SECTION I SAFETY/DECALS/SYMBOL
XVI
Introduction to Safety
This safety section of your Operator Instruction Book is intended to point
out some of the basic safety situations which may be encountered during
the normal operation and maintenance of your FOOTSTEP (ROPS) or
CAB tractor, and to suggest possible ways of dealing with these situations.
This section is NOT a replacement for other safety practices featured in
other sections of this book.
Additional precautions may be necessary, depending on attachments
used and conditions at the work site or in the service area. The tractor
maker has no direct control over tractor application, operation, inspection,
lubrication, or maintenance. Therefore it is YOUR responsibility to use
good safety practices in these areas.
Safety
The safety of the operator is one of the main concerns in designing and
developing a new tractor. Designers incorporate as many safety features
as is possible in constructing our tractors. However, every year many
accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds thought
and a more careful approach to handling farm machinery and implements.
Read and practice the safety instructions detailed in the next pages of this
book.
