Tractor And Mower Controls Safety Test

Start the tractor following the specific procedures in the manufacturer’s operator’s manual. These procedures normally include:

—Fasten and adjust seat belt on your ROPS-equipped tractor.

—Check parking brake for engagement.

—Check PTO disengagement.

—Check all controls for Park position.

—Warn others in area before starting tractor.

—Start tractor following tractor manufacturer’s recommended starting procedures.

WARNING! Avoid serious injury or death from unexpected machine movement. Start the engine only from the operator’s position. Never attempt to start the engine by shorting across starter terminals or reaching the key from the ground or outside the cab.

After starting:

—Check all instruments, gauges and indicator lights for normal operation.

—Check all tractor controls, steering and brakes for proper function.

—Raise and lower mower to check for driveline bottoming out or engagement problems.

Prepare For Safe Operation

—Use proper equipment shut down practices before inspecting equipment. Wait until all equipment motion has stopped before dismounting the tractor or mower.

—Do not operate mower unless tractor and mower are running properly. Place a “Do Not Operate” tag on the machine, remove the key and do not operate the mower until the problem is corrected.

Power Takeoff System

Be sure to operate the tractor at the mower’s rated PTO rpm speed.

When operating tractors with transmission-driven PTO systems, a rotary mower will have a significant flywheel effect. The mower may continue to propel a tractor with a transmission-driven PTO system.

The tractor should be equipped and operated as follows:

—Install a driveline equipped with an over-running clutch.

—Give yourself sufficient maneuvering room and time by anticipating turns, stops and speed reductions.
