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, skid steers,
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.
