8. OPERATING THE TRACTOR
Ex2900 / 3200 Operator's Manual
4. Transporting the Tractor on a Trailer
Avoid injury:
●Exercise extreme care when loading or unloading
the tractor to or from a trailer or truck.
●Close the fuel shut-off valve.
NOTE:
●Use a heavy-duty trailer to transport the tractor.
1. Drive the tractor forward onto the trailer.
2. Lower any implement onto the trailer deck.
3. Engage the parking brake securely.
4. Turn off the engine.
5. Remove the key from the starter key switch.
6. Close the fuel shut-off valve.
7. Tie down the tractor to the trailer with heavy-duty
straps, chains or cables. Direct both front and rear
straps down and outward from the tractor.
IMPORTANT:
●The trailer must have signs and lights required by law.
5. Operating on Slopes
Avoid injury. Be extremely cautious when driving the
tractor on a slope:
●To increase the traction power and provide 4-wheel
braking feature, engage the 4-wheel drive lever
before driving the tractor on a slope. Remember that
although the 4-wheel drive lever greatly assists in
approach to a steep slope, there is greater
possibility of a tip over.
●To improve braking power on sloped, frozen, wet or
graveled surfaces, engage the 4-wheel drive lever.
Add ballast to the tractor as necessary and travel at
a lower speed to prevent skidding and loss of
steering control.
●While driving the tractor, do not attempt to climb a
slope that is steeper than 15 degrees.
●Even on a slope that is not steeper than 15 degrees,
do not turn or change the traveling direction, or park
square to the slope.
