SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The following precautions are
suggested to help prevent accidents.
A careful operator is the best operator. Most
accidents can be avoided by observing cenain
precautions. Read and take the follow- ing
precautions before operating this tractor to help
prevent ac- cidents. Equipment should be operated
only by those who are responsible and instructed
to do so.

• without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes can
  suffocate you.
• If power steering or engine ceases operating,
  stop the tractor immediately.
• Pull only from the swinging drawbar or the lower
  link drawbar in the down position with stays
  installed. Use only a drawbar pin that locks in
  place. Pulling from the tractor rear axle or any
  point above the axle may cause the tractor to
  upset.
• If the front end of the tractor tends to rise
  when heavy im- plements are attached to the
  three-point hitch, install front end or front
  wheel weights. Do not operate the tractor with a
  light front end.
• Always set the hydraulic selector lever in
  position control when attaching equipment, when
  transporting equipment or when no equipment is
  attached. Be sure hydraulic couplers are properly
  mounted and will disconnect safely in case of ac-
  cidental uncoupling.
• Do not leave equipment in the raised position.
• Use the Flasher/Turn Signal lights and SMV signs
  when traveling on public roads both day and night
  unless pro- hibited by law.
• Dim tractor lights when meeting a vehicle at
  night. Be sure the lights are adjusted to prevent
  blinding an oncoming vehi- cle operator.
• DRIVING THE TRACTOR
• Watch where you are going especially at row
  ends, on roads, around trees and any low hanging
  obstacle.
• Drive the tractor with care and at speeds
  compatible with safety, especially when operating
  over rough ground, cross- ing ditches, slopes and
  when turning to avoid upsets.
• Lock tractor brake pedals together when
  transporting on roads to provide two wheel
  braking.
• Keep the tractor in the same gear when going
  downhill as us- ed when going uphill. Do not
  coast or free wheel down hills.
• Any towed vehicle whose total weight exceeds
  that of the towing tractor must be equipped with
  brakes for safe opera- tion.

• THE TRACTOR
• Read the Operator's Manual carefully before using
  the trac- tor. Lack of operating knowledge can
  lead to accidents.
• Use an approved roll bar and seat belt for safe
  operation. Overturning a tractor without a roll
  bar can result in death or injury. If your
  tractor is not equipped with a roll bar and seat
  belt, see your Ford Tractor Equipment Dealer.
• Always use the seat belt when the roll bar is
  installed. Do not use the seat belt if the roll
  bar is removed from the tractor.
• Use the handholds and step plates when getting on
  and off the tractor to prevent falls. Keep steps
  and platform cleared of mud and debris.
• Do not permit anyone but the operator to ride on
  the tractor. There is no safe place for extra
  riders.
• Replace safety and warning decals when they
  become illegi- ble.
• Keep the operator's platform free of debris.

• SERVICING THE TRACTOR
• Cooling system operates under pressure which is
  controlled by the radiator cap. It is dangerous
  to remove the cap while system is hot. Always
  turn cap slowly to the first stop and allow the
  pressure to escape before removing the cap
  entire- ly.
• Do not smoke while refueling the tractor. Keep
  any type of open flame away. Wait for engine to
  cool before refueling.

1. Keep the tractor in good operating condition for
   your safety. An improperly maintained tractor
   can be hazardous.
2. Keep open flame away from battery or cold
   weather starting aids to prevent fires or
   explosions.
3. Stop the engine before performing any service on
   the tractor.

• OPERATING THE TRACTOR
• Apply the parking brake, place the PTO lever in
  the OFF position, the lift control lever in the
  down position, the remote control valve levers in
  the neutral position, and the transmission in
  neutral before stating the tractor.
• Do not stan the engine or operate controls while
  standing beside the tractor. Always sit in the
  tractor seat when star- ting the engine or
  operating controls.
• Do not bypass the staner safety switch. Consult
  your Ford Tractor-Equipment Dealer if your
  starter safety controls malfunction. Use jumper
  cables only in recommended man- ner, improper use
  can result in tractor runaway.
• Do not get off the tractor while it is in motion.
• Shut off the engine and apply the parking brake
  before get- ting off the tractor.
• Always apply the parking brake and remove the
  starter key when leaving the unit parked or
  unattended.
• Do not park the tractor on a steep incline.
• Do not operate the tractor engine in an enclosed
  building
• Whenever you see this symbol it means

1. When the tractor is stuck, back out to prevent
   upset.
2. Always check overhead clearances, especially
   when transporting the tractor.

• OPERATING THE PTO
• When operating PTO driven equipment, shut off
  the engine and wait until the PTO stops before
  getting off the tractor and disconnecting the
  equipment.
• Do not wear loose clothing when operating the
  power take- off, or when near rotating
  equipment.
• When operating stationary PTO equipment, always
  apply the tractor parking brake and block the
  rear wheels tront and back.
• Do not install or remove a belt while the belt
  pulley is in mo- tion.
• To avoid injury, do not clean, adjust, unclog or
  service PTO driven equipment when the tractor
  engine is running.
• Make sure the PTO master shield is installed at
  all times and always replace the PTO shaft cap
  when the PTO is not in use.

ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
