manual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader shall apply.
- The use of front end loader for transporting material at places accessible to the public is forbidden.
- The 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.
- Observe local valid regulations at all times.
- A strict ban on transportation and lifting of people by means of loader is in effect.
- No 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).
- Never leave the tractor standing with the loader in lifted position.
- If 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.
- Hydraulic 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.
- Any front end loader ZETOR mounting without observing the recommendation of ZETOR TRACTORS valid to the day of purchase revokes the validity of guarantee for the whole of supply.

- It 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.
- Using controls which would set the loader into motion without driver holding the gear shifting lever is strictly forbidden and results in installation not meeting the prescribed standard.
- To 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.
- Do not overload hydraulic parts if the load is too heavy or pistons are in end positions.
- Control the loader exclusively from driver’s seat, if you are sitting on driver’s seat.
- Do not leave the seat if you have not blocked any movement of controls.
- No people can be present in the working zone of the loader.
- When working with a lifted loader, mind electric and external cables etc.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USERS
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 falling 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 (Falling 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 protective equipment. The supplier/manufacturer of protective construction is also obliged to conduct all the necessary validation
(approval) steps required by the legislature of the country in which the tractor is operated.
