using the tractor.
WARNING: Before using the tractor, always check the state of the seat belt,
and, if any damage or wear is determined, immediately replace it!
WARNING: In case of lowered roll bar, the tractor must be on solid, level
ground with no incline or obstacles.

Roll bar offers suitable protection only if its construction is
intact.
If the roll bar or its construction is damaged due to tractor roll-
over or hitting an obstacle during driving, replace the roll bar.
Roll bar is not intended for towing, therefore, NEVER attach
chains or tow ropes, as you risk damaging the tractor or even
rolling it over.
SAFETY CABIN (ROPS –roll-over protective structure)
Safety cabin, installed on the tractor, meets safety requirements according to European guidelines.
Safety cabin protects/reduces danger of driver injuries in case of tractor roll-over, only if the
driver follows all safety instructions and also uses a safety belt.
Do not change or modify the safety cabin, do not cut, drill or weld its construction.
If you install additional equipment in the safety cabin, consult qualified persons, who will provide
the necessary information.
If the safety cabin or its construction is damaged in tractor roll-over or if you have bumped an
obstacle during driving, it must be replaced!
WARNING: Do not change or modify the roll bar, do not cut, drill,
straighten or weld its construction, as this reduces its level of safety.
WARNING: Do not use the tractor in environment where there is possible
danger of falling objects, even if the tractor has an installed cabin.
In such cases, use of special protective equipment is required (FOPS –falling
object protective structure and OPS –operator protective structure), which is
NOT CERTIFIED on the tractor!

2.6.3 STARTING THE TRACTOR UNDER SAFE CONDITIONS
Before using the tractor, always check that all safety devices (safety belt, roll bar…) are properly
installed (firmly fitted) and enable functionality.
Start the tractor only when sitting in the driver's seat.
Driver's seat enables rotation function according to desired driving direction (forward or reverse).
Turn the seat only when the tractor is turned off, NEVER during driving.
Familiarize yourself beforehand with all control elements, which must be in reach and always in
neutral position until using or starting the tractor.
Do not start the engine by short-circuiting the starter, because
the tractor can drive off unexpectedly, if in gear.
Before using the tractor, driver's space must be tidy and ensure
optimal field of view, without restrictions.
If there is a cabin installed on the tractor, all windows must be clean
before use.
NEVER leave the tractor running in closed spaces or spaces with poor
ventilation. Exhaust fumes, such as CO (carbon monoxide), are
potentially extremely dangerous to your health, therefore, always ensure
adequate ventilation.
Be careful, when refuelling the tractor. Turn the tractor engine off
and wait for it to cool down before refuelling the fuel tank in a well
ventilated area.
Malfunction can be a cause of fire, therefore, do not smoke while
working and make sure that there is no open flame or sparks in the
area. In case of spillage, it is mandatory to wipe the spilled fuel.
Do not fill the fuel tank to the top due to fuel expansion, which
depends on the temperature.
WARNING: Never start the tractor, when you are standing beside it!

2.6.4 STOPPING THE TRACTOR UNDER SAFE CONDITIONS
Before stepping out of the tractor or leaving it without control, heed to the following safety measures:
Always lower the three-point hitch;
If you have installed carried equipment, always lower it to the ground;
Move all control elements to neutral position;
Activate handbrake and turn off tractor engine;
Shift to first gear and remove the key.
2.6.5 WORKING WITH TRACTOR
Do not begin work until making sure that there are no unauthorized persons in the machine's work
area.
Each unauthorized person, riding on part of the tractor, which is not explicitly designed for that,
can:
obe hurt or can have an accident (falling off the tractor),
ocan have an effect on the driver during tractor use,
ochange tractor's barycentre,
oobstruct driver's overview and can have an effect on unreliable working conditions on it.
Safe work with the tractor requires complete attention of the operator, therefore:
DO NOT listen to music with headphones during work;
DO NOT use your phone during work;
Set the installed additional equipment in the cabin beforehand.
Make sure that you and persons in your area are careful when moving
around rotating tractor parts.
All moving parts (shafts, joints, cylinders, belts etc.) must have protection, which prevents
clothing or any body part getting entangled.
NEVER remove protection from moving parts!
WARNING: Do not allow unauthorized persons to approach the tractor.
WARNING: Driving unauthorized persons on the tractor is prohibited!
WARNING: Entanglement with rotating part can cause serious or even fatal
injury!

2.6.6 USING THE TRACTOR WITH INSTALLED WEIGHTS
When using the tractor with installed weights, required by circumstances, certain measures must be taken,
especially the ones regarding safety.
Unevenly installed weights significantly affect tractor balance, therefore, always install weights in
symmetry, according to type of fitted implement and surface type, where the work is carried out;
If you weigh the tractor down with water in tyres, do this only if you are qualified for such work,
otherwise, leave this to qualified persons;
When using water weights in tyres in the winter, add antifreeze to water;
When driving with heavy or long implements, always weigh the tractor down at the front;
Do not overload the tractor with weight or do not exceed its maximum determined weight;
When disconnecting implement from the tractor, always also remove weights to prevent tractor
instability, reduce wear of vital parts and increase functionality.
2.7 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AFTER USING THE TRACTOR
When you have finished using the tractor or parked it for a longer period of inactivity, perform general
measures regarding safety.
Park the tractor on level and solid ground, under covered area or at least with
option of covering in a way that does not represent potential danger or
hindrance.
Stop the tractor safely, as described in the chapter "LEAVING THE
TRACTOR", and prevent other persons to access control elements in the
driver's space.
Disconnect negative (-) pole from the battery. To prevent electrolyte freezing,
disconnect the battery from the tractor for the winter period and store it at
suitable room temperature.
2.8 USING THE TRACTOR ON SLOPES
Avoid working with the tractor on uneven ground, slopes or banks. Be very carefully when
driving near ditches or holes.
When driving on a slope, do not shift into neutral position and do not press the clutch pedal.
When driving on a slope, always use suitable speed with suitable gear, especially when driving
heavier loads or work implements. Do not drive or stop abruptly and avoid sudden turns to prevent
the tractor from rolling over.
Connect towed implement or trailer only to original
tractor connection.
Make sure that the towed implement is always lighter
than the tractor.
