TION

3.1 Boarding the Tractor

Use both hands and equipped handrails and steps for support when boarding the tractor. Never use control

levers for support when mounting the tractor. Seat yourself in the operator’s seat and secure the seat belt

around you.

Never allow passengers to ride on the tractor or attached equipment. Riders can easily fall off and be

seriously injured or killed from falling off and being ran over. It is the operator’s responsibility to forbid all extra

riders at all times. OPS-U- 0008

Never allow children to operate, ride on, or come close to the Tractor or

Implement. Usually, 16-17 year-old children who are mature and

responsible can operate the implement with adult supervision, if they

have read and understand the Operator’s Manuals, been trained in

proper operation of the tractor and Implement, and are physically large

enough to reach and operate the controls easily.

(SG-11)

Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.

Falling off can result in serious injury or death.

(SG-10)

Do not mount or dismount the Tractor while the tractor is moving. Mount

the Tractor only when the Tractor and all moving parts are completely

stopped.

(SG-12)

3.2 Dismounting the Tractor

Before dismounting, park the tractor and implement on a reasonably level surface, apply the parking brake,

idle the engine down, disengage the PTO, and lower the implement to the ground. Shut down the tractor

engine according to the operator’s manual, remove the key, and wait for all motion to completely stop. Never

leave the seat until the tractor, its engine and all moving parts have come to a complete stop.

Use hand rails and steps when exiting the tractor. Be careful of your step and use extra caution when mud,

ice, snow or other matter has accumulated on the steps or hand rails. Use all handrails and steps for support

and never rush or jump off the tractor. OPS-U- 0009

BEFORE leaving the tractor seat, always set the parking brake and/or set

the tractor transmission in parking gear, disengage the PTO, stop the

engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop. Place the

tractor shift lever into a low range or parking gear to prevent the tractor

from rolling. Never dismount a Tractor that is moving or while the engine

is running. Operate the Tractor controls from the tractor seat only.
