SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USERS
ZETOR TRACTORS USED FOR WORK IN THE WOODS
Standard tractors Zetor do not provide sufficient protection for operation in forest terrain as, for example, protection against a fal-
ling tree or branch on a cab or penetration of objects to a cab.
If Zetor tractor is utilized for forest work, a tractor operated within the European Union must be protected against these risks.
It is necessary to observe applicable local valid regulations in countries which are not part of the European Union.
To ensure this protection, it is advisable to conduct assembly of a specific protective structure, like for example FOPS / OPS (Fal-
ling Object Protective Structure / Operator Protective Structure), tested according to standards for forest machines.
Only forest superstructures approved by ZETOR TRACTORS can be mounted to ZETOR tractors.
In case of additional assembly of further tractor equipment for working in the woods, full responsibility is borne by the supplier and
manufacturer of the protective structure that all the safety regulations (e.g: OPS / FOPS), all the conditions of homologation (e.g.
the area of driver’s view, lighting, parameters, permissible weight etc.) are met, same as for the provision of due assembly of pro-
tective equipment. The supplier/manufacturer of protective construction is also obliged to conduct all the necessary validation
(approval) steps required by the legislature of the country in which the tractor is operated.
