Safety
Rollover Protection System
(ROPS) Safety
The ROPS is an integral safety device. Do not
remove any of the ROPS components from the
machine.
Ensure that the seat belt is attached and that you
can release it quickly in an emergency.
Always wear your seat belt when the roll bar is
installed.
Check carefully for overhead objects before you
drive under them, and do not contact them.
Keep the roll bar in safe operating condition by
thoroughly inspecting it periodically for damage
and keeping all the mounting fasteners tight.
Replace damaged ROPS components. Do not
repair or alter them.
Wheels dropping over edges, over steep banks, or
into water can cause a rollover, which may result
in serious injury or death.
Do not wear the seat belt when the roll bar is not
installed.
In the event of a rollover, take the machine to an
Authorized Service Dealer to inspect the ROPS.
Use only Toro approved accessories and
attachments for the ROPS.
