Use ROPS and seat belt whenever and wherever applicable. Foldable ROPS should be folded down only when absolutely necessary and folded back up and locked as soon as possible. Don’t wear the seatbelt when the ROPS is folded. Most tractor fatalities are caused by overturns. 3. Be familiar with your terrain and work area.
