Folding Machine

causym CAUTION: Be certain everyone is clear of the machine.

Serious injury or death can result from contact with electric lines. Use care when moving or operating this machine near electric lines to avoid contact.

NOTE: Use firm, level ground when possible to make unfolding easier. Tractor must be in neutral to allow the tractor to roll slightly when unfolding.
