Prudence is essential when it comes to on the job safety and to
prevent industrial accidents.
The following cautions are offered here for this precise purpose.
Failure to follow the regulations given below exonerates our
firm from all civil and penal responsibility.
1. Switch off the engine when changing work attachments.
2. Switch off the engine when transporting the machine.
3. If you are working of a steep gradient, a second operator must prevent the
tractor from sliding or tipping over. He can do this with the help of a tensioned
cable upstream from the tractor and at a safe distance.
4. Every transfer or manuever should be made with the attachment control
disengaged.
5. The operator must keep a safe distance from the attachment.
6. Attachment guards should be positioned to prevent stones, grass or other
material from striking the operator or objects near the attachment.
7. When starting the engine, the operator should stand to the side of the tractor.
8. Never service, repair or carry out any kind of work on the tractor or attached
implements unless the engine has been turned off, the key removed from the
starter and the attachment lowered to the ground.
Pay extra attention to the cutting blade. Before any work, it must have come to a
complete stop.
9. The operator must make certain there are no persons, animals or things in
the machine's working range.

of the machine. Replace them when they are illegible or badly worn.
11. The operator must check to be certain
that every part of the tractor
and,

specs. They should be kept in perfect working condition. If you note any
malfunctioning, fix or repair them in good time. If necessary contact your
