rise up when braking.
•Use appropriate ballast weights at the rear as required.
•Do not exceed the maximum axle loads.
•Cleaning
Keep the tractor clean to decrease the risk of fire.
•Lights
•Make sure that lights and reflectors are clean and in working order.
•Make sure that the headlights are correctly adjusted.
•Steps
Keep the steps clean as dirty steps can lead to falls and injuries.
•Quick couplings
WARNING: Clean the quick couplings and ball joints before
attaching an implement. There is a risk that the implement is not
attached properly.
•Maintenance
•Follow the maintenance instructions and safety precautions applicable to
the tractor.
•Stop the engine and lower the implement before carrying out any
maintenance work on the tractor or implement.
DANGER: Support the tractor from the correct support points
on the frame and use suitable blocks or stands when carrying
out maintenance tasks that require supporting the tractor.
1.2.4 Using safety features
The tractor has several features that contribute to the safety of the operator.

•Emergency exits
Familiarise yourself with the three emergency exits of the tractor cab, that is,
the door, the rear window and the roof hatch. If necessary, the right-side
window can be broken and used as emergency exit. The windshield is
polycarbonate and cannot be easily broken.
When the tractor is equipped with the Skyview roof (optional), there is no roof
hatch which could be used as an emergency exit. The windshield is then
made of glass and can be broken and used as an emergency exit.

1. Safety precautions
•Emergency brake
Use the emergency brake only in emergency situations if braking with brake
pedals is not possible.
WARNING: Turning the ignition switch to (OFF) position
cannot be used as an emergency brake. The emergency brake
operates only when the power is switched on.
WARNING: Emergency brake uses the parking brake which is not
designed for continuous use. The parking brake can become
faulty.
WARNING: Using emergency brake in slippery conditions can
result in skidding and loss of control. Release the emergency
brake immediately when there is danger of wheels locking up.
Release the emergency brake only if you can do it safely.
1.2.5 Safe operation
1.2.5.1 Following safe operating practices
To operate the tractor safely, follow all safety precautions and instructions.
•Avoid operating the tractor near ditches, embankments and holes.
•Stay off slopes too steep for safe operation.
•When using chemicals, carefully follow the chemical manufacturer's
instructions for use, storage and disposal.
Also follow the chemical application equipment manufacturer's instructions.
•Protect yourself against engine noise.
Use hearing protectors to avoid injuries when you are working outside the
cab near the engine.
•Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING: To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, do not start the
engine or run it indoors with the doors closed unless the exhaust is
vented to the outside.
•Restart after engine stop.
•If the engine has stalled, for example due to too heavy loading, turn the
ignition key to the Off position.
•Restart the engine. Keep an eye on the indicator lights on the instrument
panel.
- 26 -
•Front linkage
WARNING: When the front linkage is being connected to the rear
valve, make sure there is no load on the front linkage or rear
implement connected to the same valve. The load on the front
linkage or rear valve implement discharges when the shut-off
valve lever is turned. This may cause the implements to move
abruptly.
WARNING: When you drive on public roads and there is no
implement on the front linkage, the lifting links have to be folded
up.
•Front loader
WARNING: To prevent involuntary loader motion, the loader
joystick controller must be of the self-neutralising type. When the
operator releases their grip on the joystick, the joystick must return
to the neutral position, except for the float detent position in the
loader lowering direction.
WARNING: The risk of overturning increases as the loader is
raised. Be extra careful on slopes when operating the loader.
Always carry the load as low as practical for the conditions.
1. Safety precautions
•Pivoting front linkage
WARNING: There is a danger of being squeezed between the
pivoting front linkage and the tractor's front wheels. Do not let
anyone stand within the turning range of the pivoting front linkage.
WARNING: There is a risk of overturning when working with heavy
loads or on an unstable or sloping surface or when taking sharp
turns.
WARNING: Make sure that link arms are in operating position and
that the movement range of the pivoting front linkage is clear.
WARNING: The linkage may extend farther than the tractor's
sides. This may be dangerous when driving in traffic.
WARNING: When the pivoting front linkage is being turned or if
the steering system malfunctions, the equipment may be a risk to
bystanders. Make sure there are no bystanders near the pivoting
front linkage.
WARNING: If you disengage the hydraulic system while using the
pivoting front linkage, you must reactivate the pivoting front linkage
after re-engaging the hydraulics.
WARNING: The front wheels and the pivoting front linkage can be
turned to opposite directions, which may cause dangerous
situations.
IMPORTANT: When the front loader is in use, the pivoting front linkage must
be centered and in its top position and the lifting links must be folded to the
transport position.
•Differential lock
Use the differential lock only when running on loose or slippery ground.
- 27 -
1. Safety precautions
•Overturning
•Always consider the way in which the tractor is to be used and the fact
that the centre of gravity of the tractor/implement assembly changes
according to the load being transported or towed.
•Adapt the tractor speed according to visibility, weather conditions and the
type of terrain.
•Do not transport loads in the top position. Transport them as low as
possible and balance the tractor with ballast weights.
•Do not accelerate, brake, turn or release clutch too suddenly when
driving on a slope.
•If possible, drive so that the heavier end of the tractor is towards the top
of the slope.
•Work situations with an increased risk of overturning include front-loader
work, lifting of heavy loads with the rear or front linkage, forest work,
especially with a boom, as well as driving on a soft, uneven or inclined
surface.
WARNING: The instructions concerning overturning in this manual
are not exhaustive.
•Hydraulic/fuel pressure
Do not attempt to locate a leak in the hydraulic system or attempt to close a
leak using any part of your body.
CAUTION: Oil/fuel under high pressure easily penetrates clothing
and skin and can cause serious injuries.
•Hot surfaces
CAUTION: Be careful of hot surfaces during operation and service
work, in particular the engine and hydraulics components.
•Fuel-operated heater
WARNING: During the heating period, clean the exhaust pipe of
the fuel-operated heater daily and its surroundings monthly. In
dusty conditions, clean more frequently. There is a risk of dry hay
or other dirt catching fire.
WARNING: When using the heater, the area directly below the
heater must be clear.
•Falling Object Protection Structure (FOPS)
DANGER: The cab structure is designed for protection against
falling objects in accordance with the OECD code 10 (energy level
1362 J). Before operating, make sure the protection is adequate
for your work conditions.
