OPERATION

OPERATION

To ensure tractor stability when operating add wheel ballast or rear weights to rear tractor tires. For better stability, use tractor with wide front axle rather than tricycle front wheels. Move wheels to the tractor manufacturer’s widest recommended settings to increase stability. If 3-Point hitch counterweights are used, they should be carried as low as possible at all times to maximize stability. Effective counterbalance weight at rear axle of mounted rear equipment is determined by multiplying actual weight of equipment by 1.50.

EXAMPLE: Equipment weighing 800 pounds, attached to tractor, multiplied by 1.50, equals 1200 pounds of effective counterbalance weight at rear axle.

A tractor that does not meet this criteria is DANGEROUS and should not be operated as upset of the unit can occur resulting in possible serious injury and property damage. OPS-L- 0001_A

4. Getting On and Off the Tractor

Do not mount or dismount the Tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount the Tractor only when the Tractor and all moving parts are completelystopped.

Before getting onto the tractor, the operator must read and completely understand the implement and tractor operator manuals. If any part of either manual is not completely understood, consult an authorized dealer for a complete explanation. OPS-L- 0022

4.1 Boarding the Tractor

Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
