Rops Damage - Zetor COMPAX CL Series Operator's Manual

ROPS damage

If the tractor has rolled over or the ROPS has been damaged (for example, by hitting a low overhead object
or during transport), the ROPS must be replaced to provide the guaranteed protection.
After an accident, check for damage on:
1. ROPS.
2. Seats
3. Seat belt and seat mountings.
Replace any damaged parts before operating the tractor.
Do not weld, drill or straighten the ROPS.
Warning: Never attach chains or ropes to the ROPS for towing; it will cause the tractor to roll
over. Always use the points specified on the tractor for towing. Be careful when driving through open
doors or under low overhead objects. Ensure sufficient overhead clearance for ROPS to avoid fatal
injuries.
Warning: When removing or replacing the ROPS, ensure that the correct fasteners are used to
replace the ROPS and that the fastening bolts are tightened to the recommended torque values.
Warning: If the tractor is equipped with ROPS, always use the seat belt.
