 Introduction
Foreword
READ THIS MANUAL carefully to learn how to operate
and service your machine correctly. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
This manual and safety signs on your machine may also
be available in other languages. (See your John Deere
dealer to order.)
THIS MANUAL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED a permanent
part of your machine and should remain with the machine
when you sell it.
MEASUREMENTS in this manual are given in both
metric and customary U.S. unit equivalents. Use only
correct replacement parts and fasteners. Metric and inch
fasteners may require a specific metric or inch wrench.
RIGHT-HAND AND LEFT-HAND sides are determined by
facing in the direction of forward travel.
WRITE PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS (P.I.N.)
in the Specification or Identification Numbers section.
Accurately record all the numbers to help in tracing the
machine should it be stolen. Your dealer also needs these
numbers when you order parts. File the identification
numbers in a secure place off the machine.
WARRANTY is provided as part of John Deere's support
program for customers who operate and maintain their
equipment as described in this manual. The warranty is
explained on the warranty certificate or statement which

This warranty provides you the assurance that John
Deere will back its products where defects appear within
the warranty period. In some circumstances, John Deere
also provides field improvements, often without charge
to the customer, even if the product is out of warranty.
Should the equipment be abused, or modified to change
its performance beyond the original factory specifications,
the warranty will become void and field improvements
may be denied. Setting fuel delivery above specifications
or otherwise overpowering machines will result in such
action.
THE TIRE MANUFACTURER'S warranty supplied with
your machine may not apply outside the U.S.
If you are not the original owner of this machine, it is in
your interest to contact your local John Deere dealer to
inform them of this unit's serial number. This will help John
Deere notify you of any issues or product improvements.

Decommissioning — Proper Recycling and

Disposal of Fluids and Components
Safety and environmental stewardship measures must
be taken into account when decommissioning a machine
and/or component. These measures include the following:

• Use appropriate tools and personal protective
equipment such as clothing, gloves, face shields or
glasses, during the removal or handling of objects and
materials.
• Follow instructions for specialized components.
• Release stored energy by lowering suspended machine
elements, relaxing springs, disconnecting the battery
or other electrical power, and releasing pressure in
hydraulic components, accumulators, and other similar
systems.
• Minimize exposure to components which may have
residue from agricultural chemicals, such as fertilizers
and pesticides. Handle and dispose of these
components appropriately.
• Carefully drain engines, fuel tanks, radiators, hydraulic
cylinders, reservoirs, and lines before recycling
components. Use leak-proof containers when draining
fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers.
• Do not pour waste fluids onto the ground, down a drain,
or into any water source.
• Observe all national, state, and local laws, regulations,
or ordinances governing the handling or disposal of
waste fluids (example: oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid);
TS1133 —UN—15APR13
filters; batteries; and, other substances or parts.
Burning of flammable fluids or components in other than
specially designed incinerators may be prohibited by law
and could result in exposure to harmful fumes or ashes.
• Service and dispose of air conditioning systems
appropriately. Government regulations may require
a certified service center to recover and recycle air
conditioning refrigerants which could damage the
atmosphere if allowed to escape.
• Evaluate recycling options for tires, metal, plastic,
glass, rubber, and electronic components which may be
recyclable, in part or completely.
• Contact your local environmental or recycling center, or
your John Deere dealer for information on the proper
way to recycle or dispose of waste.

Handle Chemical Products Safely

Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals can cause
serious injury. Potentially hazardous chemicals used with
John Deere equipment include such items as lubricants,
coolants, paints, and adhesives.

TS1132 —UN—15APR13
A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) provides specific
details on chemical products: physical and health hazards,
safety procedures, and emergency response techniques.
Check the MSDS before you start any job using a
hazardous chemical. That way you will know exactly what
the risks are and how to do the job safely. Then follow
procedures and recommended equipment.
(See your John Deere dealer for MSDS’s on chemical
products used with John Deere equipment.)

Service Spray Equipment Safely
CAUTION: Spray solutions or vapors may be
dangerous. Treat all spray chemicals, solutions,
or solution residues with great caution. DO
NOT take chances. When in doubt, proceed
as though contamination is present.
Before performing any service activity:
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (see
Handle Agricultural Chemicals Safely in this section)
• Clean vehicle (see Clean Vehicle of Hazardous
Chemicals, Including Pesticide in this section)
• Drain Solution Tank (see Draining Solution Tank in the
