[QUOTE="Markle, post: 129765, member: 19357"] I have the 743 and if the diesel engine is running, it will run til fuel is shut off. I fully expect it will run with ROPS cab up, but I would never do this. my ROPS cab doesn’t lock in place. It’s dang heavy and I wouldn’t trust it to stay up with my head in there. I always strap it so it can’t fall. Maybe I’m just overprotective, but I’m still here. I can imagine if the machine is running, ROPS cab up , and you bump a drive stick (brakes can fail), bad outcome is possible. The foot pedals for lift and tilt should be locked with lap bar up, disengaged. I wouldn’t assume it. You must verify. These machines are getting old(er)….safety features can fail or may have been bypassed by previous owners. SAFETY FIRST! [/QUOTE]
