Safety Cab
A safety cab incorporates a Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS). Safety belts are standard fitted equipment for the tractor at the time of factory assembly. The safety belt, when used by the operator, maximizes the protection offered by the ROPS.
WARNING: ALWAYS USE YOU SAFETY BELT WITH THE CAB/ROPS TO PREVENT BEING THROWN FROM THE TRACTOR IN THE EVENT OF ROLLOVER. SAFETY BELTS SAVE LIVES WHEN THEY ARE USED.
Information regarding the safety cab/ROPS and safety belt are available from your authorized Buhler Versatile dealer.
ROPS Maintenance and Inspection
After the first 50 hours of operation and every 1500 of operation (or yearly, whichever comes first):
1.Check the torque of the cab/ROPS mounting bolts, as detailed in the lubrication and maintenance section of this manual.
2.Check the operators seat mounting bolts and safety belt mounting bolts. Tighten the seat mounting bolts to 40 N·m (30
Damage to the Cab/ROPS
If the tractor has rolled over or the cab has been damaged (such as striking an overhead object during transport), it must be replaced to provide the original protection.
IMPORTANT: Do not try to weld or straighten the cab/ROPS.
After an accident, check for damage to the cab/ROPS, operator’s seat, safety belt and safety belt mountings. Replace all damaged parts before operating the tractor.
WARNING: NEVER ATTACH, CHAINS, ROPES OR CABLES TO THE CAB/ROPS FOR PULLING PURPOSES. ALWAYS PULL FROM THE TRACTOR DRAWBAR. BE CAREFUL WHEN DRIVING THROUGH DOOR OPENINGS OR UNDER LOW OVERHEAD OBJECTS. MAKE SURE THERE IS SUFFICIENT OVERHEAD CLEARANCE FOR THE CAB/ROPS.
WARNING: IF THE CAB/ROPS IS REMOVED OR REPLACED, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE PROPER HARDWARE IS USED AND THE RECOMMENDED TORQUE VALUES ARE APPLIED TO THE ATTACHING BOLTS. SEE YOUR AUTHORIZED BUHLER VERSATILE DEALER.
