WARNING : Never lift a load over anyone
Keep others away from your operation. Never
allow anyone to stand or pass under a raised
implement (Fig. 2-16)
DO NOT lift object that cannot be contained safely
inthe bucket, get the appropriate attachment.
Never allow anyone to stand on the safety frame
or fenders,.
When using a loader, avoid sudden stops,
starts, turns, or change of direction. Keep loads
as near to the ground as possible.
Never stand (or allow anyone else to stand) in front
of, under, or behind loaded or loading equipment.
Never drive a tractor up to someone standing in
front of a fixed object.
Keep others away from articulation joints,
itches, drawbar, lift arm, PTO drive, cylinders,
belts, pulleys, and other moving parts. Keep all
shields and guards in place.
2.28 Risk of overturning
For your safety, it is recommended that all platform
tractors are fitted with safety frame and seat belts
(Fig.2-17)
In the event of overturning with a tractor fitted with
a safety frame, hold the steering wheel firmly and DO
NOT attempt to leave the seat until the tractor has
come to rest. (fig. 2-17).
2.29 To avoid side overturns:
Set the wheel track at the widest setting suitable
for the job being done.
Lock the brake pedals together before driving at
transport speeds.
Reduce speed to match operating conditions. If
the tractor is equipped with a front end loader,
carry the bucket and load as low as possible.
Make wide slow turns at reduced speed. DON'T
let your tractor bounce. You may loose steering
control.
DON'T pull a load too heavy for your tractor. It
could run away on the down slope or the tractor
could jackknife around a towed load.
DON'T brake suddenly. Apply brakes smoothly
and gradually.
When going down a slope use the throttle to
slow the tractor engine and use the same gear
you would use to up the slope. Shift into gear
before you start downhill.
Engine four-wheel drive (if fitted), this will give
four- wheel braking.
