Most tractor fatalities are caused by overturns and most baler injuries and fatalities occur from bales rolling out of the loading forks or bucket onto the operator. Be familiar with the terrain and drive safely. Use caution on slopes, slow down for all turns and stay off the highway. While on the highway, use appropriate lighting and follow all rules of the road. Never start an engine in a closed shed or garage.
Carbon monoxide is colorless and deadly.
Always keep the PTO properly shielded. Keep hitches low and always tow or pull from the drawbar. Otherwise, your tractor might overturn backwards. Never jump off a moving tractor or leave it with the engine running. Never refuel while the engine is running or hot.
