• To prevent injury, do not adjust, unclog, clean,
or service PTO driven equipment while the
tractor engine is running.
• Make certain all PTO shields are always installed.
5. SAFETY FRAME (ROPS)
Your tractor is equipped with a rollover protective
structure (ROPS) which must be maintained in a
fully functional condition. Use care when driving
through doorways or spaces with a low overhead.
• Never modify the ROPS in any way.
• Never attempt to straighten or reweld any part
of the main frame or retaining brackets that
have been damaged. Doing so may weaken
the structure and endanger your safety.
• Never secure any parts on the main frame or
attach the safety frame with anything other than
the special fasteners specified.
• Never attach ropes, chains, or cables to the
ROPS for pulling purposes.
• Although the ROPS provides you the maximum
protection possible, never take unnecessary risks.
6. SERVICE
• Use extreme care in handling gasoline and
other fuels. They are extremely flammable and
the vapors are explosive. Use only an approved
container.
• Never remove fuel cap or add fuel with the
engine running.
• Replace fuel cap securely and wipe off any
spilled fuel before starting the engine as it may
cause a fire or explosion.
• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and
other sources of ignition.
• Never refuel the machine indoors because fuel
vapors will accumulate in the area.
• Never store the fuel container or machine
inside where there is an open flame or spark,
such as a gas hot water heater, space heater
or furnace.
• The cooling system is under pressure. Never
remove the radiator cap when the system is
hot. Slowly turn the cap the to the first stop to
release pressure before removing the cap.
• Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure can
penetrate the skin. If fluid is injected into the
skin, seek immediate medical attention. Do not
use your hand to check for leaks. Use a piece
of cardboard or paper.
• Never run a machine inside a closed area.
• To reduce fire hazard, keep the tractor free of
any debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage.
• Before cleaning, repairing or inspecting, make
certain all moving parts have stopped. Keep all
nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the
equipment is in safe working condition.
• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their
proper operation regularly.
• Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and
service as required.
• Engine components become hot during
operation and can cause a burn. Allow to cool
down before touching.
• Do not change the engine governor settings or
overspeed the engine. Excessive engine
speeds are dangerous.
• Observe proper disposal laws and regulations.
Improper disposal of fluids and materials can
harm the environment and the ecology.
• Prior to disposal, determine the proper method
to dispose of waste from your local
Environmental Protection Agency. Recycling
centers are established to properly dispose of
materials in an environmentally safe fashion.
• Use proper containers when draining fluids. Do
not use food or beverage containers that may
mislead someone into drinking from them.
Properly dispose of the containers immediately
following the draining of fluids.
• DO NOT pour oil or other fluids into the ground,
down a drain or into a stream, pond, lake or
other body of water. Observe Environmental
Protection Agency regulations when disposing
of oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, batteries,
tires and other harmful waste.
• We do not recommend the use of a pressure
washer or garden hose to clean your unit. They
may cause damage to electrical components;
spindles; pulleys; bearings; or the engine. The
use of water will result in shortened life and
reduce serviceability.
