SAFE OPERATION
Careful operation is your best insurance against an
accident.
Read and understand this manual carefully before
operating the tractor.
All operators, no matter how much experience they may
have, should read this and other related manuals before
operating the tractor or any implement attached to it. It is
the owner's obligation to instruct all operators in safe
operation.
1. Know your equipment and its limitations. Read this
entire manual before attempting to start and operate
the tractor.
2. Pay special attention to the danger, warning and
caution labels on the tractor.
3. KUBOTA recommends the use of a CAB or Roll Over
Protective Structures (ROPS) and seat belt in almost
all applications. This combination will reduce the risk
of serious injury or death, should the tractor be upset.
If the CAB or ROPS is loosened or removed for any
reason, make sure that all parts are reinstalled
correctly before operating the tractor.
Never modify or repair a CAB or ROPS because
welding, bending, drilling, grinding, or cutting may
weaken the structure.
A damaged CAB or ROPS structure must be replaced,
not repaired or revised. If any structural member of the
CAB or ROPS is damaged, replace the entire structure
at your local KUBOTA Dealer.
4. Always use the seat belt if the tractor has a CAB or
ROPS. Do not use the seat belt if there is no CAB or
ROPS. Check the seat belt regularly and replace if
frayed or damaged.
5. Do not operate the tractor or any implement attached
to it while under the influence of alcohol, medication,
controlled substances or while fatigued.
6. Carefully check the vicinity before operating tractor or
any implement attached to it. Check for overhead
clearance which may interfere with a CAB or ROPS.
Do not allow any bystanders around or near tractor
during operation.
7. Before allowing other people to use your tractor,
explain how to operate and have them read this
manual before operation.
8. Never wear loose, torn, or bulky clothing around
tractor. It may catch on moving parts or controls,
leading to the risk of an accident. Use additional safety
items, e.g. hard hat, safety boots or shoes, eye and
hearing protection, gloves, etc., as appropriate or
required.
9. Do not allow passengers to ride on any part of the
tractor at anytime. The operator must remain in the
tractor seat during operation.
10.Check brakes, clutch, linkage pins and other
mechanical parts for improper adjustment and wear.
Replace worn or damaged parts promptly. Check the
tightness of all nuts and bolts regularly. (For further
details, see "MAINTENANCE" section.)
11.Keep your tractor clean. Dirt, grease, and trash build
up may contribute to fires and lead to personal injury.
12.Use only implements meeting the specifications listed
under "IMPLEMENT LIMITATIONS" in this manual or
implements approved by KUBOTA.
13.Use proper weights on the front or rear of the tractor to
reduce the risk of upsets. When using the front loader,
put an implement or ballast on the 3-point hitch to
improve stability. Follow the safe operating
procedures specified in the implement or attachment
manual.
