WARNING:
The following list is not exhaustive.
Do not use the tractor beyond its ground gradient and stability limits, as indicated later in
this manual. Exceeding these limits may cause overturning or tipping of the tractor. Follow
the recommendations provided in this Manual when driving down slopes with the tractor
loaded.
• Do not use the tractor close to or on the edges of channels or streams or on banks and
borders dug by rodents. The tractor may overturn and tip.
• Do not use the tractor on unstable footbridges and fragile platforms. These structures
can collapse and cause the tractor to overturn. Systematically examine the condition
and load-bearing capacity of bridges and ramps before crossing.
• Do not use the tractor without using a seat belt system during activities that involve a
risk of tipping and overturning.
• Do not use the tractor beyond its dynamic stability limits. High speed, abrupt
manoeuvres and quick, tight turns increase the risk of overturning.
• Do not use the tractor for towing if you do not know whether the load will yield, for
example for towing logs. The tractor will be at risk of tipping backwards if the logs
cannot be towed.
• Exercise extreme caution when working with the tractor on forage silos without
concrete side walls.
• Remember that the tractor's centre of gravity may increase when loads on the front-
end loader or the three-point hitch are lifted. Under these conditions, the tractor may
overturn earlier than expected.
Procedure to follow if the tractor overturns.
If the tractor overturns, keep the safety belt
fastened, hold the steering wheel firmly and do
not attempt to leave the seat until the tractor has
come to a complete stop.

Preventing a lateral overturn
• Set the width of the guide as the most suitable width at which to perform the task.
• Lock the brake pedals together before driving at transport speed.
• Adapt the tractor speed according to visibility, weather conditions and the type of terrain for the
implement in use.
• If the tractor is fitted with a front-end loader, carry the bucket and load as low as possible.
• Make wide turns at reduced speed.
• Do not allow the tractor to bounce, as this may cause you to lose control.
• Never exceed the total permissible weight of the tractor.
• Do not brake suddenly. Apply brakes smoothly and gradually.
