INTRODUCTION
Operator protective structure
Your machine is equipped with an operator protective structure, such as: a Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS),
Falling Objects Protective Structure (FOPS), or a cab with a ROPS. A ROPS may be a can frame or a two-posted or
four-posted structure used for the protection of the operator to minimize the possibility of serious injury. The mounting
structure and fasteners forming the mounting connection with the machine are part of the ROPS.
The protective structure is a special safety component of your machine.
DO NOT attach any device to the protective structure for pulling purposes. DO NOT drill holes to the protective
structure.
The protective structure and interconnecting components are a certified system. Any damage, fire, corrosion, or
modification will weaken the structure and reduce your protection. If this occurs, THE PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE
MUST BE REPLACED so that it will provide the same protection as a new protective structure. Contact your dealer
for protective structure inspection and replacement.
After an accident, fire, tip over, or roll over, the following MUST be performed by a qualified technician before
returning the machine to field or job-site operations:
• The protective structure MUST BE REPLACED.
• The mounting or suspension for the protective structure, operator’s seat and suspension, seat belts and mounting
components, and wiring within the operator’s protective system MUST be carefully inspected for damage.
• All damaged parts MUST BE REPLACED.
DO NOT WELD, DRILL HOLES, ATTEMPT TO STRAIGHTEN, OR REPAIR THE PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE. MOD-
IFICATION IN ANY WAY CAN REDUCE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE STRUCTURE, WHICH COULD
CAUSE DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY IN THE EVENT OF FIRE, TIP OVER, ROLL OVER, COLLISION, OR ACCI-
DENT.
Seat belts are part of your protective system and must be worn at all times. The operator must be held to the seat
inside the frame in order for the protective system to work.
Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS)
The Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) Product Iden-
tification Number (PIN) plate is on right-hand rear post.
The plate provides information such as the ROPS PIN,
the gross weight, approval, regulation, and model num-
ber of the machine.

Air-conditioning system
The air-conditioning system is under high pressure. Do not disconnect any lines. The release of high pressure can
cause serious injury.
The air-conditioning system contains gases that are harmful to the environment when released into the atmosphere.
Do not attempt to service or repair the system.
Only trained service technicians can service, repair, or recharge the air-conditioning system.
Backup alarm system
Place the travel controller in the reverse travel position and an audible alarm will sound repeatedly until the operator
moves the travel controller into neutral position or forward travel position.
