Rollover Protective Structure (Rops) - New Holland TC21D Operator's Manual

SECTION 2 - OPERATION

Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS)

A Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS) and seat
belts are standard equipment on this tractor at the
time of factory assembly. If the ROPS was deleted by
the original purchaser or has been removed, it is
recommended that you equip your tractor with a
ROPS and seat belts.
ROPS are effective in reducing injuries in the event
of tractor overturn. Overturning a tractor without a
ROPS installed can result in serious injury or death.
The Rollover Protective Structure and seat belts are
available from your New Holland Dealer.

Additionally, the safety offered by the ROPS and seat
3
belt is minimized if your seat belt is not buckled.
Always use your seat belt: it can save your life.
WARNING
Do not operate the tractor with the rollover
protective structure folded as a standard
operating mode. A folded ROPS does not provide
rollover protection.
Always wear the seat belt when the tractor is
equipped with a ROPS. However, if the ROPS has
been removed from the tractor, or if the ROPS is
in the folded position, the seat belt should not be
used.
