WARNING
WARNING: Always wear the seat belt 
when operating the utility vehicle 
equipped with a OPS. However, if the OPS 
is not present or has been removed, the 
seat belt must not be used.
Use the following guidelines when using a utility vehicle 
equipped with a OPS:
1. Be aware of overhead clearances in the area of 
operation. Check for clearance of door (or gate) 
openings and other overhead objects such as utility 
lines and tree branches. Overhead objects could 
catch the OPS and upset the utility vehicle.
2. Do not modify the OPS by drilling holes for, or
welding accessories to the structure.
3. Do not use the OPS to pull objects with the utility
vehicle. Use ONLY the utility vehicle hitch for pulling.
4. In the event of an accident, have the OPS carefully
inspected and, if necessary, replaced by your Cub 
Cadet dealer. Do not attempt to repair the OPS.
Always wear the seat 
belt when operating 
the utility vehicle 
equipped with a OPS. 
However, if the OPS 
is not present or has 
been removed, the seat 
belt must not be used.
To help prevent
personal injury due
to loss of control or
tipping, always tow a
load slowly enough to
maintain control.
