rough roads and surfaces.

safety and movement of machinery on public roads.
• The use of flashing amber lights is acceptable in
most localities. However, some localities prohibit
their use.
• Local laws should be checked for all highway lighting
and marking requirements.
• Always yield to oncoming traffic in all situations and
move to the side of the road so any following traffic
may pass.
• Always enter curves or drive up or down hills at a
low speed and at a gradual steering angle.
• Never allow riders on either tractor or equipment.
• Keep tractor / towing vehicle in a lower gear at all
times when traveling down steep grades.

Machine Requirements And Capabilities
• Fasten seat belt securely. If equipped with a foldable
Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS), only fasten
seat belt when ROPS is up and locked. DO NOT wear
seat belt if ROPS is down.
• Stop the machine and engage the parking brake.
Install blocks in front of and behind the rear tires of
the machine. Install blocks underneath and support
the equipment securely before working under raised
equipment.
• Keep bystanders clear of moving parts and the work
area. Keep children away.
• Use increased caution on slopes and near banks and
ditches to prevent overturn.
• Make certain that the Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV)
emblem is installed so that it is visible and legible.
When transporting the equipment, use the flashing
warning lights (if equipped) and follow all local
regulations.
• Operate this equipment with a machine equipped
with an approved Roll-Over Protective Structure
(ROPS). Always wear seat belt when the ROPS is up.
Serious injury or death could result from falling off
the machine.

the operator’s seat. Starting a machine in gear can
result in serious injury or death.
