The following is a list of safe operation procedures that you should practice at all times:

2. Dress for the job. Any loose clothing, jewelry (especially rings), belts, or scarves will present a definite safety hazard.

3. When either stopping or starting the machine, make sure the area is clear of personnel.

4. Before leaving the machine unattended, lower all implements to the lowest position.

5. DO NOT allow riders or any passenger on the machine when it is in operation.

6. Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher on or near the operator's station. It must be easily accessible when needed. Know how to operate it.

7. Keep a fully stocked first aid kit on the operator' s station. Know basic first aid.

8. Keep the operation area free of all loose objects such as tools, lunch kits, soft drink cans, etc.

9. Never allow an open flame within 3 meters (10 feet) of the harvester.

10. Be sure that all shields, guards, and safety equipment are in their proper place and in good condition.

12. Use steps and grab handles when mounting or dismounting the harvester. Clean all mud or debris from steps, walk-ways, and work areas. Always face the equipment when using its steps or ladder.

13. Maintain your equipment as if your life depends on it-It does! Improper lubrication and maintenance can be dangerous and could result in injury or death.

14. Before mounting the machine, ensure that no one else is working under or on machine.

15. Ensure that all operators are taught to blow the horn several times and wait a few seconds before starting the machine.

16. Ensure that all persons anywhere near the machine know that when the horn blows, the machine is about to be started and to move away as soon possible.
