WARNING: If damage occurs to the cab, replace all affected parts with new ones. Do not attempt any repair work (welding, drilling, cutting or grinding) without first consulting the manufacturer.
Tractor construction
Do not change the tractor construction, such as maximum driving speed or maximum power.
The tractor is type-approved to comply with construction and use regulations. Any changes to the tractor construction may reduce safety and durability and affect the warranty terms.
- 22 -
1. Safety precautions
Brakes
Always check before driving that the brakes are working.
After attaching a trailer, check that the brakes are working.
Lock the brake pedals together whenever individual wheel brakes are not required and always when driving on the road.
Extensive repairs to the braking system should be undertaken only by an authorised Valtra workshop.
When implements or ballast weights are front-end-mounted, the rear axle loading is decreased.
Make sure that steering is still effective.
Make sure that the tractor remains stable and the rear end does not
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.
Steering wheel and safety handles
WARNING: Hold on to the steering wheel or safety handles in the cab if the tractor tips over. Never try to jump out.
Safety belt
Always use the safety belt when using the tractor.
- 23 -
1. Safety precautions
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.

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.
