Still getting used to my new to me 2520. How many people actually use their seat belt?

vintagemilano use the seatbelt, even if you have to cash in on the seatbelt 1 time during the ownership, it will be well worth it :)

Keep the rubber side down :cool:

I use my seatbelt pretty much all the time for a couple of reasons. Our place is pretty rough and the seatbelt keeps me from getting thrown around as much. It also helps me get that "seat of the pants" feedback on what the tractor is doing. Lastly, if I do ever roll this thing not being belted in makes the ROPS just another hard piece of metal that can squish me like a bug. :D
:D

I wear my seatbelt on my tractor whenever I'm on it. To put this in perspective I've never worn my seatbelt in my truck and often ride my MC without my helmet. For some reason my gut tells me when I'm on the tractor wear it.

I wear mine whenever I am using the loader and in unfamiliar places. Finish mowing on my lawn even though I have some steep slopes I don't.

All the time, with the occasional exception of backing out of the garage.

I strongly suggest you get in the habit of using it, vintagemilano

I use the seat belt when I have the rollbar up. I do not if the roll bar is down.
