Safety
General Safety
Always follow all safety instructions to avoid serious injury or death. Using this product for purposes other than its intended use could prove dangerous to you and bystanders.
-
Do not exceed the rated operating capacity, as the machine may become unstable, which may result in loss of control.
-
Do not carry a load with the arms raised; always carry loads close to the ground.
-
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operating the machine on any slope or uneven terrain requires extra caution.
-
Operate the machine up and down slopes with the heavy end of the machine uphill and the load close to the ground. Weight distribution changes with attachments. An empty bucket makes the rear of the machine the heavy end, and a full bucket makes the front of the machine the heavy end. Most other attachments make the front of the machine the heavy end.
-
Have the property or work area marked for buried lines and other objects, and do not dig in marked areas.
-
Read and understand the content of this Operator’s Manual before starting the machine.
-
Use your full attention while operating the machine. Do not engage in any activity that causes distractions; otherwise, injury or property damage may occur.
-
Never allow children or untrained people to operate the machine.
-
Keep your hands and feet away from the moving components and attachments.
-
Do not operate the machine without the guards and other safety protective devices in place and working on the machine.
-
Keep bystanders and children out of the operating area.
-
Stop the machine, shut off the machine, and remove the key before servicing or unclogging the machine.
Improperly using or maintaining this machine can result in injury.
To reduce the potential for injury, comply with these safety instructions
and always pay attention to the safety-alert symbol 
, which means Caution, Warning,
or Danger—personal safety instruction. Failure to comply with
these instructions may result in personal injury or death.
Slope Safety
-
Operate the machine up and down slopes with the heavy end of the machine uphill. Weight distribution changes with attachments. This attachment makes the front of machine the heavy end.
-
Raising the loader arms on a slope affects the stability of the machine. Keep the loader arms in the lowered position when on slopes.
-
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operating the machine on any slope or uneven terrain requires extra caution.
-
Establish your own procedures and rules for operating on slopes. These procedures must include surveying the site to determine which slopes are safe for machine operation. Always use common sense and good judgment when performing this survey.
-
Slow down and use extra care on hillsides. Ground conditions can affect the stability of the machine.
-
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the machine loses traction, proceed slowly, straight down the slope.
-
Avoid turning on slopes. If you must turn, turn slowly and keep the heavy end of the machine uphill.
-
Keep all movements on slopes slow and gradual. Do not make sudden changes in speed or direction.
-
If you feel uneasy operating the machine on a slope, do not do it.
-
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps, as uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
-
Use caution when operating on wet surfaces. Reduced traction could cause sliding.
-
Evaluate the area to ensure that the ground is stable enough to support the machine.
-
Use caution when operating the machine near the following:
-
Drop-offs
-
Ditches
-
Embankments
-
Bodies of water
The machine could suddenly roll over if a track goes over the edge or the edge caves in. Maintain a safe distance between the machine and any hazard.
-
-
Do not remove or add attachments on a slope.
-
Do not park the machine on a hillside or slope.
Floor Scraper Safety
-
Wear cut-resistant gloves and use caution when installing, removing, or servicing the scraper blade.
-
Keep fingers and body parts away from the sharp edges of the scraper blade.
-
Remove the scraper blade before moving or changing the blade-holder assembly.
Maintenance and Storage Safety
-
Check fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness to ensure that the equipment is in safe operating condition.
-
Refer to this Operator’s Manual for important details if you store the attachment for an extended period of time.
-
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.

Removing Flooring
-
Fully tilt the attachment rearward and lower the loader arms. Use this as the starting angle for scraping the floor.
Note: Using a scraper angle greater than 30 degrees can cause premature wear on the blade and reduce visibility of the area being scraped.
-
Drive the traction unit forward to remove flooring.
-
As the blade edge wears, tilt the scraper attachment in small increments as needed.
Note: If the blade edge becomes dull, manually rotate the blade-holder assembly 180 degrees to use a new edge. Use the starting angle described in step 1 after rotating the blade-holder assembly.
Transport Position
When transporting the attachment, keep it as close to the ground as possible, no more than 15 cm (6 inches) above the ground. Tilt it rearward.
Storage
-
Before long term storage, wash the attachment with mild detergent and water to remove dirt and grime.
-
Check the condition of the cutting edge. Remove and rotate the blade 180 degrees so the worn edge is on top, if it is badly worn.
-
Check and tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws. Repair or replace any part that is damaged or worn.
-
Paint all scratched or bare metal surfaces.
Note: Paint is available from your Authorized Service Dealer.
-
Store the attachment in a clean, dry garage or storage area. Cover it to protect it and keep it clean.
