WARNING
Always connect the left and right brake pedals with
the connector. Otherwise, one-sided braking can
cause a roll over.
When approaching the field or when crossing a
ditch, use a gangplank of sufficient strength to enter
the field. Lower any implement to reduce the center
of gravity.
Climb a slope backwards, in reverse. Drive down a
slope forward, in low gear.
Before starting to climb a hill, lower any implement.
After the rear wheels are on the ridge (A), you can
lift the implement.
