Published · Updated

An electric tractor is quiet, and that is part of the risk: people nearby may not hear it coming. These habits keep you, your family and your workers safe.

Before you start

  1. Read the operating manualLearn the machine's controls, its speed ranges and how it stops before the first job. Each Sukoon machine comes with its own manual.
  2. Inspect itBefore each use, check the tyres, the attachment's mounting and the cables for damage or wear. Do not work with anything loose or damaged.
  3. Know how to stopKnow how to switch the machine off at once, so you can stop it quickly if anything goes wrong.

While you work

  1. Stay alertKeep your attention on the work: no phone calls or music while driving.
  2. Keep clear of moving partsKeep hands and feet away from wheels, blades and attachments, and keep children, bystanders and animals well away. The machine is quiet, so they may not hear it.
  3. Take slopes with careOn slopes and wet ground, drive slowly. The Haldhar 750's low speed range and full-time 4×4 are made for such ground.

Charging safely

  1. Use the supplied chargerCharge with the charger that came with the machine, from a sound socket, in a dry place.
  2. Ask when unsureIf anything about the machine or its battery looks wrong, stop and contact your Sukoon dealer, or write to service@sukoonsolutions.com.
