Read and observe the following instructions with particular care:
- Only use the machine for the usage intended by the manufacturer and indicated in this manual.
- Use the tractor safely.
- Connect implements correctly. Don't use non-approved or incorrectly installed implements and
accessories. may result in overturning caused when the implement or accessory detaches from the
tractor.
- Ensure that the three point linkage meets the requirements of ISO 730 standards.
- Check that the speed and dimensions of the power take off on the tractor are correct for the con-
nected implement.
- Read the specific instruction manual provided with the implement thoroughly before operating an
implement connected to the tractor. The tractor is a tool that may be used in a variety of different
configurations. It would not be possible to provide comprehensive safety information in this manual
encompassing ever possible configuration of the machine.
- Before using the tractor for towing or stump-pulling, check carefully that the draft force setting is
correct. When using the machine for pulling stumps in particular, the machine may overturn if the
stump fails to yield from the soil.
- When lifting weights with a front loader or with the rear three point linkage, the centre of gravity of
the tractor may raise. In these conditions, the risk of sudden overturning is increased.
- Only leave the driver seat and alight from the tractor after doing the following:
- Set the gear lever to neutral.
- Engage the parking brake and, if applicable, the park lock.
- Disengage the PTO (unless the specific implement connected requires the PTO to remain
running).
- Lower any implements connected to the machine to the ground.
- Especially when in restricted spaces, make sure that there are no persons in the vicinity of the ma-
chine when manoeuvring.
- Inform all persons in the vicinity that they must leave and keep out of the work area before starting
work. When working, there is a risk of being hit by objects expelled by the implement connected to
the tractor (rotary mowers, rotary harrows etc.).
- Take particular care when working near roads or pathways. Objects may be projected out of the
work area and hit passers-by. Stop and wait for the area to clear before continuing work.
- Nobody other than the operator is allowed on the tractor. Do not allow other persons to climb
onto the cab access ladder while the tractor is moving. In addition to limiting the driver's field of view,
there is also a risk of the person carried falling off the tractor.
- Keep at a safe distance from the work area of implements. Keep out of the space between the ma-
chine and the implement or towed vehicle when using the external lift controls. Ensure that there
are no unauthorised persons in the work area.
- The tractor is equipped with software which controls a number of its safety functions. Never tamper
with these functions for any reason or load software onto the system that is not certified by the
constructor. Non certified software may compromise the functions of the tractor. Non certified sof-
tware may cause abnormal tractor behaviour, reducing both performance and safety. Any procedure
concerning the software must only be performed by your dealer.
- Certain safety functions are controlled by sensors. These sensors must be in proper working order
for the safety functions to be effective.
- The tractor is equipped with a single driver seat only and is therefore only intended to be operated
by one user at a time.
