Transport
Machinery Safely
▲ Comply with state and local laws.
▲ Maximum transport speed for
implement is 20 mph. DO NOT
EXCEED. Never travel at a speed
which does not allow adequate
control of steering and stopping.
Some rough terrains require a
slower speed.
▲ Sudden breaking can cause a
towed load to swerve and upset.
Reduce speed if towed load is not
equipped with breaks.
▲ Use the following maximum
speed - tow load weight ratios as
a guideline:
▲ 20 mph when weight is less than
or equal to the weight of tractor.
▲ 10 mph when weight is double
the weight of tractor.
▲ IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load
that is more than double the
weight of tractor.
Use Safety
Lights and Devices
▲ Slow moving tractors, self-
propelled equipment, and towed
implements can create a hazard
when driven on public roads. They
are difficult to see, especially at
night.
▲ Flashing warning lights and turn
signals are recommended
whenever driving on public roads.
Use lights and devices provided
with implement.
Practice Safe Maintenance
▲ Understand procedure before
doing work. Use proper tools and
equipment, refer to Operator’s
Manual for additional information.
▲ Work in a clean dry area.
▲ Lower the implement to the
ground, put tractor in park, turn off
engine, and remove key before
performing maintenance.
▲ Allow implement to cool
completely.
▲ Do not grease or oil implement
while it is in operation.
▲ Inspect all parts. Make sure parts
are in good condition & installed
properly.
▲ Remove buildup of grease, oil or
debris.
▲ Remove all tools and unused
parts from implement before
operation.
Use A Safety Chain
▲ A safety chain will help control
drawn machinery should it
separate from the tractor
drawbar.
▲ Use a chain with the strength
rating equal to or greater than
the gross weight of the towed
machinery.
▲ Attach the chain to the tractor
drawbar support or other
specified anchor location. Allow
only enough slack in the chain to
permit turning.
▲ Do not use safety chain for
towing.
