Operator presence system
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence system to prevent the use of some features while the operator is
not in the operator’s seat.
The operator presence system should never be disconnected or bypassed.
If the system is inoperable, the system must be repaired.
Power Take-Off (PTO)
Power Take-Off (PTO) driven machinery can cause death or serious injury. Before working on or near the PTO shaft
or servicing or clearing the driven tractor, put the PTO lever in the disengage position, stop the engine, and remove
the key.
Whenever a PTO is in operation, a guard must be in place to prevent death or injury to the operator or bystanders.
When doing stationary PTO work, keep clear of all moving parts and make sure appropriate guards are in place.
Never use a spline adapter:
• Match the right tractor PTO spline and speed with the PTO driveshaft provided with an implement. This will assure
proper geometry and operating speed.
• Never operate
540 RPM
implements at
1000 RPM
.
• Never operate
1000 RPM
implements at
540 RPM
.
• Use of PTO adapters will void the warranty of the drive shaft, and the PTO drive train of the machine and implement.
• For correct hitch geometry, see the implement operator’s manual.
Reflectors and warning lights
Flashing amber warning lights must be used when operating on public roads. Location and use of flashing amber
warning lights is shown in the Operator’s Manual.
Seat belts
Seat belts must be worn at all times.
Seat belt inspection and maintenance:
• Keep seat belts in good condition.
• Keep sharp edges and items than can cause damage away from the belts.
• Periodically check belts, buckles, retractors, tethers, slack take-up system, and mounting bolts for damage and
wear.
• Replace all parts that have damage or wear.
• Replace belts that have cuts that can make the belt weak.
• Check that bolts are tight on the seat bracket or mounting.
• If belt is attached to seat, make sure seat or seat brackets are mounted securely.
• Keep seat belts clean and dry.
