FOPS) as standard equipment to protect the operator
from rollover and falling objects. Check with your dealer if
the operator cab has been damaged. The seat belt must
be worn for rollover protection.

blocks, and hand tools encountered in operations such as
highway maintenance, landscaping, and other
construction sites.

Level II - Protection from falling trees, rocks: for machines
involved in site clearing, overhead demolition or forestry.
