7. OPERATING THE ENGINE
NEVER run or idle the engine in a
confined area that is poorly ventilated or
not ventilated at all. The engine emits
carbon monoxide as that is colorless,
odorless and can cause death.
ALWAYS remain seated in the operator’s station
when starting the engine or actuating the levers or
controls.
Always ensure that your foot is removed from the
forward and reverse pedal, the parking brake is
engaged and Power Take Off (PTO) switch is in the
OFF position before the engine is started.
While operating the tractor, make sure to keep the
seat belt fastened with the Roll-Over Protective
Structure (ROPS) equipped. This will reduce the
possibility of injury or death in the event of an
accident such as an overturn or roll-over.
Start the engine of your tractor only with the starter
key switch. NEVER attempt to start the tractor engine
by short-circuiting across its terminals with a jumper
or by bypassing the safety start switch.
Before operation, make sure that all the safety
features are functioning correctly. Make corrections
as necessary.
