Safety Notes
WARNING: DO NOT use aerosol types
aids such as ether (Fig. 12) . Such use
could result in an explosion and
personel injury.
DANGER: Start the engine, with the
starter key, from the operator's seat
only. DO NOT attempt to start the
engine by shorting across the starter
terminals. The machine will start in
gear if the neutral start circuit is bypassed. This
could cause serious injury or death to anyone in
the vicinity
of the tractor (Fig. 11). Ensure that the engine
starter solenoid cover is always in position.
Follow recommended starting procedures
Follow the starting procedures recommended in the
Operation section of this Operator Instruction Book.
This includes normal starting, cold starting, and the
use of starting fluids.
Test the controls
After starting, re-check all gauges and lights. Make
sure everything is functioning correctly. If the tractor
does not respond correctly when each control is
operated, DO NOT use the machine until the fault
is rectified.
WARNING: Before starting the engine
make sure there is plenty of ventilation.
DO NOT operate the engine in a closed
building. The exhaust fumes may cause
asphyxiation.
Always start the engine from the operator's seat with
all the transmission levers and the PTO lever in
neutral. Make sure that the tractor's dual brake pedals
are locked together at all times unless you are making
turns in the field which require independent use of
the brakes. Make sure the brakes are properly
adjusted so that both brakes engage at the same
time. Adjust the seat, fasten the seat belt, apply the
parking brake and put all controls in neutral before
starting up.

Starting
Warn personnel before starting
Before starting, walk completely around the tractor
and any attached equipment. Make sure that no one
is under it, on it, or close to it. Let other workers and
bystanders know you are starting up and don't start
until everyone is clear of the tractor, implements and
towed equipment. Ensure that all bystanders,
particularly children, are a suitable distance away
before starting the engine.
Mount and dismount safely
Always use 'three point contact' with the machine,
and face the machine when you mount it. (Three
point contact means both hands and one foot or one
hand and both feet are in contact with the machine
at all times during mounting and dismounting). Clean
your shoes and wipe your hands before climbing on.
Use handrails, grab handles, ladders or steps (as
provided) when mounting or dismounting. DO NOT
use control levers as a hand hold and never step on
foot controls when mounting or dismounting. DO
NOT attempt to mount or dismount from a moving
tractor. DO NOT jump off a tractor other than in an
emergency.
