2.6 Tire Spacing

Tractor tires should be set a minimum of 60” apart
measured from inside of tire to inside of tire.  Refer
to the tractor Operator’s Manual or consult an
authorized dealer for instructions to change tractor
tire spacing.  

OPS-R- 0062

3. GETTING ON AND OFF THE TRACTOR

Before getting onto the tractor, the operator must read and completely understand the implement and tractor
operator manuals.  If any part of either manual is not completely understood, consult an authorized dealer for
a complete explanation.  

OPS-U- 0007

Do not mount the Tractor while the tractor is moving.  Mount the Tractor
only when the Tractor and all moving parts are completely stopped.  

(SG-12)

3.1 Boarding the Tractor

Use both hands and equipped handrails and steps for support when boarding the tractor.  Never use control
levers for support when mounting the tractor.  Seat yourself in the operator’s seat and secure the seat belt
around you.
Never allow passengers to ride on the tractor or attached equipment.  Riders can easily fall off and be
seriously injured or killed from falling off and being ran over.  It is the operator’s responsibility to forbid all extra
riders at all times.  

OPS-U- 0008

Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Power Unit or
Implement.  Falling off can result in serious injury or death. 

    

(SPU-16)

Never allow children to operate or ride on the Power Unit or Implement.
