2.1 Introduction
Operator's Manual
2
NOTE: This Operator's Manual is widely published and distributed and the availability of the attachments in-
dicated, whether fitted to the basic tractor or as an accessory, may vary depending on the country or region
in which the tractor is used. To find out which attachments are available in a given region, contact a Massey
Ferguson dealer.
The purpose of this manual is to enable the owner and the operator to operate the tractor appropriately under
normal conditions of use. Providing they follow the instructions carefully, the tractor will give many years of
service in the Massey Ferguson tradition.
Use for any other activity (particularly forestry work) is considered to be contrary to the intended use.
The commissioning of equipment by the Massey Ferguson dealer on the user's premises enables the dealer
to ensure that these operating and service instructions are properly understood. Always consult the Massey
Ferguson dealer if there is any part of this manual that you do not understand. It is important that these in-
structions are understood and followed.
This manual does not cover all operation and safety instructions relevant to the implements and accessories
that may be fitted at the time of tractor delivery or later. It is essential that operators use and understand the
Operator's Manuals relating to these implements and accessories.
IMPORTANT: This manual must always be kept with the tractor. For extra copies, contact your Massey Fer-
guson dealer.
This chapter in the Operator's Manual highlights certain basic safety-related situations that may be encoun-
tered during normal operation and servicing of the tractor and provides the information needed to handle
these situations.
This chapter supplements any safety instructions given in other chapters of this manual.
It may be necessary to take additional precautions, depending on the implements and accessories used and
the working conditions on-site or in the service area. Massey Ferguson can under no circumstances exercise
Crop_this_page
direct control over the commissioning, operation, inspection, lubrication or servicing of the tractor. It is there-
fore YOUR responsibility to take suitable safety precautions in such areas.
WARNING:
It is your responsibility to read and understand the instructions that appear in this chapter be-
fore using the tractor. They must then be strictly adhered to throughout the working day.

2.4 General safety instructions
Remember that you alone are responsible for safety. Good safety practices protect not only you, but also
bystanders. Before using the tractor, study the instructions given in this book with care, as well as all of the
2
safety decals and instructions fixed to the tractor: Make them an integral part of your safety procedure. Also
note all the usual protective measures which should be taken when working and above all, don't forget:
Safety depends on you. You can prevent accidents which could cause serious injury or death.
WARNING:
In some of the illustrations in this book, the safety panels and guards have been removed for
reasons of clarity. Never use the tractor if these parts are not in place. If some of these parts
have been removed for repair purposes, they must be refitted before use.
– WARNING:
The operator must not drink alcohol or
take any medication that may affect
his concentration or co-ordination. If
taking medication, whether pre-
scribed or not, the operator must seek
medical advice with regard to his abil-
ity to operate machinery safely.
To be able to use your tractor, it is first neces-
sary:
– to be familiar with operating an agricultural
tractor
Crop_this_page
– to have been trained in the operation of the
tractor that you have just purchased

– Use handrails, grab handles, ladders or steps (if fitted) when getting on and off.

2.5 Special instructions
Hot surfaces
Be careful of surfaces which may be hot, in particular engine and hydraulics components, during operation
and services.
FOPS (Falling Object Protection Structure)
– Alternative 1 (no FOPS available): Protection against falling objects is not provided, unless clearly speci-
fied otherwise.
– Alternative 2 (optional FOPS fitted): Protection against falling objects is provided under OECD-code 10
(Energy level 1365 J). If a higher protection level is necessary, additional safety equipment should be in-
stalled on the tractor (no original equipment available).
OPS (Operator Protection Structure)
– Alternative 1 (no OPS available): Protection against penetrating objects is not provided, unless clearly
specified otherwise.
– Alternative 2 (optional OPS fitted): Protection against penetrating objects is provided under ISO 8084 (Ma-
chinery for forestry). Before operating, check if protection is adapted to your work conditions.
Hazardous substances
NOTE: A mark indicating the cab's level of protection against hazardous substances is located on the front
left-hand pillar inside the cab. For platform tractors, this mark is displayed on the arch.
IMPORTANT: Always wear personal protective equipment when handling the filters.
– Alternative 1 (less cab or cab under category 1): Protection against hazardous substances (agricultural
chemicals etc.) in the form of dust, aerosols and fumes is not provided. In particular, tractors fitted with
these cabs are not to be used for spraying pesticides without any additional protection. Personal protec- Crop_this_page
tive equipment must be used according to the chemical manufacturer's recommendations.
– Alternative 2 (cab under category 2): Protection against hazardous substances (agricultural chemicals
etc.) in the form of aerosols and fumes is not provided. In particular, tractors fitted with these cabs are
not to be used for spraying pesticides without any additional protection. Personal protective equipment
must be used according to the chemical manufacturer's recommendations.
Protection against dust (category 2 of standard EN15695-1:2009) is provided under the following condi-
tions:
– all roof hatch, cab doors and cab windows are closed
– cab ventilation is running
– air filter is clean and is serviced under maintenance interval (refer to service guide). When replacing
the filter, only a filter certified for at least category 2 cabs is permitted. Activated carbon filters do not
improve the cab's level of protection. Always refer to the user instructions provided with the filter.
– Alternative 3 (cab under category 4): The cab is equipped with protection against hazardous substances
(agricultural chemicals etc.) in the form of dust, aerosols and fumes. For pesticide spraying, tractors fitted
with these cabs must also have a specially designed filter for category 4 cabs.
This protection (category 4 of standard EN 15695-1:2009) is provided under the following conditions:
- All roof hatches, doors and windows are closed
- Cab ventilation is running
- Air filters are clean and serviced according to the maintenance interval (refer to service guide)
Given the risk associated with contaminants entering the cab when opening the door to enter or exit the
vehicle, this protection is designed to supplement, but not necessarily replace, the use of personal pro-
tective equipment when working in an environment with aerosols and/or fumes, such as pesticides. The
chemical manufacturer's instructions concerning the use of personal protective equipment must be fol-
lowed.
When replacing the filter, only a filter certified for at least category 4 cabs is permitted.
Always refer to the user instructions provided with the filter. Once spraying operations are complete, it
is important to return the special filter to its case and replace it with a standard anti-dust filter.
