The purpose of the ROPS instruction film is to inform that nothing should be attached to the ROPS without first referring to the Operation and Maintenance Manual for the applicable machine. The Operation and Maintenance Manual recommends that anyone who wishes to secure an attachment or make a modification to the ROPS should consult their Caterpillar Dealer.
