USE OF ROPS AND SEAT BELT
The Roll Over Protective Structure(ROPS) has been certified to industry
and/or government standards. Any damage or alternation to the ROPS,
mounting hard-ware, or seat belt voids the certification and will reduce
or eliminate protection for the operator in the event of a roll-over. The
ROPS, mounting hardware, and seat belt should be checked after the
first 100 hours of Tractor and every 500 hours thereafter for any
evidence of damage, wear or cracks. In the event of damage or
alteration, the ROPS must be replaced prior to further operation of the
Tractor.
The seat belt must be worn during machine operation when the machine
is equipped with a certified ROPS.
Failure to do so will reduce or eliminate protection for the operator in
the event of a roll over.
