• Do not stand between tractor and implement or
trailed vehicle unless parking brake is applied.
3. Safety for children
Tragedy can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children generally are attracted to
machines and the work they do.
• Never assume that children will remain where you
last saw them.
• Keep children out of the work area and under the
watchful eye of another responsible adult.
• Be alert and shut your machine down if children
enter the work area.
• Never carry children on your machine. There is no
safe place for them to ride. They may fall off and be
run over or interfere with your control of the
machine.
• Never allow children to operate the machine even
under adult supervision.
• Never allow children to play on the machine or on
the implement.
• Use extra caution when backing up. Look behind
and down to make sure area is clear before
moving.
4. Avoiding crystalline silica (quartz)
dust
To avoid serious injury or death from silica dust:
• Avoid exposure to dust containing crystalline silica
particles.
This dust can cause serious injury to the lungs
(silicosis).
Because crystalline silica is a basic component of
sand and granite, many activities at construction
sites produce dust containing crystalline silica.
Trenching, sawing and boring of material containing
crystalline silica can produce dust containing
crystalline silica.
• If dust which contains crystalline silica is present,
there are guidelines which should be followed:
– Be aware of the potential health effects of
crystalline silica and that smoking may add to
the damage.
– Be aware of and follow OSHA (or other local,
State or Federal) guidelines for exposure to
airborne crystalline silica.
– Know the work operations where exposure to
crystalline silica may occur.
– Participate in air monitoring or training
programs offered by the employer.
– Be aware of and use optional equipment
controls such as water sprays, local exhaust
ventilation, and enclosed CABs with positive
pressure air conditioning, if the machine has
such equipment. Otherwise respirators shall be
worn.
– Where respirators are required, wear a
respirator approved for protection against
crystalline silica containing dust. Do not alter
the respirator in any way. Workers who use
tight-fitting respirators cannot have beards/
mustaches which interfere with the respirator
seal to the face.
– If possible, change into disposable or washable
work clothes at the work site; shower and
change into clean clothing before leaving the
work site.
– Do not eat, drink, use tobacco products, or
apply cosmetics in areas where there is dust
containing crystalline silica.
– Store food, drink and personal belongings away
from the work area.
– Wash hands and face before eating, drinking,
smoking, or applying cosmetics after leaving
the exposure area.
5. Operating on slopes
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and
tipover accidents, which can result in severe injury or
death. All slopes require extra caution.
• To avoid upsets, always back up steep slopes. If
you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy
on it, do not operate on it. Stay off slopes too steep
for safe operation.
• Driving forward out of a ditch, mired condition or up
a steep slope increases the risk of a tractor to be
upset backward. Always back out of these
situations. Extra caution is required with 4-wheel
drive models because their increased traction can
give the operator false confidence in the tractor's
ability to climb slopes.
• Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed, direction or
apply brake and make sudden motions of the
steering wheel.
• Avoid disengaging the clutch or changing gears
speed when climbing or going down a slope. If on a
