1.1 Introduction
GUID-71A89E4C-33F6-466C-A46F-9CE714A6823D [V1]

1.1.1 Introduction - Safety instructions

Operator's Manual
NOTE: This Operator's Manual is widely published and distributed and the availability of the attachments
indicated, whether fitted to the basic tractor or as an accessory, may vary depending on the country or
region in which the tractor is used. To find out which attachments are available in a given region, contact a
Massey Ferguson dealer.
The purpose of this manual is to enable the owner and the operator to operate the tractor appropriately
under normal conditions of use. Providing they follow the instructions carefully, the tractor will give many
years of service in the Massey Ferguson tradition.
Use for any other activity (particularly forestry work) is considered to be contrary to the intended use.
The commissioning of equipment by the Massey Ferguson dealer on the user's premises enables the
dealer to ensure that these operating and service instructions are properly understood. Always consult the
Massey Ferguson dealer if there is any part of this manual that you do not understand. It is important that
these instructions are understood and followed.
This manual does not cover all operation and safety instructions relevant to the implements and
accessories that may be fitted at the time of tractor delivery or later. It is essential that operators use and
understand the Operator's Manuals relating to these implements and accessories.
IMPORTANT: This manual must always be kept with the tractor. For extra copies, contact your Massey
Ferguson dealer.
This chapter in the Operator's Manual highlights certain basic safety-related situations that may be
encountered during normal operation and servicing of the tractor and provides the information needed to
handle these situations.
This chapter supplements any safety instructions given in other chapters of this manual.
It may be necessary to take additional precautions, depending on the implements and accessories used
and the working conditions on-site or in the service area. Massey Ferguson can under no circumstances
exercise direct control over the commissioning, operation, inspection, lubrication or servicing of the tractor.
It is therefore YOUR responsibility to take suitable safety precautions in such areas.
WARNING:
It is your responsibility to read and understand the instructions that appear in this chapter
before using the tractor.
They must then be strictly adhered to throughout the working day.

Servicing, spare parts, accessories and conditions of use

Daily servicing should become a routine, and a logbook of operating hours should be kept.
When spare parts are required, it is important to use only genuine Massey Ferguson parts. Massey
Ferguson dealers supply genuine parts and can offer advice concerning their fitting and use. The use of
lower quality parts may cause serious damage. Customers are advised only to purchase their spare parts
from an approved Massey Ferguson dealer. In the same way, you must only use accessories specifically
adapted to your tractor.
Owing to the considerable variation in operating conditions, it is not possible for the manufacturer to
formulate complete or absolute assertions in its publications concerning the performance or operating
methods of its machines or to accept liability for any loss or damage which may result from such
assertions or possible errors or omissions.
If the tractor is to be used in abnormal conditions which could cause damage (use in deep water or in
paddy fields for instance), you should consult your Massey Ferguson dealer to obtain special instructions to
prevent the warranty from becoming void.

ACT002034A
1. Safety instructions and safety points - Warranty

These tractors are designed only for usual farming activities (intended use). Use for any other activity
(particularly forestry work) is considered to be contrary to the intended use.
Strict compliance with the repairs, service and operating conditions as specified by Massey Ferguson is
also an essential component of the intended use.
IMPORTANT: Massey Ferguson accepts no responsibility in the event of damage to equipment or
personal injury resulting from improper use.
The tractor must only be used, serviced and repaired by personnel who have full knowledge of its specific
features and who are aware of the applicable safety measures (prevention of accidents).
Customers are strongly advised to contact a Massey Ferguson dealer in the event of after-sales problems
and for any adjustments which may be necessary.

• all roof hatch, cab doors and cab windows are closed
• cab ventilation is running
• air filter is clean and is serviced under maintenance interval (refer to service guide). When replacing
the filter, only a filter certified for at least category 2 cabs is permitted. Activated carbon filters do
not improve the cab's level of protection. Always refer to the user instructions provided with the
filter.
• Alternative 3 (cab under category 4): The cab is equipped with protection against hazardous substances
(agricultural chemicals etc.) in the form of dust, aerosols and fumes. For pesticide spraying, tractors
fitted with these cabs must also have a specially designed filter for category 4 cabs.
This protection (category 4 of standard EN 15695-1:2009) is provided under the following conditions:
• all roof hatch, cab doors and cab windows are closed
• cab ventilation is running
• air filter is clean and is serviced under maintenance interval (refer to service guide).
Given the risk associated with contaminants entering the cab when opening the door to enter or exit
the vehicle, this protection is designed to supplement, but not necessarily replace, the use of personal
protective equipment when working in an environment with aerosols and/or fumes, such as pesticides.
The chemical manufacturer's instructions concerning the use of personal protective equipment must be
followed.
When replacing the filter, only a filter certified for at least category 4 cabs is permitted.
Always refer to the user instructions provided with the filter. Once spraying operations are complete, it
is important to return the special filter to its case and replace it with a standard anti-dust filter.

Instructor (passenger) seat

• If an instructor (passenger) seat is provided, protection for the occupant of the seat is provided by the
same roll-over protective structure (ROPS) that protects the operator.
• This seat may only be used to transport a passenger when driving on public roads.
• Always use the seat belt correctly adjusted.

1.6.2 Activated carbon filter information

WARNING:
Due to the risk of contaminants entering the cab when the door is opened to enter or exit,
use of a carbon filter is intended to supplement but not necessarily replace the use of
personal protective equipment when operating in an environment containing aerosols
and/or vapors, such as pesticides.
The specific chemical manufacturer’s instructions regarding personal protective
equipment (PPE) must be followed. If the cab being fitted with this filter does not already
have a safety sign like the one included with this filter, install the safety sign in a
prominent place inside the cab in view of the operator.
This filter is designed to reduce the concentration of aerosols and vapors entering the cab. To be effective,
it must have an effective seal to prevent leakage around the filter and must be used in a cab air system
that does not have leaks, especially in the zone between the filter and the fan. In addition, the cab and its
ventilation system must be capable of maintaining a positive pressure inside the cab and an air flow of at
least 30 cubic meters per hour (18 cubic feet per minute).
The cab with carbon filter is intended to be used as only one part of a managed system of occupational
health and safety, as noted below:

Operator Enclosures as Part of an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS)
Many self-propelled agriculture vehicles have operator enclosures (cabs) for comfort and protection of the
operator and riders. The cab can provide an effective physical barrier between the occupants and the
environment, but that barrier must, by necessity of occupant respiration, allow air to enter and exhaust the
cab. This requirement is met by the cab’s heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system.
The HVAC system should employ a filter through which air entering the cab is first passed for contaminant
reduction. Filters should also be provided in the recirculation air-stream to reduce airborne contaminants
already in the cab air space. In either application, these filters must be designed specifically for the HVAC
system within which they are operating. The filters must also incorporate the correct media required to
remove the specific air-born contaminant for which it is being employed.

26 MF 7700 - Maintenance
ACT002034A
 1. Safety instructions and safety points - Warranty

For such applications, the HVAC system must be of robust design, manufacture and maintenance. In such
a system, fresh air and cab pressurization requirements are provided by an air supply drawn through a filter
with negligible filter bypass.
Even with an appropriate cab and HVAC system, there are other opportunities for contaminates to enter
the cab. While outside the cab, a person can become contaminated on his/her body or clothing.
Contaminated objects can be brought into the cab. Another potential for cab contamination exists when
doors or windows are open in a contaminated environment.
In any case, whenever the cab interior has been contaminated, the effectiveness of the cab to provide
contamination protection will be diminished. Health and safety for agricultural machine operators as well as
others working in, on or around these machines can only be addressed through a comprehensive program.
Such a program is defined as an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS). While
cabs may be used as an effective engineering control within an OHSMS, this is not intended to imply that
the cab alone is appropriate for any specific application.
That determination can only be made by those responsible for the OHSMS in a specific application. It is the
responsibility of those charged with managing the use of the vehicle on which the cab is attached to define
and manage an appropriate OHSMS, and ensure that all federal, state and local regulatory requirements are
followed.
Cabs should not be used as a replacement for any other engineering control or PPE that has been
specifically required by federal, state or local regulatory authorities.

Hierarchy of Controls
The Hierarchy of Controls, in their preferred order of action:
1. Elimination
2. Substitution of less hazardous materials, processes, operations or equipment
3. Engineering controls
4. Warnings
5. Administrative controls
6. Personal protective equipment (PPE)

Continuous Improvement Cycle

Cabs should only be used to control operator air contaminant exposures within an OHSMS. This
management system must consider occupational safety and health as a continuous improvement cycle
that includes these on-going processes:
1. Management, Leadership and Employee Participation: This step in the cycle involves the formulation
of the management system, the establishment of policy, statements of responsibility and the
integration of the employees into the management system.
2. Planning: This step is based upon initial and going reviews of the management system and numerous
factors affecting occupational safety and health within an organization. Included in these reviews is a
review of the hazard, risks and controls and data collected to evaluate the hazards and the efficacy of
the control measures. In explanatory comments, exposure measurements are included as part of the
assessment processes. The results of audits and measurements are also to be reviewed.
3. Implementation and Operation: This section describes the organization components of a occupational
safety and health program. It describes the hierarchy of controls mentioned above and several broad
classes of management function. Among these requirements are employee training and evaluation of
employee training. Furthermore, this section requires a written, clearly documented occupational
safety and health program.
4. Evaluation and Corrective Actions: The section specifically requires management processes to monitor
and evaluate hazards, risks and their controls. Explanatory comments note that this includes
quantitative measures of worker exposure. Practically, this involves physically testing the efficiency of
the cab being used as an engineering control within an OHSMS.

5. Management System Review: Management is required to review the management system to ensure
its suitability, adequacy and effectiveness. This cycle includes provisions for exposure monitoring and
the monitoring of control measure performance. It is the responsibility of the manager of the safety
and health program to determine how worker exposure to air contaminants and other hazards are to
be controlled. It is also the responsibility of this manager to take whatever actions are needed to
control work-place hazards. This includes but is not limited to exposure assessment, audits of varies
programs such respiratory protection, ventilation system maintenance, etc.

Limitations of Cabs Used in Hazardous Environments:

While it may seem that respiration (breathing) exposure would present the greatest risk for personal
exposure to contaminants, this is not the case when working with pesticides. The most prevalent method
of exposure for applicators and those working around agricultural pesticides is through dermal (skin)
contact.
Dermal contact with contaminants may occur directly from air-borne contaminants. It may also happen
when contaminants are transferred from one object to another or when air-borne contaminants settle on
objects that are subsequently contacted. Any surfaces in or out of the cab that have been contaminated
are potential hazards for dermal exposure.
Within the cab, seats, upholstery, controls and other surfaces that become contaminated will pose such a
hazard. In addition to dermal exposure, a contaminated cab interior will also pose a respiration hazard as
the contaminant may, after settling on a surface, become air-borne once again whereby it may be inhaled.
Recirculation filters can be used to help reduce these contaminates from the cab interior air space. When a
vehicle is operated in an environment where air-born contaminants exist, the cab can be an effective
engineering control for reduction of exposure risk to persons within it.
In order for a cab to be used for this purpose, it must be of appropriate design. It must also be
manufactured, maintained, tested and operated according to the specific requirements defined by
evaluation of the hazards.
No cab should ever be considered an effective engineering control unless it has been qualified as such
within a comprehensive OHSMS. While the cab manufacturer can design and manufacture a cab to
physical specifications, the cab manufacturer can not qualify the cab as an appropriate engineering control
for any specific application.
Site-specific information is needed to evaluate the appropriateness of control measures. To use the cab to
control hazards, the managers of the OHSMS must carefully consider and evaluate the effectiveness of all
engineering controls in their specific application.

The Cab as an Engineering Control

The engineering control requirements of the respiratory protection regulation may be fulfilled by the
application of a cab, but this can only be done properly within an OHSMS. Elements of such a program are:
1. Assessment of the hazard with identification of the risk involved.
2. A survey of the machine and the cab involved in the hazardous operation.
3. Reviewing the cab ventilation system and the filter to ensure the filter provides the reduction in
contaminants required.
4. Defining how long the filter can be used in this application.
5. Testing the cab ventilation system to ensure it provides the protection required for the operation to be
performed. This also includes a review of any monitoring equipment to ensure it is working properly.
6. Repair and/or replacement of any defects or defective equipment found.
7. Retesting of the cab air system as required.
8. Recording in the appropriate log book all information regarding the test results, and repairs and
replacement of parts and/or components.
9. Assessment of the effectiveness of the program at a specified time in the cycle of the activity.
