AVOID TIPPING OVER
When starting the tractor on an uphill slope, shift to as
low a gear as possible and reduce the engine speed to
avoid tipping over backward.
Do not drive near the edge of a gully or a steep
embankment. Avoid holes, ditches, etc. which may
cause the tractor to tip over, especially on hillsides or
steep slopes.
When operating on slopes or rough uneven ground, it is
important to have as much distance as possible
between the wheels. Operate the tractor carefully at the
lowest speed.
Do not pull carts etc. from the top link or the top link
hinge, rear axle, or any point above the drawbar. Doing
so could cause the tractor to tip over backward. Only
attach items to be pulled to the drawbar.
Use care when pulling loads or installing a heavy
implement.
(1) Only use approved hitch points.
(2) Limit loads to those which you can control
safely.
(3) Limit travel speeds so that you can control the
tractor safely.
(4) Do not turn too quickly.
(5) Use care when backing up.
(6) Install the amount of ballast recommended in
the operator’s manual.
Driving forward out of ditch or in muddy conditions, or
up a steep slope, could cause the tractor to tip over
backward. If the mud is deep enough it will keep the
wheels from turning. Then, the tractor will rotate up and
back around the axle very quickly. When stuck in
muddy conditions, do not remove the implement or
ballast weight. Always back out.
