Starting The Tractor - RHINO 2409 Operator's Manual

Before dismounting the tractor and loader lower the loader to the ground or
onto solid support blocks. Engage the loader valve travel lock to prevent
inadvertent movement of the valve controls causing the loader to suddenly
move and drop. Sudden dropping of the loader and attachment could
result in serious injury.
Before dismounting, park the tractor and implement on a reasonably level surface, apply the parking brake,
idle the engine down, disengage the PTO, and lower the implement to the ground. Shut down the tractor
engine according to the operator's manual, remove the key, and wait for all motion to completely stop. Never
leave the seat until the tractor, its engine and all moving parts have come to a complete stop.
Use hand rails and steps when exiting the tractor. Be careful of your step and use extra caution when mud,
ice, snow or other matter has accumulated on the steps or hand rails. Use all handrails and steps for support
and never rush or jump off the tractor. OPS-L- 0024
