-7SAFE OPERATION
LOADER
Most loader equipment accidents can be avoided by following simple safety precautions.
These safety precautions, if followed at all times, will help you operate your loader safely.
1. Read and understand all instructions and precautions
found in both the tractor and the loader operator's
manuals before using the loader.
Lack of knowledge can lead to accidents.
2. It is the owner's responsibility to ensure that anyone
who will operate the loader reads this manual first and
becomes familiar with the safe operation of the loader.
3. For your safety, a ROPS with a seat belt is strongly
recommended by KUBOTA in almost all applications.
If your tractor has a foldable ROPS, fold it down only
when absolutely necessary and raise it up and lock it
again as soon as possible. Do not wear the seat belt
when a foldable ROPS is down or a fixed ROPS is
removed. If you have any questions, consult your local
KUBOTA dealer.
Always use the seat belt when the tractor is equipped
with a ROPS. Never use the seat belt when the tractor
is not equipped with a ROPS.
4. Visually check for hydraulic leaks and broken, missing,
or malfunctioning parts.
Make necessary repairs before operating.
5. Replace damaged or illegible safety labels. See
following pages for required labels.
6. When the front loader is mounted on the tractor, enter
and exit the operator's seat only from left side of the
tractor.
7. Engage the loader control valve lock to prevent
accidental actuation when the implement is not in use
or during transport. Do not utilize the valve lock for
machine maintenance or repair.
8. Assemble, remove and reinstall the loader only as
directed in this manual. Failure to do this could result
in serious personal injury or death.
9. Check that all nuts, bolts, and pins are properly fitted
and tightened to specification.
10.Ensure that the approved counterweight and tires are
fitted to the tractor.
11.Remove mid mount mower deck (if fitted) before
operating the loader.
1. Operate the loader only when properly seated at the
controls. Do not operate from the ground.
2. Move and turn the tractor at low speeds. (less than 10
km/h)
3. Never allow anyone to get under the loader bucket or
reach through the boom when the bucket is raised.
4. Keep children, others and livestock away when
operating loader and tractor.
5. Do not walk or work under a raised loader bucket or
attachment unless it is securely blocked and held in
position.
6. For tractor stability and operator safety, a counter
weight of the recommended size must be added to the
3-point hitch when using loader.
7. To increase stability adjust the rear wheels to the
widest setting that is suitable for your application.
8. Exercise extra caution when operating the loader with
a raised bucket or attachment.
9. Do not lift or carry any person on the loader, in the
bucket, or other attachment.
10.Avoid loose fill, rocks and holes. They can be
dangerous for loader operation or movement.
11.Avoid overhead wires and obstacles when the loader
is raised. Contacting electric lines can cause
electrocution.
12.Gradually stop the loader boom when lowering or
lifting.
13.Use caution when handling loose or shiftable loads.
14.Using loaders for handling large, heavy, or shiftable
objects is not recommended without proper handling
attachments.
15.Handling large heavy objects can be extremely
dangerous due to :
A Danger of rolling the tractor over.
A Danger of upending the tractor.
A Danger of the object rolling or sliding down the
loader boom onto the operator.
16.If you must perform this sort of work (item 15), protect
yourself by :
A Never lift the load higher than necessary to clear
the ground.
A Ensure that the Rated Operating Load is not
exceeded.
A Always use the recommended counter weight.
A Never lift large objects with equipment that may
permit them to roll back onto the operator.
A Move slowly and carefully, avoiding rough terrain.
17.Never lift or pull a load from any point on the loader
with a chain, rope, or cable. Doing so could cause a
rollover or serious damage to the loader.
