WARNING You could be killed or seriously injured if you operate a machine with a damaged or missing

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.
A failure to adhere to these precautions can cause death or injury to the operator. For assistance, contact your
JCB dealer.
