ROPS
Checking and Caring for the Seat Belt
Before you operate the machine, always ensure that the ROPS
and the seat belt are properly installed and in good working
order.
1.
Check the seat belt for damage, and replace all parts
that are damaged.
2.
Ensure that the mounting bolts for the seat belts are
tight.
3.
Keep the seat belts clean using only soap and water.
Note:
Do not immerse the seat belts in bleach or dye,
because this weakens the belt material.
