measures by grounding the implement, removing
the key, applying the parking brakes, and chocking
the wheels securely.
(8) Keep inflammable away from the engine during
operation. Especially during stationary operation do
not operate the engine at high speeds so as not to
set fire to grass or straw with a heated exhaust pipe
or exhaust fumes.
(9) When you have to operate the tractor at night, make
sure of the location of the control levers and pedals.
If not, the tractor might work unexpectedly by
mistake.
LOADING ONTO OR UNLOADING FROM A TRUCK
(1) When loading the tractor onto a truck or a trailer,
turn off the truck`s engine and apply the parking
brakes to the truck or the trailer.
Otherwise, the truck could move and the tractor falls
to the ground.
(2) Pay sufficient attention to the safety conditions
around the tractor and have it guided by someone
to assist the operation. Never allow other persons to
approach the tractor, especially in front of or behind it.
(3) When loading or unloading the machine on/off a
truck, set slip-proof ramps at the same angles and
drive the tractor straight at sufficiently slow speeds.
Loading the tractor in reverse travel and unloading
it in forward travel.
(4) Never depress the brake pedal during loading or
unloading operation, or the tractor may shift side-
ways, which may cause it to fall of the ramps.
(5) If the engine stalls unexpectedly on the ramps,
depress the brake pedal immediately and roll the
tractor to the ground by manipulating the brake pedal.
Start the engine on the ground and try again.
(6) When the machine is loaded on the truck, stop the
engine, apply parking brakes, and withdraw the
stator key, chock the wheels, and rope it securely to
the truck. During transportation, do not make sharp
turns needlessly so as not to shift the loaded tractor.
(7) Use ramps with the same or better specifications

(8) Hook the ramps securely on the platform of the trac
tor with the top of the ramp level with the platform.
(9) Always prepare for even the worst, by never
allowing other persons near the tractor.
(10) Drive the tractor carefully at the moment the tractor
moves from the ramps onto the platform, for it
changes angle abruptly.
DURING OPERATION
(1) During operation, never allow other persons in the
vicinity of the tractor, because the tractor itself or
flung pieces may cause injury.
(2) Pay attention to safety around the tractor to
avoid injury to bystanders or damage to property.
Especially when operating with other persons, use
the horn to warn them.
(3) When crossing a ditch or a levee or when passing
through soft land, drive the tractor slowly and
straight so that it dose not slip or turn over.
(4) Do not touch dangerous parts such as rotating
parts, moving parts, hot parts (muffler, radiator, or
engine, etc.), or electric parts (battery terminals and
other live parts), or you may be injured seriously.
(5) If you use a trailer, use a proper one which suits
your tractor. Using an improper trailer may cause
serious accidents. Never attempt to haul beyond

(6) When moving the machine toward an implement
for the purpose if installing the implement, never
allow any one to stand in between. When installing
the implement on the machine, be prepare to
move away promptly in the event of an emergency.
The brakes should be applied securely during
installation.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
(1) When servicing the tractor or mounting or dismount-
ing an implement, place the tractor on level,
hard ground which is sufficiently illuminated, or
unexpected accidents may occur.
(2) When servicing the tractor, follow the instructions
listed below:
・Stop the engine.
・Apply parking brakes.
・Disengage all PTO.
・Place all gear shift levers in neutral.
・Remove the starter key.
・Lower the implement fully, if equipped.
If not, your hands or clothes may be caught or
sandwiched between.
(3) When servicing the tractor, use proper tools.
Using makeshift tools may lead to injuries or poor
servicing, which may result in unexpected accidents
during operation.
(4) The engine, muffler, radiator, etc. are very hot
just after operation, so wait until they cool down
sufficiently to avoid burns.
(5) Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is
hot or running. Wait until the engine cools down and
then relieve the radiator pressure by releasing the
radiator cap. Carelessly pouring cooling water into
the heated radiator can cause serious damage to
the radiator and the engine. Careless removal of
the radiator cap can cause serious injury because
of overheated water vapour.
(6) Never fit unauthorized implements or attempt unau-
thorized modification.
(7) Be sure to reinstall the removed safety covers in
place as exposed dangerous parts may cause seri-
ous injury.
(8) Avoid high-pressure fluids. Escaping fluid under pres-
sure can penetrate the skin and cause serious injury, so
keep hands and body away from pin holes and nozzles
ejecting such fluids. Be sure to consult your dealer
about the hydraulic and fuel injection system trouble.
When checking for leaks, use a piece of cardboard
or wood without fail. If any hydraulic fluid is injected
accidentally into the skin, it must be removed within a
few hours by a doctor familiar with this type or injury.
FIG. 1-20
FIG. 1-21

TJ75

(9) When servicing wheels and tires, the tractor and/or
implement must be supported on suitable blocks or
stands. Not a hydraulic jack.
Do not attempt to service a tire unless you have the
proper equipment and experience to perform the job.
Have the work carried out by your ISEKI dealer or a
qualified repair service.
When seating tire beads onto rims, never exceed
the maximum inflation specifications specified on the
tire.Inflation beyond this maximum pressure may
brake the bead, or even the rim, with dangerous,
explosive force.
If tire have deep scratches, cuts or punctures, the
replaced by qualified personnel as soon as possible.
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves, eye/face
protection.
STORAGE
(1) Never cover a hot machine just after operation with
a tarpaulin or the like, or the heated engine and
related parts may cause a fire.
(2) Before storing the tractor for a long period of time,
disconnect the battery cables to prevent them, in
case they are gnawed by a rat, from causing a short
circuit, which may lead to a fire. When disconnecting
the cables, disconnect the negative (-) cable first.
(3) Safe storage of dangerous objects
・When storing dangerous implements, take appro-
priate safety measures to prevent accidents by
covering with tarpaulin.
・Store fuel in a safe place with caution signs such
as PREVENT FIRE or INFLAMMABLE.
・All inflammable must also be stored in a safe,
fireresistant location.
FIG. 1-22

SAFETY

MAINTENANCE OF THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM
TO MAINTENACE ELECTRIC WIRING
(1) When servicing the electric wiring, stop the engine
without fail. Otherwise your hands or clothes may
be caught in or sandwiched between rotating parts.
(2) Before manipulating electric parts, be sure to
disconnect the earth battery cable (-), or you may
get an electric shock or be injured by sparks.
(3) Loose electric terminals or connectors may not only
lower electrical performance but also cause short
circuit or leakage of electricity, which may lead to a
fire. Promptly repair or replace damaged wiring.
(4) Remove chaff of dust from the battery, wiring,
muffler, or engine. Otherwise it could result a fire.
TO HANDLE THE BATTERY
(1) When working around the battery, avoid smoking.
The battery generates explosive hydrogen and oxy
gen gases when it is being charged.
Keep the battery away from sparks or open flames.
(2) The battery should be inspected before starting the
engine. Be careful not to touch the electrolyte when
removing the vent plugs. If the battery electrolyte
makes contact with the skin or clothing, wash it off
immediately with water and then consult a doctor.
(3) When replacing or inspecting the battery, stop the
engine and turn the main switch off, or electrical
parts may be damaged or unexpected accident may
occur.
When disconnecting the battery cables, disconnect
the earth cable (-) first without fail. When connecting
the battery cables, connect the positive cable (+) first.
Disconnecting or connecting in wrong order may lead to
a short circuit or sparks.

TO HANDLE BOOSTER CABLES
When using booster cables, pay attention to the
following items for safe operation:
(1) Before connecting cables, remove the vent plugs.
This will lower the force in case of explosion.
(2) Before connecting cables, be sure to stop the engine.
Otherwise unexpected accidents may occur.
(3) Use booster cables with sufficient electrical capacity.
A cable of inadequate capacity will cause generation
of heat, which may lead to a fire.
SAFETY DECALS
The labels are stuck on the tractor. You should of course
read the safety instructions in the manual. But never fail
to read the labels on the machine as well.
・The labels should always be clearly seen, that is,
nothing should obscure them.
・When they have become dirty, wash them with
soap water and wipe off with soft cloth.
・If any of them are torn or lost, order new labels
from your dealer. Their codes are mentioned in
SAFETY DECALS AND THEIR LOCATION.
・A new label should be placed in the same place
where the old one was located.
・When sticking on a new label, clean the place to
enable the label to stick and squeeze out all air
bubbles trapped under it.
