CAUTION: Watch out for low tree
limbs and other overhead objects which
may interfere with the snow cab.
CAUTION: This cab provides foul
weather protection only. It does not
provide protection against exhaust
fumes, collision, rollover or other acci­
dents.
CAUTION: Never transport the tractor in
an open truck or open trailer while the
snow cab is attached.
Check the area of operation thoroughly before
using the tractor with the snow cab. The added
height of the snow cab and a reduced field of
vision require extra caution during operation.
Unfasten the elastic hooks on one side of the snow
cab to get on or off the tractor.
Operate outside controls on a snowthrower or
snow blade through the access flaps in the sides of
the canopy.
Remove the upper snow cab frame and canopy
before you transport the tractor in an open truck or
open trailer.
