exhaust contains lethal fumes.

Breathing these fumes, even in low

concentrations, can cause death. Never

operate a vehicle in an enclosed area without

venting exhaust to the outside.

WARNING

Gasoline is highly ﬂammable and gasoline

vapor is explosive. Never smoke while

working on vehicle. Keep all open ﬂames

away from gasoline tank and lines. Wipe up

any spilled gasoline immediately.
