•Always use the seat belt, except if the roll bar has been removed or, if applicable, the roll bar is in the folded position.

•Use the handholds and running boards when getting on and off the tractor to help prevent accidental falls. Keep the running boards clear of mud and debris.

•Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes. Never operate the tractor in bare feet, sandals, or sneakers.
