1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Ex2900 / 3200 Operator's Manual
Before starting any servicing work, park your tractor
on solid, level ground, engage the parking brake
securely, lower the implement to the ground, set all
the levers to the neutral position, shut down the
engine and remove the starter key switch.
1. Always keep a first-aid kit and a fire extinguisher
readily available.
2. Before accessing the engine, muffler, radiator or
other possibly hot components, wait until the
tractor has fully cooled off.
3. Use extreme care in handling gasoline and diesel
fuels. They are extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive. Use only an approved
container.
4. Be sure to shut down the engine before refueling.
After refueling, replace fuel cap securely and
wipe off any spilled fuel before starting the engine
as it may cause a fire or explosion.
5. Do not smoke while refueling. Keep any spark or
open flame away from the fuel tank.
6. Never refuel the machine indoors because fuel
vapors will accumulate in the area.
7. 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.
8. Do not smoke while working around the battery.
Keep any spark or open flame away from the
battery. The battery emits hydrogen and oxygen
gas, in particular, during recharging and can pose
a hazard of explosion.
9. Prior to “jump starting” a tractor that has a fully
depleted battery, read and follow all the
instructions in the “7. OPERATING THE
ENGINE”.
10. Carefully loosen the radiator cap to the first stop,
and allow excessive pressure to escape, and only
then remove the radiator cap. If the tractor is
equipped with a coolant reserve tank, add coolant
or water to the reserve tank, not to the radiator
(See “Checking the Cooling System”).
11. Before working on or around electric
components, first disconnect the battery ground
cable.
12. To prevent a spark occurring from short-circuit,
disconnect the battery grounding (–) terminal first
and reconnect last.
13. The operator must not mount a tire onto a rim.
Only qualified personnel should do this task.
14. Always keep the tires at a correct pressure level.
Do not exceed the recommended tire pressure
specified in the operator’s manual.
15. Keep the tractor securely supported while
changing the wheels or adjusting the wheel tread
width. Be sure to tighten the wheel bolts at the
specified tightening torque.
