(1) Lugs (both sides)
(A) 3.8 m
(B) 4.0 m
(C) 1.5 m
2. Precautions of ROPS and FOPS
Know your equipment and its limitations. Read and
understand this entire manual before starting and
operating the machine with the ROPS and FOPS.
• For your safety, KUBOTA installs a ROPS (roll-
over-protective-structure) and a FOPS (falling-
objects-protective-structure) with a seat belt.
Always use the seat belt when the machine is
equipped with canopy or cab.
OSHA regulations and SAE standard require the
ROPS and FOPS on wheel loaders, bulldozers,
truck type loaders, graders, and scrapers.
(1) ROPS and FOPS
• Never modify structural members of ROPS by
welding, drilling, bending, grinding, or cutting
because modifying may weaken the structure. If
any component is damaged, replace it. Do not
attempt repairs. If ROPS is loosened or removed
for any reason, reinstall all parts correctly. Tighten
mounting bolts to proper torque.
• Do not install any ballast, including water, and
calcium chloride that is added into the tires, that
exceed the specified maximum weight shown under
“MAXIMUM GROSS MACHINE WEIGHT”
space on
the ROPS label.
