LeeBoy 400T - Preliminary Procedures; Pre-Start Checks

PRELIMINARY PROCEDURES
Adjusting Operator Seat
Adjust and fasten the seat belt before
operating the roller. NEVER operate the machine
without wearing seat belt.
Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
the roller is moving.
The seat can be adjusted for individual comfort. The
seat position lever allows the operator to move the seat
forward and backward for easy access to the steering
wheel and hydraulic controls. The seat belt provides
safe operator retention if the machine is involved in an
accident or rollover incident. Adjust the seat belt for
comfortable machine operation.
