SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
9. Do not leave equipment in the
raised position when the vehicle is
stopped or unattended.
10. When using implements or attach-
ments with your tractor you should
first read their respective owner's
manual. You should always keep
their safe operation procedures in
mind.
11. You should be familiar with your
equipment and its limitations.
12. If abused or used incorrectly your
tractor can become dangerous to
you and bystanders. Overloading
your tractor or using unsafe equip-
ment can also be dangerous and
should be avoided. Refer to the
"Specifications of Implement
Limitation", which outlines the
maximum load for safe tractor
operation.
15. When working in groups, always let
the others know what you are go-
ing to do before you do it.
16. Never "freewheel". Disengaging the
clutch or shifting into neutral while
descending a slope as this could
lead to a loss of control.
17. Do not operate near ditches, holes,
embankments, or other terrain fea-
tures which may collapse under the
tractor's weight. The risk of tractor
upset is even higher when the
ground is loose or wet.
13. Driving forward out of a ditch or
steep inclines can cause the trac-
tor 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 se-
curity in the tractors ability to ma-
neuver out of these positions, so
extra caution should be taken.
14. Never try to get on or off a moving
tractor.
