Remember all farm equipment is powerful and can remove parts of your body before you realize you're in trouble. Respect the power of your equipment. Keep loose clothing away from spinning parts such as drive shafts, etc. Wear gloves and good safety glasses.

If you have a neighbor with farming experience, ASK! Most are glad to help and teach.

Shut the pto (power take off which powers the drive shaft to equipment) off and wait until the equipment has quit turning/running before you get off the tractor.

Set BOTH brakes when parking the tractor. ALWAYS put the tractor in Neutral and depress the clutch fully before starting.

Farm machinery can and will kill you if you get careless and you don't have to be a newbie for it to happen. In spite of the risks, farming is wonderful.

You will find a wealth of good information on this site.

The only dumb question is the one you didn't ask.
