Safety Precautions
• Operate Tractor Safely
Features designed into your tractor
make operation Safer and let it perform
a wide variety of jobs. Use your tractor
only for specied jobs it was designed to
perform: implement carrier, load mover,
remote power source, or transport Unit
- not a recreational vehicle.
Careless use or misuse can result in
unnecessary accidents. Be alert to
hazards of tractor operation.
Understand causes of accidents and
take every precaution to avoid them.
Most common accidents are caused
from:
• Tractor misuse.
• Improper starting procedures
• Crushing and pinching during hitching
• Collisions with other motor vehicles
• Getting entangled in P.T.O. shafts
• Falls from tractors
Avoid accidents by taking the following
precautions:
Before dismounting, put the
transmission in NEUTRAL and APPLY
the PARK BRAKE. Leaving the
transmission in gear with the engine
stopped will NOT prevent the tractor
from moving. Be sure everyone is clear
of the tractor and attached equipment
before starting the engine.
Never try to get on or off a moving
tractor.
When the tractor is left unattended,
place the transmission in NEUTRAL,
apply the park brake, lower implements
to the ground, stop the engine and
remove the key.
S-4
1. Read Operator’s manual
before operating this tractor.
2. Keep all shields in place.

CAUTION
Factory Direct Tr actors
Safety Precautions
• Hillside safety
Always wear your seat belt with the ROPS in the up
extended position.
Avoid holes, ditches, and obstructions which could cause
the tractor to tip, especially on hillsides. Avoid sharp, uphill
turns.
Never drive near the edge of a gully or steep embankment,
as it might cave in.
Driving forward out of a ditch or up a steep slope could
cause the tractor to tip over rearward. Back out of these
situations if possible.
While mechanical front wheel drive greatly increases
traction, it DOES NOT increase the stability of the tractor
With mechanical front wheel drive engaged, the tractor can
climb steeper slopes than a two wheel drive tractor can
negotiate, but it does not become more stable. Use extra
caution when negotiating steep slopes in four wheel drive.
Danger of overturn increases greatly with a narrow wheel
track, at high speed, and on slopes.
Hitch towed loads only to the drawbar. When using a chain,
take up the slack slowly.
• Hearing safety
Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause hearing loss
or impairment.
Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as earmuffs
or earplugs to protect against hearing loss from loud noise.
S-5
Factory Direct Tr actors
Safety Precautions
• Use low gear on hills
Shift to a low gear before descending a steep hill. This
improves your control of the tractor with little or no braking.
Use engine braking to reduce speed before applying the
tractor brakes. Run-away tractors often tip over. Never
coast downhill.
When driving on icy, wet or graveled surfaces reduce
speed and be sure the tractor is properly ballasted to avoid
skidding and loss of steering control. For best control,
engage mechanical front wheel drive (if equipped).
Additional ballast may be needed for transporting heavy
linkage mounted implements. When the implement is
raised, drive slowly over rough ground, regardless of how
much ballast is used.
• Operator only
Only allow the operator on the machine. Keep riders off
Riders or passengers on the machine are subject to injury
such as being struck by foreign objects, being jolted and
thrown off, and slipping and falling of the machine. Riders
also obstruct the operator’s view resulting in the tractor
being operated in an unsafe manner.
• Getting out of sticky situations safely
Attempting to free a stuck machine can involve safety
hazards such as the tow tractor tipping backwards and
overturning. The tow chain or tow bar can also fail and recoil
from its stretched condition causing injury and damage.
Back your tractor out if it gets bogged down in mud unhitch
any towed implements. Dig mud from behind the rear
wheels. Place boards behind the wheels to provide a solid
base and try to back out slowly. If necessary, dig mud from
the front of all wheels and drive slowly ahead.
If towing with another unit, use the tow bar and a long chain
(a cable is not recommended). Inspect the chain for aws.
Make sure all parts of the towing equipment are of adequate
size and strong enough to handle the load always hitch to
the drawbar of the towing unit. Do not hitch to the front
push bar attachment point. The hitch point should never be
above the rear drive axles.

Safety Precautions
Before moving, clear the area of people. Apply power
smoothly to take up the slack. A sudden pull could snap any
towing equipment causing it to whip or recoil dangerously.
• Avoid high-pressure uids
Escaping uid under pressure can penetrate the skin
causing serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections before
applying pressure.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect hands
and body from high pressure uids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any uid
injected into the skin must be surgically removed within
a few hours or gangrene may result. Doctors unfamiliar
with this type of injury should reference a knowledgeable
medical source.
• Park tractor safely
To park tractor safely:
• Disengage the P.T.O..
• Lower the equipment to the ground.
• Put the gear shift lever into neutral.
• Apply the hand brake.
• STOP the engine.
• Remove the key.
Before you leave the operator’s seat, wait for the engine
and attachment parts to stop moving.
• Fuel and re safety
Handle fuel with care; it is highly ammable. Do not refuel
the machine while smoking or when near open ame or
sparks.
Always stop the engine before refueling the machine Fill
the fuel tank outdoors.
Prevent res by keeping the machine clean of accumulated
trash, grease, and debris. Always clean up spilled fuel.

Safety Precautions
• Prepare for emergencies
Be prepared if a re starts.
Keep a rst aid kit and re extinguisher handy. Keep
emergency numbers for doctors, ambulance service,
hospital, and re department near your telephone.
• Do not use starting uid
DO NOT use starting uid to start DongFeng tractors.
• Wear protective clothing
Wear close tting clothing and safety equipment appropriate
to the job.
Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause hearing
impairment or loss.
Wear a suitable hearing protective device such as
earmuffs or earplugs to protect against hearing loss from
uncomfortable loud noises.
Operating equipment safely requires the full attention of the
operator. Do not wear radio or music headphones while
operating the machine.
• Work in ventilated area
Engine exhaust fumes can cause sickness or death. If it is
necessary to run an engine in an enclosed area, remove
the exhaust fumes from the area with an exhaust pipe
extension.
If you do not have an exhaust pipe extension, open the
doors and ventilate the area with clean outside air.
S-8
Factory Direct Tr actors
Safety Precautions
• Avoid contact with pesticides
The enclosed cab does not protect against inhaling harmful
pesticides. Respiratory protection is required. If pesticide /
herbicides are used and respiratory protection is required,
wear an appropriate respirator inside the cab.
Within the cab, wear personal protective equipment as
required by the hazardous chemical safety instructions.
Remove protective equipment and store in a closed box or
some other type of sealable pesticide resistant container,
such as a plastic bag.
Clean your shoes or boots to remove soil or other
contaminated particles prior to entering the cab.
• Stay clear of rotating drivelines
Entanglement in rotating driveline can cause serious injury
or death.
Keep tractor master shield and driveline shields in place at
all times. Make sure rotating shields turn freely. Wear close
tting clothing. Stop the engine and be sure P.T.O. driveline
is stopped before making adjustments, connections, or
cleaning out P.T.O. driven equipment.
• Use safety lights and devices
Avoid collisions with other road users when using slow
moving tractors with attachments or towed equipment, and
self-propelled machines on public roads. Frequently check
for trafc from the rear, especially in turns, and use turn
indicators.
Use headlights, ashing warning lights, and turn indicators
day and night. Follow local regulations for equipment
lighting and marking. Keep lighting and marking visible,
clean, and in good working order.
Replace or repair lighting and marking that has been
damaged or lost. A safety lighting kit is available from your
DongFeng dealer.
S-9

Safety Precautions
• Safety chains
A safety chain will help control towed equipment should it
accidentally separate from the drawbar.
Using the appropriate adapter parts, attach the chain to the
tractor drawbar support or other specied anchor location.
Provide only enough slack in the chain to permit turning.
See your DongFeng dealer for a chain with a strength
rating equal to or greater than the gross weight of the
towed machine.
Do not use safety chain for towing.
• Transport safety
A disabled tractor is best transported on a atbed carrier.
Use chains to secure the tractor to the carrier.
Never tow a tractor at a speed greater than 16 km/h
(10mph). An operator must steer and brake the tractor
under tow.
• Tow loads safely
Stopping distance increases with speed and weight of
towed loads, and on slopes. Towed loads with or without
brakes that are too heavy for the tractor or are towed too
fast can cause loss of control. Consider the total weight of
the equipment and its size.
Observe recommended maximum road speeds, or local
speed limits which may be lower:
• If towed equipment does not have brakes, do not travel
more than 20 km/hr and do not tow loads more than 1.5
times the tractor weight.
• If towed equipment has brakes, do not travel more than
30 km/hr and do not tow loads more than 3 times the
tractor weight.
Ensure the load does not exceed the recommended
weight ratio. Add ballast to recommended maximum for
tractor, lighten the load, or get a heavier towing unit. The
tractor must be heavy and powerful enough with adequate
braking power for the towed load. Use additional caution
when towing loads under adverse surface conditions, when
turning, and on inclines.
