TO THE OWNER/OPERATOR/DEALER

To keep your implement running efficiently and safely, read your manual thoroughly

and follow these directions and the Safety Messages in this Manual. The Table of

Contents clearly identifies each section where you can easily find the information you

need.

The OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT (1928.51 Subpart C) makes

these minimum safety requirements of tractor operators:

REQUIRED OF THE OWNER:

1. Provide a Roll-Over-Protective Structure that meets the requirements of

this Standard; and

2. Provide Seatbelts that meet the requirements of this paragraph of this

Standard and SAE J4C; and

3. Ensure that each employee uses such Seatbelt while the tractor is moving;

and

4. Ensure that each employee tightens the Seatbelt sufficiently to confine the

employee to the protected area provided by the ROPS.

REQUIRED OF THE OPERATOR

1. Securely fasten seatbelt if the tractor has a ROPS.

2. Where possible, avoid operating the tractor near ditches, embankments,

and holes.

3. Reduce speed when turning, crossing slopes, and on rough, slick, or

muddy surfaces.

4. Stay off slopes too steep for safe operation.

5. Watch where you are going especially at row ends, on roads, and around

trees.

6. Do not permit others to ride.

7. Operate the tractor smoothly no jerky turns, starts, or stops.

8. Hitch only to the drawbar and hitch points recommended by the tractor

manufacturer.

9. When the tractor is stopped, set brakes securely and use park lock, if

available.

Keep children away from danger all day, every day...

Equip tractors with rollover protection (ROPS)

and keep all machinery guards in place...

Please work, drive, play and live each day with care

and concern for your safety and that of your family

and fellow citizens
