SAFE OPERATION SAFE OPERATION Careful operation is your best insurance against an accident. Read and understand this manual carefully before operating the tractor. All operators, no matter how much experience they may have, should read this and other related manuals before operating the tractor or any implement attached to it. It is the owner's obligation to instruct all operators in safe operation. Follow the safe operating procedures specified in the implement or attachment manual.
SAFE OPERATION machine may start in gear and move if the normal starting circuitry is bypassed. • Do not operate or idle the engine in an unventilated area. Carbon monoxide gas is colorless, odorless, and deadly. • Check that the operator presence control (OPC) system is functioning correctly before each time you use the tractor. Test the safety systems. (See Checking engine start system on page 116.) Do not operate unless they are functioning correctly.
SAFE OPERATION • Always sit in the operator's seat when operating levers or controls. • Do not stand between tractor and implement or trailed vehicle unless both parking brakes are applied. • Do not operate the tractor when there is a possibility of lightning. Even if the tractor is equipped with a CAB, the operator is not protected from lightning. 3. Instructional seat (if equipped) • Always wear your seat belt and stabilize your body by holding the handrail on the CAB frame.
SAFE OPERATION (1) Brake pedal (LH) (2) Brake pedal (RH) (3) Brake pedal lock (A) “Lock the brake pedals whenever traveling on the road” • Check the front wheel engagement. The braking characteristics are different between 2 and 4-wheel drive. Be aware of the difference and use carefully. • When driving down a slope, ensure that the 4wheel drive is engaged to increase traction (if equipped). • Always slow down the tractor before turning. Turning at high speed may tip over the tractor.
SAFE OPERATION (1) PTO shaft cover (2) PTO shaft cap (A) “NORMAL POSITION” (B) “RAISED POSITION” • Before installing or using PTO driven equipment, read the manufacturer's manual and review the safety labels attached to the equipment. • When operating stationary PTO driven equipment, always apply both of the tractor's parking brakes and place chocks behind and in front of the rear wheels. Stay clear of all rotating parts. Never step over rotating parts.
SAFE OPERATION • Securely support the tractor when either changing wheels or adjusting the wheel tread width. • Make sure that wheel bolts have been tightened to the specified torque. • Disconnect the battery's ground cable and stop the engine to avoid the possibility of the machine runaway due to 4WD braking system during testing, service or repair with only rear wheels off the ground. • Do not work under any hydraulically supported devices. They can settle, suddenly leak down, or be accidentally lowered.
