out of the tractor to check personally ground quality. In the described conditions, always keep the load
as close as possible to the tractor and the ground.
WARNING: Do not try to get off the moving tractor, even if it is overturning, to avoid being crushed un-
der it, but remain seated with the well fastened seat belt and hold firmly the steering wheel.
WARNING: If the tractor is used as a fixed power unit without supervision (e.g. connection to a pump unit
for irrigation), put up warnings against this dangerous situation and barriers to keep off unauthorized
personnel.
