Thought I would start this thread to see if anyone else has safety tip they care to share.
Here is mine - When getting off a tractor with engine running, make sure shuttle shifter is in neutral and shuttle mechanical safety interlock has shuttle LOCKED in neutral and emergency brake is ON. Don't think I need to explain why this is important but I will anyway. If shuttle interlock is not used, it is too easy to accidentally bump the shuttle shifter and shift forward or reverse when mounting or dismounting tractor. You may then possibly run yourself or someone else over with tractor.
