SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
11.
If the front end of the tractor tends to rise when heavy
implements are attached to the three-point hitch, install front
end or front wheel weights. Do not operate the tractor with a
light front end.
12. Always set the hydraulic selector lever in position control
when attaching equipment and when transporting
equipment. Be sure hydraulic couplers are properly
mounted and will disconnect safely in case of accidental
detachment of implement.
13. Do not leave equipment in the raised position.
DRIVING THE TRACTOR
1. watch where you are going especially at row ends, on roads,
around trees and low hanging obstacles.
2. To avoid upsets drive the tractor with care and at speeds
compatible with safety, especially when operating over rough
ground, when crossing ditches or slopes, and when turning
corners.
3. Lock tractor brake pedals together when transporting on
roads to provide two wheel braking.
4. Keep the tractor in the same gear when going downhill as
used when going uphill. Do not coast or free wheel down
hills.
5. Any towed vehicle whose total weight exceeds that of the
towing tractor must be equipped with brakes for safe
operation.
6. when the tractor is stuck or tires are frozen to the ground,
back up the tractor to prevent upset.
7. Always check overhead clearance, especially when
transporting the tractor.
8. When operating at night, adjust lights to prevent blinding an
oncoming driver.
OPERATING THE PTO
1. When operating P.T.O driven equipment, shut off the engine
and wait until the P.T.O. stops before getting off the tractor
and disconnecting the equipment.
2. Do not wear loose clothing when operating the power
takeoff, or when near rotating equipment.
3. When operating stationary P.T.O. driven equipment, always
place both gear shift levers in neutral, apply the tractor
parking brake and block the rear wheels front and back.
4. To avoid injury, do not clean, adjust, unclog or service P.T.O.
driven equipment when the tractor engine is running.
5. Make sure the P.T.O. master shield is installed at all times
and always replace the P.T.O. shield cap when the P.T.O. is
not in use.
DIESEL FUEL
1. Under no circumstances should gasoline, alcohol or
blended fuels be added to diesel fuel. These combinations
can create an increased fire or explosive hazard. Such
blends are more explosive than pure gasoline in a closed
container such as a fuel tank. Do not use these blends.
2. Never remove the fuel cap or refuel with the engine running
or hot.
3. Do not smoke while refuelling or when standing near fuel.
4. Maintain control of the fuel filler pipe nozzle when filling the
tank.
5. Do not fill the fuel tank to capacity. Allow room for
expansion.
6. Wipe up spilled fuel immediately.
7. Always tighten the fuel tank cap securely.
8. If the original fuel tank cap is lost, replace it with a
RANSOMES approved cap. A non-approved, proprietary
cap may not be safe.
9. Keep equipment clean and properly maintained.
10. Do not drive equipment near open fires.
11. Never use fuel for cleaning purposes.
12. Arrange fuel purchases so that summer grade fuels are not
held over and used in the winter.
SAFETY FRAME (ROPS)
If your RANSOMES Tractor is equipped with a safety frame it must
be maintained in a serviceable condition. Be careful when driving
through doorways or working in confined spaces with low headroom.
Under no circumstances:
1.
. . . . modify, drill or alter the safety frame in any way as
doing so could render you liable to legal prosecution.
2. . . . . attempt to straighten or weld any part of the main frame
or retaining brackets which have suffered damage. By doing
so you may weaken the structure and endanger your safety.
3. . . . . secure any parts on the main frame or attach your
safety frame with other than the special high tensile bolts
and nuts specified.
4. . . . . attach chains or ropes to the main frame for pulling
purposes.
5. . . . . take unnecessary risks even though your safety frame
affords you the maximum protection possible.
