• PROTECTIVE ZONE AROUND THE OPERATOR IS PROVIDED BY THE ROLLOVER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE (ROPS): The spacious operator station has been designed for comfort, visibility, and ease of use: Getting on and off is easy with the flat operator platform. Convenient-to-use controls located close to the operator are color coded and designed for easy identification and operation. The ROPS and seat belt work in conjunction to provide a protective zone around the operator: It reduces the operator’s risk of being crushed under the vehicle should it overturn. When used with the seatbelt, the ROPS can reduce the severity of injury in the event of a rollover. Use of the seat belt is recommended when operating with ROPS in the upright position.
