CAUTION:

N76470-UN-30MAY07

Failure to follow safe driving procedures can result in serious injury or death to you or others. Be sure to follow the safe driving procedures.

Serious injury or death can result to you or others if machine comes in contact with overhead electrical wires when maneuvering with module builder gate open. ALWAYS watch for and avoid overhead electrical wires.

Before driving the machine adjust the following:

  • seat
  • steering column
  • rear view mirrors
  • lights for maximum visibility

ALWAYS remain seated and wear your seat belt while machine is moving. Machine is equipped with a passive operator presence system. If the operator leaves the seat for more than 5 seconds, the operator presence system immediately stops the machine and the row units. (See Operator Presence System section for details.)

Drive slowly over rough ground and when turning.

Check clearance before driving under electric wires, bridges, or through doorways.

Remove or lower radio antenna.

Plan ahead and stop slowly to prevent nose-diving.

NEVER drive machine with row units engaged, except when harvesting.
