1.General safety and accident prevention
regulations!
2.When driving on a public road, observe local
regulations!
3.Before starting work, familiarise yourself with
all operating controls and their functions! Don't
wait until you are in the middle of work!
4.Start uniquely the engine from the drivers
seat. Do not attempt to start by shorting across
the starter terminals as this can cause the
tractor to move instantly!
5.Before starting, assure the area is clear
(children)! Ensure that nothing obstructs
vision.
6.Never let the engine run within a confined
space!
7.The driver should wear close-fitting clothing.
Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments!
8.Take extra care when handling fuel - increased
fire hazard. Never add diesel in the vicinity of a
flame or sparks. Do not smoke when filling up!
9.Before adding diesel, turn off the engine and
remove the ignition key. Do not fill up in
confined spaces. Clean up spillages
immediately!
10.To avoid fire hazard keep the tractor clean!
11.Beware of leaking brake fluid and battery
acid (toxic and corrosive)!
1.It is not permitted to carry a passenger unless
the tractor is fitted with an appropriate
passenger's seat!
2.No other passengers may be carried!

Front loader operation
Text-module
1.Driving speed must always be adapted to
prevailing conditions. Avoid sudden cornering
when traversing hillsides and on steep
gradients. Disengage the differential lock
when negotiating bends. Never press the
clutch pedal when travelling downhill!
2.Make sure all trailing equipment is properly
hitched. Driving characteristics, steering and
braking are influenced by mounted
implements, trailers and counterweights.
Therefore always ensure adequate steering
and braking capacity!
3.Observe maximum permissible total weight,
axle loading and tyre load-bearing capacity,
especially with heavy implements!
4.When negotiating bends with mounted or
semi-mounted implements, always take into
consideration overhang and centrifugal force
of the implement!
1.Never allow anyone within the working range
of the front loader. Make sure the area is kept
clear of bystanders at all times. Do not operate
the front loader unless the entire working area
is in full view, if necessary, illuminate the area.
2.It is not permitted to use the standard loader
as a working platform. Operations with a
special working platform require additional
safety measures.
3.Do not handle round bales, pallets etc. unless
the loader is equipped with the adequate
equipment for this purpose. If handling objects
which cannot be secured, do not use the front
loader unless the driving seat is protected by
an impact-resistant protective roof.
