Use Seat Belts, Nets and Doors Properly

• Use a seat belt and doors or nets when you operate with a Protective Structure to minimize chance of injury from an accident, such as an overturn.
• Do not operate machine with any portion of the operator safety system inoperative or removed.
• Inspect seat belts, nets and doors for proper operation before each machine use.
• Insert metal tab of net into buckle until it clicks, indicating it is latched. Pull back on net to confirm it is securely latched.
• Layers of heavy clothing can interfere with proper positioning of the seat belt and can reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt.
• Never modify, disassemble, or attempt to repair a seat belt, nets or doors.
• Inspect seat belts, nets and doors at least once a year. Look for signs of loose hardware or material damage, such as cuts, fraying, extreme or unusual wear, or abrasion. Replace only with John Deere approved replacement parts.
• Replace entire seat belt if mounting hardware, buckle, belt, or retractor show signs of damage.
