In Case of Fire

Stop baling immediately at the first sign of trouble. This may be a scorched smell, an unusual sound, or the sight of smoke or flame.

Do not risk personal injury. If a fire is too far advanced, do not try to extinguish it.

If you can safely extinguish the fire, proceed carefully and follow these guidelines:

• Position the tractor upwind from the baler to avoid the fire from overtaking the tractor.
• Open the baler gate to eject any crop material from the bale chamber, and drive away from this material.
• Use a fire extinguisher or other source to spray water at the base of the flame, and to cool adjacent parts. Do not position yourself under an open baler gate. It may fall if baler is on fire.
