3. Getting On and Off the Tractor
3.1 Boarding the Tractor
To ensure tractor stability when operating add
wheel ballast or rear weights to rear tractor tires.
For better stability, use tractor with wide front axle
rather than tricycle front wheels. Move wheels to
the tractor manufacturer’s widest recommended
settings to increase stability. If 3-Point hitch
counterweights are used, they should be carried
as low as possible at all times to maximize stability.
Effective counterbalance weight at rear axle of
mounted rear equipment is determined by
multiplying actual weight of equipment by 1.50.
EXAMPLE: Equipment weighing 800 pounds,
attached to tractor, multiplied by 1.50, equals 1200
pounds of effective counterbalance weight at rear
axle.
A tractor that does not meet this criteria is
DANGEROUS and should not be operated as
upset of the unit can occur resulting in possible
serious injury and property damage.
OPS-L-
0001_A
Do not mount or dismount the Tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount
the Tractor only when the Tractor and all moving parts are
completelystopped.
(SG-12)
Before getting onto the tractor, the operator must read and completely understand the implement and tractor
operator manuals. If any part of either manual is not completely understood, consult an authorized dealer for
a complete explanation.
OPS-L- 0022
Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in serious injury or death.
