Using the Rollover
Protection System (ROPS)
WARNING
To avoid injury or death from rollover, keep
the roll bar in the fully raised, locked position
and use the seat belt.
Ensure that the seat is secured to the
machine.
WARNING
There is no rollover protection when the roll
bar is in the down position.
• Lower the roll bar only when absolutely
necessary.
• Do not wear the seat belt when the roll bar
is in the down position.
• Drive slowly and carefully.
• Raise the roll bar as soon as clearance
permits.
• Check carefully for overhead clearances
(i.e., branches, doorways, electrical wires)
before driving under any objects and do
not contact them.

absolutely necessary.
