Make sure the tractor and machine are in the proper
operating condition according to the operators manuals.
Make sure the tractor brakes and the machine brakes, if
equipped, are adjusted correctly.
The tractor must have enough weight and braking
capacity, especially when operating on roads and terrain
that is not even. Use a tractor of recommended size and
weight to tow the machine. See Specifications for the
minimum tractor size and weight.

(ROPS), and a seat belt. Use seat belt during operation.
Do not dismount from moving machinery.
Always operate the machine with the control console
turned on.
Never start the tractor with PTO engaged or control

Where possible avoid operating the machine near
ditches, embankments and holes. Reduce speed when
turning, crossing slopes, and on rough, slippery, or muddy
surfaces.
Stay off slopes too steep for operation.
Be aware of the size of the equipment and have enough
space available to allow for operation.
Do not stand between the tractor and the implement to
install the hitch pin when the tractor engine is running.
