Use Caution On Slopes and Uneven Terrain
Avoid holes, ditches, and obstructions which cause the tractor to tip, especially on hillsides. Avoid sharp uphill turns.
Never drive near the edge of a gully or steep embankment - - it might cave in.
Driving forward out of a ditch, mired condition, or up a steep slope could cause tractor to tip over rearward. Back out of these situations if possible.
Danger of overturn increases greatly with narrow tread setting, at high speed.
Hitch towed loads only to drawbar. When using a chain, take up the slack slowly.
Not all conditions that can cause a tractor to overturn are listed. Be alert for any situation in which stability may be compromised.
