Transporting
!
WARNING
Always raise wing and set transport lock before transporting
from one work site to another and before traveling on public
roadways. The wing can fall if not secured with transport lock
causing a serious injury or death.
!
WARNING
When traveling on public roads, use accessory lights, SMV
sign, clean reflectors, and other adequate devices to warn
operators in other vehicles of your presence. If cutter blocks
visibility of SMV sign, relocate SMV sign so it is visible from
the back at all times. Always comply with all federal, state,
and local laws.
!
WARNING
Do not exceed maximum transport speed of 20 MPH with
cutter attached. Travel below 20 MPH on rough terrain. The
cutter can lose a tire or tires can break apart causing the
operator to lose control of tractor and/or implement.
1. Select a safe ground speed when transporting from
one area to another. Maximum transport speed for
the Rotary Cutter is 20 mph. DO NOT EXCEED.
2. Be sure to reduce tractor ground speed when turning
and leave enough clearance so the cutter does not
contact obstacles such as buildings, trees, or fences.
3. Always raise cutter wing and set transport lock pin
before traveling on public roadways.
4. When traveling on roadways, transport in such a way
that faster moving vehicles may pass you safely.
5. Shift tractor to a lower gear when traveling over rough
or hilly terrain.
Road Side Cutting
When cutting road sides, Land pride recommends the
Rotary Cutter be equipped with double row chain guards
to stop flying objects and Land Pride’s LED Light Kit to
make operator and equipment more visible. For
additional information, refer to “Safety Guard Options”
on page 39 and “Light Kit Option (LED)” on page 36.
IMPORTANT: Make slow tight turns to the right and
left to determine if and at what angle the rear tractor
tires may come in contact with the deck and/or hitch.
IMPORTANT: Remove or cover SMV sign when
hauling cutter on a truck or trailer exceeding speeds
of 25 mph.
