forward could cause the tractor to tip over backward. Stay off hills and slopes too steep for safe operation.

O P E R ATING THE TRACTO R

1. Apply the parking brake, place the lift control lever in the down position and the P. T.O. control switch and the transmission lever in neutral before starting the tractor. 2. Avoid accidental contact with the gear shift levers while the engine is running. Unexpected tractor movement can result from such contact. 3. Shut off the engine and P. T.O. and apply the parking brake before getting off the tractor. 4. Do not park the tractor on a steep incline. 5. Do not operate the tractor engine in an enclosed building without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes can cause death. 6. Tighten all connections before starting the

engine or pressurizing lines. 7. Pull only from the pick-up hitch, swinging drawbar or the lower link draw-bar in the lowered position. Use only a draw-bar pin that locks in place. Pulling from the tractor rear axle or any point above the axle may cause the tractor to tip o v e r.

8. If the front end of the tractor tends to rise when heavy implements are attached to the threepoint hitch, install front end weight. Do not operate the tractor with a front end light. 9. Do not leave equipment in the raised position when the tractor is stopped or unattended. 10. When installing or using an implement or other attachment with the tractor, be sure to read the

“ Specifications of Implement Limitations”. 11. Know your equipment and its limitations. 12. When using an implement, be sure to install the proper ballast weight on the tractor. 13. Ensure any attached equipment or accessories are correctly installed, and approved for use with the tractor. Do not overload the tractor and are operated and maintained in accordance with the instructions issued by the equipment or accessory manufacturer. 14. Remember that your tractor, if abused, can be dangerous and become a hazard both to the operator and to bystanders. Do not overload or operate with attached equipment which is unsafe, not designed for the particular task or is poorly maintained.
