KUBOTA recommends the use of a CAB or Roll Over Protective Structures (ROPS) and seat belt in almost All operators, no matter how much experience they may all applications. SAFE OPERATION C Working 1. Pull only from the hitch. Never hitch to axle housing or any other point except hitch; such arrangements will increase the risk of serious personal injury or death due to a tractor upset. (1) ROPS (2) Seat belt 2. SAFE OPERATION 6. Never allow children to play on the machine or on the 11.

Set the implement lowering speed knob in the 'LOCK' implement. Position to hold the implement in the raised position. Use extra caution when backing up.

Look behind and down to make sure area is clear before moving. SAFE OPERATION 3. PARKING THE TRACTOR 4.

OPERATING THE PTO 1. Disengage the PTO, lower all implements to the 1. Wait until all moving components have completely ground, place all control levers in their neutral stopped before getting off the tractor, connecting, positions, set the parking brake, stop the engine, disconnecting, adjusting, cleaning, or servicing any remove the key from the ignition and lock the cab door. SAFE OPERATION 7. Disconnect the battery's ground cable before working on or near electric components.

USING 3-POINT HITCH 8. To avoid the possibility of battery explosion, do not use or charge the refillable type battery if the fluid level is 1. SAFE OPERATION 15. Escaping hydraulic fluid under pressure has sufficient force to penetrate skin, causing serious personal injury.

Before disconnecting hydraulic lines, be sure to release all residual pressure. Before applying pressure to the hydraulic system, make sure that all connections are tight and that all lines, pipes, and hoses are free of damage. For your safety, a ROPS with a seat belt is strongly recommended by KUBOTA in almost all applications. Do not walk or work under a raised loader bucket or If your tractor has a foldable ROPS, fold it down only. SAFE OPERATION 18.

Be extra careful when operating the tractor on a slope, always operate up and down, never across the slope. Do not operate on steep slopes or unstable surfaces. When operating another implement on a hillside, be sure to remove the loader to reduce the risk of rollover.

SAFE OPERATION BACKHOE Most backhoe equipment accidents can be avoided by following simple safety precautions. These safety precautions, if followed at all times, will help you operate your backhoe safely.

After 12 months of stuffing around trying to save these files on at an online file sharing site (that kept losing stuff) I've bitten the bullet and created a proper website. Now anyone can download or upload files directly to this site. (Any uploaded files will now appear immediately, and theres no worries about clashing with the old lost files at Mediamax). Heres the new website address. I'm no webmaster but I think I've got most of the bugs sorted out. At least it seems to work OK on my Explorer and Netscape. So give it a whirl and let me know.

If you've got any parts manuals to upload, please do so. Not to be a wet blanket, but your probably going to be hearing from about this. For one, you used 'Kubota' in your URL for a site that could be confused with some affiliation with Kubota corporate.

I recomend you add a statement on the home page that your not, and setup a link to Kubota.com. You also spelled out that your looking for copyright free content. But everything that posted there is copyrighted. It may not say so in the.pdf files, but that content was ripped from an early version of our dealer parts programs which contains a copyright in the EULA.

I know you have good intentions, but it defentialy has the potential to raise some eyebrows. Not to be a wet blanket, but your probably going to be hearing from about this.That'll be interesting! I'll let you all know if anything develops. In the meantime I still invite any TBN'ers with suitable books to upload them. I'm sure you know I didn't rip these off from anywhere. I just collected them from various other free internet sources.

Many came from the original (but now defunct) kubota4you mediamax site that I first heard about on TBN. As you say, theres no copyright info on the books, so I didn't know what the legal situation was (and still don't really). I have wondered about kubota's official attitude to these manuals. Until now, dealers on TBN had been totally silent about them too.

My local dealer knew about them and didn't care. He said that it was good that people who came to buy parts had a good idea of exactly what they wanted.

(But I guess he didn't have much of a business selling manuals to worry about) Anyway, we'll see what happens (if anything). I'm not 'on a mission' here. Just trying to offer a little help to fellow TBN members. (edit) Fair point about the link to kubota. I'll add that, and a note that this isn't an official site of any kind. You have very good site by the way. Those service articles are excellent.
