3. GETTING ON AND OFF THE TRACTOR
Before getting onto the tractor, the operator must read and completely understand the mower and tractor operator
manuals. If any part of either manual is not completely understood, consult an authorized dealer for a complete
explanation.
Use both hands and equipped handrails and steps for support when getting on the tractor. Never use tractor
control levers for support when mounting the tractor. Always seat yourself in the operator’s seat and fasten the
seatbelt. Only operate the tractor and mower with the ROPS in the raised position.
Never allow passengers to ride on the tractor or mower. Riders can easily fall off and be seriously injured or killed
from being ran over by both the tractor and mower. It is the operator’s responsibility to forbid riders.

3.2 Dismounting the Tractor
Before dismounting, park the tractor and mower on a reasonably level surface, apply the parking brake, idle the
engine down, disengage the PTO, and lower the mower to the ground. Shut down the tractor engine according to
the operator’s manual, remove the key, and wait for all motion to completely stop. Never leave the seat until the
tractor, its engine and all moving mower parts are completely stopped.

Do not mount the Tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount the
Tractor only when the Tractor and all moving parts are completely
stopped. (SG-12)
