USER´S SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12

Recovery, pushing
zTo recover a tractor that has sunk in mud use a tow bar or rope attached to the front hook
Never use chains! Rupture of the chain represents a danger of death!
zDuring recovery it is dangerous to stand near the towing rope.
zIt is prohibited to use the tractor axles (individual wheels) as a winch for releasing a sunken tractor.
zThe front hook should be only use to recover the entire tractor, i.e. without any trailer or another
attached implement.
zNever recover the tractor with reduced gears engaged.
zWhen pushing other vehicles (trailers, implements, etc.) with the tractor never insert free wooden
blocks or bars between the tractor and the pushed vehicle.
Leaving the tractor
zPark the tractor only on an even land and where not possible, support with a shim assy.
zDo not park the tractor with an attached implement in the lifted position.
zUsually use the left-hand side tractor door when leaving the tractor. Look round whether any vehicle is
coming, that could jeopardize your safety when leaving the tractor.
zUse steps and handles when leaving the tractor. When leaving the tractor by the right-hand side door
pay attention being in space of shifting lever and hand throttle control.
zBrake the tractor with parking brake before leaving tractor with running engine.
zDo not forget to brake the tractor with parking brake (shift the gear), remove the key from key switch
and lock the cab before leaving the tractor.
zAt tractor equipped with reversor gear, shift the reversor lever into forward drive position.
With stopped engine only
zAll work connected with refuelling, cleaning, lubricating and adjusting the tractor or attached
implements may only be performed with the engine and moving parts of the tractor stopped except
functional checks of the brakes, hydraulic system and charging.
zBefore removing the side plates of the hood it is always necessary to stop the engine. The tractor
engine can only run in a closed building or room if sufficient ventilation is ensured. Exhaust gases are
harmful for health.
Fire prevention principles
zRefuel the tractor best after the end of work and with the engine stopped.
zDo not refill fuel up to the top of the fuel tank in summer. Wipe spilt fuel immediately.
zDo not refuel the tractor near open flame and do not smoke.
zDo not smoke and do not use open flame when inspecting the battery electrolyte level.
zMake sure that fire safety instructions are strictly observed in environments with an increased danger
of fire (hay-lofts, straw-stacks, etc.).
zThe tractors are not equipped with a fire extin
g
uisher from the production plant.
USER´S SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Health and environment protection
zThe tractors are not equipped with special filters of air aspirated to the cab. Therefore, they are not
designed for work with aerosols and other harmful substances.
zCoolant, brake liquid, kerosene, diesel fuel, mineral oil and other oil products that are used for the
operation and maintenance of the tractor may cause various skin disorders in case of direct contact
with your skin and can irritate mucous membranes, eyes, the digestive system and upper respiratory
ways. Some of them may even cause systemic poisoning when swallowed.
zPersons that handle oil products are obliged to strictly observe safety and hygienic regulations, use
suitable means of protection and work in well ventilated rooms.
Working with oil products
zAfter the end of work or before a meal you should wash yourself with a mild agent and treat your
hands with a suitable ointment or cream.
zWhen connecting and disconnection quick-couplers of the hydraulic circuits use any piece of cloth to
remove residual oil remaining in the socket or on the plug of the quick-coupler.
Waste disposal
zWhen disposing of the tractor or its parts (incl. operation liquids) after the end of their service life you
must observe relevant provisions of valid acts and implementation directives of these acts of the
country where the tractor is used. The last seller of the tractor is obliged in accordance with the Waste
Act to inform the consumer - during the sale of the tractor - about the way of collection of some used
parts of the tractor. This is the case of oil and other operation liquids, batteries and tyres. These used
products must be received from the consumer without any obligation of the consumer to pay for this
service.
Preventive daily maintenance
zPerform this maintenance daily or after every 8 - 10 hours of operation at the latest.

Tractors equipped with front end loader
Zetor Tractors in standard design are designed for utilization in agriculture and are not designed for special
purposes.
Tractors designed for operation within the European Union must be equipped, in case of using front end
loader, with a protective structure (FOPS - Falling Object Protective Structure) protecting drivers from
potential falling objects.
It is necessary to observe applicable local valid regulations in countries which are not part of the European
Union.
Two types of cab roofs are mounted to Zetor tractors.
1. Standard cab roof
2. Cab roof designed for tractors equipped with front end loader meeting the OECD code 10 (FOPS)
conditions.
Tractors ZETOR supplied already from production with front end loader are equipped with cab roof according
to point 2.
From safety reasons, series ZETOR tractors supplied without front end loader with standard roof pursuant to
point 1 must not be equipped or used with front end loader.
In case of additional front end loader assembly, it is necessary to equip tractor with cab roof pursuant to point
2.
Only front end loaders approved by ZETOR TRACTORS may be mounted to ZETOR tractor.

Principles for operating tractors equipped with front end loade
r
Carefully study operation manual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader.
In case of discord of Principles for operating tractors equipped with front end loader and operation
manual for front end loader, which was supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader, the wording
listed in operation manual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader shall apply.
zThe use of front end loader for transporting material at places accessible to the public is forbidden.
zThe use of front end loader for transporting material in places inaccessible to the public is possible
only in a limited way. In such case, instructions in user's manual supplied by the loader manufacturer
must be observed.
zObserve local valid regulations at all times.
zA strict ban on transportation and lifting of people by means of loader is in effect.
zNo matter whether the front end loader is loaded or empty, no-one may stand in front of the loader if it
is in lifted position. When driving with a lifted loader, there is a risk of load transported by front end
loader falling (there is a risk of disrupting the balance of the tractor).
zNever leave the tractor standing with the loader in lifted position.
zIf it is necessary to open the bonnet of the engine at intervention, disconnect the front end loader first
or secure hydraulic rollers of front end loader by metallic props designed for this purpose.
zHydraulic circuit of the front end loader is designed in such a way to endure the maximum operation
pressure of 20 MPa (200 bar). Do not do any changes on couplers of hydraulic circuit hoses.
zAny front end loader ZETOR mounting without observing the recommendation of ZETOR TRACTORS
valid to the day of pur-chase revokes the validity of guarantee for the whole of supply.
zThe loader may be used, maintained and repaired only by people who perfectly know the machine
and who are informed about potential risks.
zWhen driving on roads do not transport any material on the front end loader.
zIt is necessary to observe special instructions related to accidents prevention and general rules
related to technical safety, la-bour medicine, labour hygiene and regulation defining operation on
roads.
zThe manufacturer does not bear any responsibility for any potential damage incurred as a result of
changes conducted on the loader without their consent.
zDo not ever adjust the front end loader by yourselves and do not use the adjusted front end loader
without prior ZETOR´s ap-proval. The loader may become dangerous as a result of not observing
these instructions. ZETOR TRACTORS shall not be held responsible in case of any damage or injury.
zUse front end loader without additional weights on the tractor (danger of mutual contact). The load of
front and rear drive axle must not exceed the maximum permitted load listed in the manual. The use
of front end loader requires mounting of counter weight in the rear part of the tractor.
zEach working tool was reconstructed for the purpose of specific usage and has its own tolerance of
resistance and tightness.
zIt is forbidden to use front end loader for cultivating soil and stubbing. Such work needs to be done
with a special tool, front end loader is not designed for doing this.
zUsing controls which would set the loader into motion without driver holding the gear shifting lever is
strictly forbidden and re-sults in installation not meeting the prescribed standard.
zTo penetrate the loaded material, better use the kinetic energy of the tractor rather than pressing force
which causes higher strain of both the loader and the tractor.
zDo not overload hydraulic parts if the load is too heavy or pistons are in end positions.
zControl the loader exclusively from driver's seat, if you are sitting on driver's seat.
zDo not leave the seat if you have not blocked any movement of controls.
zNo people can be present in the working zone of the loader.
zWhen working with a lifted loader, mind electric and external cables etc.
zLoader/tractor set needs to be parked on a horizontal and solid base, the arms of the lifting device
must be set in the lower position
You will find more information in user's manual to front end loader.
Important notification: Work always safely and with consideration.

Zetor tractors used for work in the woods
Standard tractors Zetor do not provide sufficient protection for operation in forest terrain as, for example,
protection against a fal-ling tree or branch on a cab or penetration of objects to a cab.
If Zetor tractor is utilized for forest work, a tractor operated within the European Union must be protected
against these risks.
It is necessary to observe applicable local valid regulations in countries which are not part of the European
Union.
To ensure this protection, it is advisable to conduct assembly of a specific protective structure, like for
example FOPS / OPS (Fal-ling Object Protective Structure / Operator Protective Structure), tested according
to standards for forest machines.
Only forest superstructures approved by ZETOR TRACTORS can be mounted to ZETOR
tractors.
In case of additional assembly of further tractor equipment for working in the woods, full responsibility is
borne by the supplier and manufacturer of the protective structure that all the safety regulations (e.g: OPS /
FOPS), all the conditions of homologation (e.g. the area of driver's view, lighting, parameters, permissible
weight etc.) are met, same as for the provision of due assembly of pr
o
-tective equipment. The
supplier/manufacturer of protective construction is also obliged to conduct all the necessary validation
