•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.

•Use only accessories approved for this machine by the manufacturer. Read, understand and follow all instructions provided with the approved accessory.

•Before starting the tractor, engage the parking brake, place the PTO switch in the "OFF" position, place the lift control lever in the down position, and make certain any remote control valve levers are in the neutral position.

•Always sit in the tractor seat when starting the engine or operating controls. Do not start the engine or operate controls while standing beside the tractor.

•Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly. Contact your Cub Cadet dealer if safety devices malfunction.
