WARNING
Failure to properly inspect and maintain the
seat belt can cause serious injury or death.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF
THE ROLL BAR SEAT BELT
The seat belt like the ROLL BAR, needs to be
periodically inspected to verify that the integrity
has not been compromised through normal
machine use, misuse, age degradation,
modifications, or a roll over. If the seat belt does
not pass all of the following tests, it should be
replaced.
BEFORE EACH USE – Conduct the following
inspections/maintenance of the seat belt and
retraction mechanism:
1) Check for dirt or debris in the retraction
mechanism. If dirt or debris is found, it should
be removed.
2) Check to make sure the retraction mechanism
retracts easily and completely.
3) Check for damage to any part of the seat belt
such as nicks, cuts, loose stitching, or fraying.
4) Check that the buckle and latch operate
properly and that the latch plate is not
excessively worn, deformed, or the buckle is
damaged or cracked. The seat belt should
latch and release easily.
