Tips on tractor safety

Trevor Raupach, Reporter

Safety is a must when using a tractor. Read the manual and warning labels before using it and remember these useful tips:

  • When using a tractor, drive carefully and don’t drive across hills.
  • Keep the bucket level and watch how high it is.
  • Keep others away from the equipment when it’s in operation.
  • If cutting grass drive slowly if it’s tall and make sure no one is close to you.
  • Don’t raise something high with the bucket because if you make a turn with something heavy is raised high up and you turn the tractor might tip right over.
