ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
A WARNING
It is recommended that power unit be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS systems in “locked up” posi- tion at all times.
Refer to “Mounting Guide” (available from your dealer) for some tractors not originally equipped with 1” diameter pins.
A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment weight must be on tractor front wheels with back- hoe in transport position. Without this weight, trac- tor could tip over, causing personal injury or death. The weight may be attained with a loader, front wheel weights, ballast in tires, or front tractor weights. When attaining the minimum 20% weight on the front wheels, you must not exceed the Roll Over Protection Structure (ROPS) weight certifica- tion. Weigh the tractor and equipment. Do not esti- mate.
Read instructions before starting assembly. You will save yourself assembly time.
