Page 9: Safety Rules
— For full use of the MX loader, the tractor must be fitted with a structure to protect against falling objects. If this is not the case, there are limits on the use of the MX loader (see the "LOADER USE LIMITS" section). CAUTION: the protective fitting must be in active position while working. -
Page 10: Ppe Table (Personal Protective Equipment)
If the tractor is not fitted with a structure protecting against falling loads, the driver is exposed to constant risk when handling loads. If the tractor is fitted with a roll cage only, the loader must be equipped with a parallelogram. Reminder: only implements recommended by the MX loader manufacturer may be used.
