SAFE OPERATION-2
Operator safety is a priority. Safe operation, specifically
with respect to overturning hazards, entails understanding
the equipment and environmental conditions at the time of
use. Some prohibited uses which can affect overturning
hazards include traveling and turning with implements
and loads carried too high etc. This manual sets forth
some of the obvious risks, but the list is not, and cannot
be, exhaustive. It is the operator's responsibility to be alert
for any equipment or environmental condition that could
compromise safe operation.
C Starting
1. Always sit in the operator's seat when starting engine
or operating levers or controls. Adjust seat per
instructions in the operating the tractor section. Never
start engine while standing on the ground.
2. Before starting the engine, make sure that all levers
(including auxiliary control levers) are in their neutral
positions, that the parking brake is engaged, and that
the Power Take-Off (PTO) is disengaged or "OFF".
Fasten the seat belt if the tractor has a CAB, a fixed
ROPS or a foldable ROPS in the upright and locked
position.
3. Do not start engine by shorting across starter
terminals or bypassing the safety start switch.
Machine may start in gear and move if normal starting
circuitry is bypassed.
4. Do not operate or idle engine in a non-ventilated area.
Carbon monoxide gas is colorless, odorless, and
deadly.
5. Check before each use that operator presence
controls are functioning correctly. Test safety systems.
(See "Checking Engine Start System" and "Checking
OPC System" in "EVERY 50 HOURS" in "PERIODIC
SERVICE OF THE TRACTOR" section.)
Do not operate unless they are functioning correctly.
C Working
1. Pull only from the hitch. Never hitch to axle housing or
any other point except hitch; such arrangements will
increase the risk of serious personal injury or death
due to a tractor upset.
2. Keep all shields and guards in place. Replace any that
are missing or damaged.
3. Avoid sudden starts. To avoid upsets, slow down
when turning, on uneven ground, and before stopping.
4. The tractor cannot turn with the differential locked and
attempting to do so could be dangerous.
5. Do not operate near ditches, holes, embankments, or
other ground surface features which may collapse
under the tractor's weight. The risk of tractor upset is
even higher when the ground is loose or wet. Tall
grass can hide obstacles, walk the area first to be sure.
6. Watch where you are going at all times. Watch for and
avoid obstacles. Be alert at row ends, near trees, and
other obstructions.
7. When working in groups, always let the others know
what you are going to do before you do it.
8. Never try to get on or off a moving tractor.
9. Always sit in the operator's seat when operating levers
or controls.
10.Do not stand between tractor and implement or trailed
vehicle unless parking brake is applied.
C Safety for children
Tragedy can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children generally are attracted to
machines and the work they do.
1. Never assume that children will remain where you last
saw them.
2. Keep children out of the work area and under the
watchful eye of another responsible adult.
3. Be alert and shut your machine down if children enter
the work area.
4. Never carry children on your machine. There is no safe
place for them to ride. They may fall off and be run
over or interfere with your control of the machine.
5. Never allow children to operate the machine even
under adult supervision.
