Seat Belt Precautions - New Holland L213 Operator's Manual

Seat belt precautions

Seat belts
Seat belts must be worn at all times.
Seat belt inspection and maintenance:
• Keep seat belts in good condition.
• Keep sharp edges and items than can cause damage
away from the belts.
• Periodically check belts, buckles, retractors, tethers,
slack take-up system, and mounting bolts for damage
and wear.
• Replace all parts that have damage or wear.
• Replace belts that have cuts that can make the belt
weak.
WARNING
Avoid injury!
Before starting the engine, securely fasten the
seat belt. The seat belt can help ensure your
safety if it is properly used and maintained.
Never wear a seat belt loosely or with slack
in the belt system. Never wear the belt if it
is twisted or pinched between the seat struc-
tures.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
1. Pull the seat belt retractable half (1) across and buckle
securely with the buckle half (2).
2. A shoulder belt (3) is available from your dealer. Some
machine configurations are equipped with a shoulder
belt.
NOTE: State or Local regulations may require a
7.6 cm (3 in) webbing seat belt available through
Dealer Service Parts. This belt may be necessary in
some industrial applications. Check your local codes.
2 - SAFETY INFORMATION
• Check that bolts are tight on the seat bracket or mount-
ing.
• If belt is attached to seat, make sure seat or seat brack-
ets are mounted securely.
• Keep seat belts clean and dry.
• Clean belts only with soap solution and warm water.
• Do not use bleach or dye on the belts because this can
make the belts weak.
