Safety frame (roll-bar or ROPS)
The machine is equipped with a folding safety frame. Always keep the safety frame
mounted in its correct vertical position when you are working. It is absolutely forbidden to
modify the structural components of this type of construction by welding on additional
parts, drilling holes, grinding, etc. Failure to comply with these recommendations could
impair the rigidity of the frame itself.
The safety frame is subjected to considerable stress if the tractor tips over. If this
happens, the structural components must be replaced if they have been bent, deformed
or damaged in some other way.
When in the horizontal position, the safety frame will provide no protection if the
tractor tips up. When working in these conditions, it is of the utmost importance
for the operator to pay the greatest attention when manoeuvring the machine.
Raise the safety frame again as soon as the machine is able to operate in normal
conditions.
To lower the safety frame, on both sides:
• turn the pin through 90° and remove it
• lower the safety frame
• insert the pin into the second housing
and turn it through 90°
