SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL
XXXII
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.
Start Safely
Always start the engine from the operator’s seat with all the transmission
levers and the P.T.O. 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.
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 ASPHYXIA-
TION.
