Seat Belt Inspection and Maintenance
Keep the Operator and Instructional Seat Belts in
good condition by doing the following:
1. Keep sharp edges and items that can cause
damage, away from the belts.
2. From time to time, check belts, buckles,
retractors, tethers, slack take-up system and
mounting bolts for damage.
3. Replace all parts that have damage or wear.
4. Replace belts that have cuts that can make the
belt weak.
5. Check that bolts are tight on the seat bracket or
mounting.
6. If belt is attached to seat, make sure seat or seat
brackets are mounted securely.
7. Keep seat belts clean and dry.
8. Clean belts only with a soap solution and warm
water.
9. DO NOT use bleach or dye on the belts, because
this can make the belts weak.
WARNING: Before starting the engine make sure seat belts are securely fastened. The seat belt can help
insure your safety if it is used and properly 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.
