Roll-Over Protective Structure and Safety Belts
2007 HUV 4421 Gasoline and Diesel Vehicle Owner’s Manual Page 15
ROLL-OVER PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE AND SAFETY BELTS
All HUV 4421 vehicles are equipped with a Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) and safety belts for each
occupant. See following WARNING.
ý WARNING
• The ROPS must be properly installed before operating the vehicle. Husqvarna strongly urges
that the vehicle’s occupants be properly restrained at all times with the safety belts provided.
Pregnant woman: Consult your doctor for specific recommendations. The safety belt should be worn securely
and as low as possible over the hips and not on the waist.
Injured person: Depending on the injury, first check with your doctor for specific recommendations.
To secure the safety belt, sit up straight and well back in the seat. Pull the safety belt out of the retractor and
insert the tab into the buckle. A click will be heard when the tab locks into the buckle. Position the lap belt as
low as possible on the hips – not on the waist.
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop. It also may lock if the occupant leans forward too quickly.
A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend, and the occupant can move freely. If the safety belt cannot
be pulled out of the retractor, firmly pull the belt and release it. It should then pull smoothly out of the retractor.
To release the safety belt, press the buckle release button (1) and allow the belt to retract (Figure 7). If the
belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check for kinks or twists. Then make sure it remains free of twists
as it retracts.
ý WARNING
• Do not operate the vehicle with the ROPS removed. Doing so could result in property damage,
personal injury, or death.
• Do not remove or modify any component of the ROPS structure. Doing so will result in
voiding the ROPS certification and could weaken the ROPS, resulting in serious injury or
death.
• Do not operate the vehicle if the ROPS is damaged. If the ROPS is damaged, replace the
structure. Do not attempt repair.
• The driver and passenger must be restrained at all times with the safety belts provided to help
prevent injury in the event of sudden braking, collision, or roll-over.
• In the event of a roll-over, do not attempt to jump or otherwise exit the vehicle. Remain seated
with safety belt fastened and with arms and legs inside the vehicle.
