Avoid Injury or Death from Rollover Accidents
To help prevent rollovers:
-
Equip tractor with a rollover protective structure (ROPS). Wear your seat belt.
-
Be sure tractor tire spacing and rear ballast is correct before using loader.
-
Stop loader gradually when lowering or lifting loads.
-
Be careful when operating on a slope.
-
Avoid holes, ditches and obstructions which may cause tractor and loader to tip over.
-
Balance loads so weight is evenly distributed and load is stable.
-
Carry loads close to the ground to aid visibility and lower center of gravity.
-
Know capacity of loader. Do not overload.
-
Reduce speed before turning. Avoid sharp turns.
