8.OPERATING THE TRACTOR

DANGER

ALWAYS use the drawbar to tow an implement. NEVER attach a load to the axle housing.

WARNING

ALWAYS decrease tractor speed before turning, when traveling on a rough terrain or before stopping to prevent roll-over.

Do not attempt to turn with the differential lock engaged. Attempting to turn the tractor while the differential lock is engaged can lead to a roll-over.

ALWAYS stay clear of ditches, holes, embankments or ponds. A roll-over can occur more easily if the ground is soft or wet. Before entering an area covered with tall grass, walk the area to detect any obstacles.

ALWAYS be extremely sure of the current travel direction and avoid obstacles. Remain alert when approaching the end of a row, trees or any obstacle.

ALWAYS maintain good communication with all others working in the same area before and during operation of the tractor.

Do not get in or out of the moving tractor.

Accident Hazard

ALWAYS remain alert to behaviors of children when operating the tractor because they are usually very curious about moving machines.

ALWAYS remember that a child may have moved from a point where he/she was last viewed.

ALWAYS keep children off the work area, and a person other than the operator should always watch them.

If any child enters the current work area, stop your tractor immediately.

NEVER allow a child to ride the moving tractor. He/ she may tamper the controls or can fall off the tractor and be run over by the tractor.

NEVER allow children to operate the tractor.

NEVER allow a child to play on the tractor or implement.

ALWAYS be extremely careful when backing the tractor up. Before backing up, look back and below the tractor. A child may be on your path.
