Safety
This section contains general safety precautions which should be thoroughly studied and practised by all service personnel. See the operator's manual for more detailed safety information. Always park the tractor on a clear, level area before beginning any maintenance procedure. Shut down the engine and remove key; apply parkbrake; chock the front and back of at least two wheels. Ensure all operating controls are in neutral. Always disengage the PTO clutch and three-point hitch. Engage articulation lock during tractor servicing.
