Functional test of the safety belts
WARNING: Always securely fasten your safety
belt. Your tractor is equipped with a ROPS cab
or frame for your protection. The seat belt
can help insure your safety if it is used and
maintained. Never wear a seat belt loosely or
with slack in the belt system. Never wear the
belt in a twisted condition or pinched between
the seat structural members.
- Keep sharp edges and items that can cause damage,
away from the belt.
- From time to time, check belt, buckles and mounting
bolts for damage.
- Replace all parts that are worn or damaged.
- Replace a belt that has cuts that can weaken the belt.
- Check that the bolts are tight on the seat bracket.
- Keep seat belt clean and dry.
- Clean belt only with a soap solution and warm water.
- Do not use bleach or dye on the belt because this can
make the belt weak.
