SAFETY

Only mount the loader on a tractor that is listed on the mounting instructions. Never mount on a tricycle steering front axle. Move the tractor front and rear wheels to the widest spacing and add the recommended rear tractor ballast to prevent tractor tip over. Keep the tractor tires properly inflated. Maintain at least 25% of the total Tractor and Loader weight including the maximum load in the bucket or attachment on the rear axle. Always wear your seatbelt and make sure the ROPS structure is fully deployed to prevent serious injury or death from the tractor tipping over.

Carry the loader and attachment low when transporting to reduce the potential of the tractor tipping over. Transport on slopes only at slow speeds and use gradual turning angles. Tractor wheel contact with any wash out, drop off or ground obstruction with a raised loader could result in the tractor tipping over and causing serious injury.

Do not work from the loader or attachments. Do now allow any riders on the loader, tractor or attachments. Falling off the loader could result in serious injury and/or tractor run over. (SL-14)
