19. Driving forward out of a ditch
or steep inclines can cause the
tractor to tip over backwards. To
avoid this you should back out of
these positions. Four wheel drive
tractors can give you a false
sense of security in the tractors
ability to maneuver out of these
positions, so extra caution should
be taken.
20. Never try to get on or "OFF" a
moving tractor.

21. When working in groups, always
let the others know what you are
going to do before you do it.
22. Never "freewheel" by disengaging
the clutch or shifting into neutral
while descending a slope as this
could lead to a loss of control.
23. Do not operate near ditches, holes,
embankments, or other terrain
features which may collapse under
the tractor's weight. The risk of trac-
tor upset is even higher when the
ground is loose or wet.

WHEN DRIVING THE TRACTOR
1. Depress the brake pedal firmly
when making an emergency stop.
Uneven braking at road speeds
could cause the tractor to tip over.
