burned.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
•Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact
with skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety
glasses to shield your eyes and rubber

•Inspect the tractor for any loose electrical
connections and secure them as required. Check
the wire routing to make sure moving parts do
not interfere with wires and cause a short.
