SAFETY CAB
A safety cab incorporating a Roll Over Protective
Structure (ROPS) and safety belt were standard
equipment for the tractor at time of factory assem-
bly. The safety belt, when used by the operator,
maximizes the protection offered by the ROPS.
WARNING: ALWAYS USE YOUR SAFETY
BELT WITH THE CAB/ROPS TO PREVENT
BEING THROWN FROM THE TRACTOR IN
THE EVENT OF A ROLLOVER. SAFETY BELTS
SAVE LIVES WHEN THEY ARE USED.
Information regarding the safety cab/Roll Over
Protective Structure and safety belt are available
from your authorized Buhler Versatile dealer.
ROPS Maintenance and Inspection
After the first 50 hours of operation and every
1500 hours of operation (or yearly, whichever
comes first):
1. Check the torque of the cab/ROPS mounting
bolts, as detailed in the lubrication and
maintenance section of this manual.
2. Check the operator’s seat mounting bolts and
the safety belt mounting bolts. Tighten the
seat mounting bolts to 40 N⋅m (30 ft. lbs.).
Replace any worn or damaged parts.
Damage to the Cab/ROPS
If the tractor has rolled over or the cab/ROPS has
been damaged (such as striking an overhead ob-
ject during transport), it must be replaced to pro-
vide the original protection.
After an accident, check for damage to the cab/
ROPS, operator’s seat, safety belt and safety belt
mountings. Before you operate the tractor, re-
place all damaged parts.
