secure mounting and adequate operator clearance
when properly installed. Check clearance dimen-
sions shown in figure 1 to be sure you have

hoe unless there is adequate clearance. Failure to
check and comply with these instructions may
result in serious injury or death.

5200, 5300, 5400, 5210, 5310, 5410 and 5510 trac-
tors equipped with either Woods model 1020/1027
loaders or John Deere 520 and 540 loaders. Any
other use or modification of this mounting kit may
result in serious injury or death.
n Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-
ment manuals are available from dealer or, in the
United States and Canada, call 1-800-319-6637.)
Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can
result in serious injury or death.
n Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
n Before working on backhoe, extend boom and
dipperstick and place bucket on ground. Make sure
that all system pressure has been relieved by oper-
ating controls before performing maintenance or
service or before disconnecting any hydraulic
lines.
n A minimum 25% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, tractor could tip over, causing personal
injury or death. The weight may be attained with a
loader, front wheel weights, ballast in tires, or front
tractor weights. Weigh the tractor and equipment.
Do not estimate.
n Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and
valves are in good condition and not leaking before
starting power unit or using equipment. Check and
route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses
must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed,
pinched, or come into contact with any moving
parts. Operate moveable components through full
operational range to check clearances. Replace
any damaged hoses immediately.
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operators single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, concern,
judgement, and proper training of personnel
involved in the operation, transport, maintenance
and storage of equipment.
It has been said The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator. We ask you to be that
kind of operator.
