To not only protect yourself but
the safety of your loved ones, the
best thing you can do for them is to
say no when they request a ride on
the tractor.
Tractors are for work, not for
recreation or transportation.
Notice that your tractor has one
seat this seat is, obviously, for
the operator only.
Make sure no one has climbed
aboard the tractor or trailing
equipment without your
knowledge. Be certain everyone is
out of the way before you move.
And don’t use your tractor for
baby-sitting purposes. Arrange for
suitable child care if necessary.—
