2.1 ROPS and Seat Belt
The tractor must be equipped with a Roll-Over-Protective-Structure (ROPS) (tractor cab or roll-bar) and seat belt to
protect the operator from falling off the tractor, especially during a roll over where the driver could be crushed and
killed. Only operate the tractor with the ROPS in the raised position and seat belt fastened. Tractor models not
equipped with a ROPS and seat belt should have these life saving features installed by an authorized tractor
dealer.
Operate this Equipment only with a Tractor equipped with an approved roll-over-protective
system (ROPS). Always wear seat belts. Serious injury or even death could result from
falling off the Tractor--particularly during a turnover when the operator could be pinned under
the ROPS.
