Tractor and PTO Safety

A free beginner course for anyone who drives a farm-type tractor or works near one, built around the three main killers: overturns, run-overs and power take-off (PTO) entanglement. Learn the parts of the tractor in 3D, the ROPS and seat belt, PTO guarding, pre-use checks, hitching, ballast, towing, road use, the safe stop and what to do in an emergency. It is familiarisation only and does not replace the practical training, assessment and authorisation that your employer and the law require before you drive.
