on or o the vehicle while it is moving.
WARNING:

machine, use the handrails and steps, and get on or o slowly. Maintain a three-point
contact to avoid falling: both hands on the handrails and one foot on the step, or one hand
on the handrail and both feet on the steps. Failure to comply could result in death or
serious injury. Get on and o the machine only by using the specific accesses equipped
with a handrail, steps or ladder. Do not jump o the machine. Check that the steps,
ladders and platforms remain clean and clear of debris and foreign matter. Slippery areas
can be a cause of accidents. Never get on or o the machine while in movement. Do not

or out of the cab.

Maintaining the tractor in perfect conditions and respecting the maintenance intervals (for oil change, top-

performance conditions.
