Do not remove Roll-Over Protective Structures (ROPS) for any application and fasten seat belts at all times. This combination will reduce the risk of serious injury or death, should the vehicle be upset. If the ROPS is loosened or removed for any reason, make sure that all parts are reinstalled correctly before operating the vehicle. Never modify or repair a ROPS because welding, bending, drilling, grinding, or cutting may weaken the structure. A damaged ROPS structure must be replaced, not repaired or revised.

If any structural member of the ROPS is damaged, replace the entire structure at your local KUBOTA Dealer. (1) ROPS (2) Seat belt 4. Always use the seat belts. Check the seat belts regularly and replace if frayed or damaged. SAFE OPERATION -1 SAFE OPERATION
