Operator Protective Structure
WARNING You could be killed or seriously injured if you operate a machine with a damaged or missing
ROPS/FOPS/FOGS. If the ROPS/FOPS/FOGS has been in an accident, do not use the machine until the
structure has been renewed. Modifications and repairs that are not approved by the manufacturer may be
dangerous and will invalidate the ROPS/FOPS/FOGS certification.
WARNING Machines with a ROPS, FOPS,FOGS or TOPS are equipped with a seat belt. The ROPS,
FOPS,FOGS or TOPS is designed to give you protection in an accident. If you do not wear the seat belt you
could be thrown off the machine and crushed. You must wear a seat belt when using the machine. Fasten
the seat belt before starting the engine.
FOPS Data Plate
WARNING Do not use the machine if the falling objects protection level provided by the structure is not
sufficient for the application. Falling objects can cause serious injury.
If the machine is used in any application where there is a risk of falling objects then a FOPS (Falling Object
Protective Structure) must be installed. For further information, contact your JCB dealer.
The FOPS has a data plate attached. The data plate indicates what level of protection the structure provides.
There are two levels of FOPS:
• Level I Impact Protection - impact strength for protection from small falling objects (e.g. bricks, small
concrete blocks, hand tools) encountered in operations such as highway maintenance, landscaping and
other construction site services.
• Level II Impact Protection - impact strength for protection from heavy falling objects (e.g. trees, rocks) for
machines involved in site clearing, overhead demolition or forestry.
ROPS Data Plate
WARNING Your machine may be installed with a Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) indicating that the
purchaser specified the machine for use in applications where there is risk of roll-over. ROPS is a device
to protect the operator in the event of roll-over. Any damage or modification to the structure may invalidate
the ROPS certification. If damage has occurred then an authorized JCB dealer should be consulted.
A machine with a ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) can be identified by referring to the cab identification
plate. Work place (work site, job site) risk assessment should facilitate the machine selection and the need
for an machine with a ROPS.
