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.
These are common practices that may or may not be applicable to the products described in
this manual.
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.
▲ Maximum transport speed for an
attached 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.
▲ As a guideline, use the following
maximum speed weight ratios for
an attached implement:
20 mph when weight of attached
implement is less than or equal to
the weight of machine towing the
implement.
10 mph when weight of attached
implement exceeds weight of
machine towing implement but
not more than double the weight.
▲ IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load
that is more than double the weight
of the machine towing the load.
Transport
Machinery Safely
▲ Comply with state and local laws.
▲ Use towing vehicle and trailer of
adequate size and capacity.
▲ Secure equipment towed on a
trailer with tie downs and chains.
▲ Sudden braking can cause a trailer
to swerve and upset. Reduce
speed if trailer is not equipped with
brakes.
▲ Avoid contact with any over head
utility lines or electrically charged
conductors.
▲ Engage park brake when stopped
on an incline.
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 attached implement to the
ground, put tractor in park, turn off
engine, and remove key before
performing maintenance.
▲ Allow implement to cool before
working on it.
▲ Disconnect battery ground cable (-)
before servicing or adjusting
electrical systems or before welding
on implement.
▲ Do not grease or oil implement
while it is in operation.
▲ Inspect all parts. Make certain
parts are in good condition &
installed properly.
▲ Replace parts on this machine with
genuine Land Pride parts only. Do
not alter this machine in a way
which will adversely affect its
performance.
▲ Remove buildup of grease, oil, or
debris.
▲ Remove all tools and unused parts
from implement before operation.
