Operation
WARNING
Loading a unit on a trailer or truck increases
the possibility of tip-over. Tip-over could
cause serious injury or death.
• Use extreme caution when operating a
unit on a ramp.
• Use only a single, full width ramp; Do
Not use individual ramps for each side
of the unit.
• If individual ramps must be used, use
enough ramps to create an unbroken
ramp surface wider than the unit.
• Do Not exceed a 15° angle between ramp
and ground or between ramp and trailer
or truck.
• Avoid sudden acceleration while driving
unit on a ramp.
Loading a Unit
Use extreme caution when loading units on trailers
or trucks. One full width ramp is required. If it is
not possible to use one full width ramp, use enough
individual ramps to simulate a full width continuous
ramp.
Ramp should be long enough so that the angles
between the ramp and the ground and the ramp and
the trailer or truck do not exceed 15°. A steeper angle
may cause mower deck components to get caught as
the unit moves from ramp to trailer or truck. Steeper
angles may also cause the unit to tip. If loading on or
near a slope, position the trailer or truck so it is on
the down side of the slope and the ramp extends up
the slope. This will minimize the ramp angle. The
trailer or truck should be as level as possible.
Important: Do Not attempt to turn the unit
while on the ramp, you may lose control and
drive off the side.
Avoid sudden acceleration when driving on a ramp.
