SAFETY
7
WHEN TRAVELLING
(1) When you travel on roads, ensure the differential lock
is off, or the tractor may turn over.
(2) Do not make sharp turns when operating at high
speed or for transportation as the tractor may turn
over.
(3) When operating on poor footing such as a rough
road, a slope, a road along a ditch or river, or unde-
veloped land, drive the tractor at low speeds and
operate it carefully.
(4) Do not make sharp turns on a slope. It may cause
turnover of the tractor.
When climbing up a hill, shift the speed change lever
to the most suitable speed. Start moving the tractor
as slowly as possible.
While climbing up a hill, never shift speeds along the
way.
When starting to move the tractor on an up-hill slope,
be sure that the front wheels do not lift up.
When going down a hill, drive the tractor at slower
speed that used to climb up the hill.
While going down a hill, never shift into neutral, and
never try to control the speed only with the brakes;
use the engine brake effectively.
(5) When traveling on a road where one or both shoul-
ders are slanted and which run along a ditch, look out
for softened shoulders especially when the ditch is full
of water and be careful not to let the machine slip
sideway.
(6) Never allow other persons to get on the machine or
the implement except when the machine or the imple-
ment is provided with a seat or a platform for persons
to sit or stand on, and only within the capacity speci-
fied.
Never allow persons to get on the implement while
traveling on roads.
(7) When parking the tractor, you have to park it on hard,
level ground and provide sufficient safety measures
by grounding the implement, removing the key, apply-
ing the parking brakes, and chocking the wheels
securely.
(8) Keep inflammable away from the engine during oper-
ation. Especially during stationary operation do not
operate the engine at high speeds so as not to set fire
to grass or straw with a heated exhaust pipe or
exhaust fumes.
(9) When you have to operate the tractor at night, make
sure of the location of the controls. If not, the tractor
might work unexpectedly by mistake.
