SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

TRANSPORT SAFETY

Comply with state and local laws governing highway safety and movement of farm machinery on public roads.

The use of flashing amber lights is acceptable in most localities. However, some localities prohibit their use. Local laws should be checked for all highway lighting and marking requirements.

When driving the tractor and equipment on the road or highway under 20 mph (32 kph) at night or during the day, use flashing amber warning lights and a slow moving vehicle (SMV) identification emblem.

Always be sure the implement is in the proper raised position for transport.

Reduce speed when transporting mounted implements to avoid bouncing and momentary loss of steering control.

Plan your route to avoid heavy traffic.

Always install transport locks, pins or brackets before transporting.

Do not drink and drive!

Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.

Turn curves or go up or down hills only at a low speed and at a gradual steering angle. Make certain that at least 20% of the tractor’s weight is on the front wheels to maintain safe steerage. Slow down on rough or uneven surfaces, and loose gravel.

Use extreme care and maintain minimum ground speed when transporting on hillside, over rough ground and when operating close to ditches or fences. Be careful when turning sharp corners.

Never allow riders on either tractor or cutter. Falling off can kill.

Be a safe and courteous driver. Always yield to oncoming traffic in all situations, including narrow bridges, intersections, etc.

Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph). Reduce speed on rough roads and surfaces.

Use hardened hitch pins with retainers when attaching to pull-type machines.

Use a safety chain to prevent unexpected separation with pull-type models.
