Preventing Tractor Tip Overs and Safe Maintenance
Properly fix drawbars with correct hardware rather than makeshift chains to avoid overturns. Have a machine shop perform repairs to protect against faulty components. Check safety shields on other machines and never lubricate a running machine. Regular operator training and thorough pre use inspections reduce accidents from carelessness and unfamiliarity.
