engine has been turned off. Hydraulic system leak down, hydraulic sys-
tem failures, mechanical failures, or movement of control levers can
cause equipment to drop or rotate unexpectedly and cause severe injury
or death. Follow Operator's Manual instructions for working underneath
and blocking requirements or have work done by a qualified dealer.

Before working underneath, read manual instructions, securely
block up, and check stability. Secure blocking prevents equipment from
dropping due to hydraulic leak down, hydraulic system failure, or
mechanical component failure.
Do not position jackstands under wheels, axles, or wheel supports. Compo-
nents can rotate and cause cutter to fall.
1.
Jackstands with a load rating of 450 kg or more are the only approved
blocking device for this cutter. Install jackstands (shown by Xs in Figure
4) under the cutter before working underneath unit.
2.
Consider the overall stability of the blocked unit. Just placing jackstands
underneath will not ensure your safety.
The working surface must be level and solid to support the weight on the
jackstands. Make sure jackstands are stable, both top and bottom. Make
sure cutter is approximately level.
3.
With full cutter weight lowered onto jackstands, test blocking stability
before working underneath.
4.
If cutter is attached to tractor when blocking, set the brakes, remove key,
and block cutter before working underneath.
5.
Securely block rear tractor wheels, in front and behind.
