SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1-7
11. Driving forward out of a ditch or steep
inclines can cause the tractor to tip
over backwards. To avoid this you
should back out of these positions.
Four wheel drive tractors can give you
a false sense of security in the trac-
tors ability to maneuver out of these
positions, so extra caution should be
taken.
12.Watch front and rear for and avoid
obstacles at row ends, near trees
and around other obstructions.
14. Never try to get on or off a moving
tractor.
15. When working in groups, always let
the others know what you are going
to do before you do it.
16. Never “freewheel”. Disengaging the
clutch or shifting into neutral while
descending a slope as this could lead
to a loss of control.
17. Do not operate near ditches, holes,
embankments, or other terrain fea-
tures which may collapse under the
tractor’s weight. The risk of tractor
upset is even higher when the ground
is loose or wet.
13. If abused or used incorrectly your trac-
tor can become dangerous to you and
bystanders. Overloading your tractor
or using unsafe equipment can also
be dangerous and should be avoided.
Refer to the “Specifications of Imple-
ment Limitation”, which outlines the
m a x i m u m l o a d f o r s a f e t r a c t o r
operation.
