  • Page 22 Avoid holes, ditches and obstructions which may cause tractor, cart or seeding tool to roll over, especially on hillsides. Avoid sharp turns on hillsides. Slow down when turning or traveling over rough ground, and when turning on inclines. Shut off tractor and shift to ‘Park’ or set brakes when leaving tractor. Remove key when leaving tractor unattended.
  • Page 23 Wear Protective Clothing Wear close fitting clothing and safety equipment appropriate to the job. Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the operator.
