OPERATION

9. DRIVING THE TRACTOR AND MOWER

Safe tractor transport requires the operator possess a thorough knowledge of the model being operated and precautions to take while driving with an attached implement. Ensure the tractor has the capacity to handle the weight of the mower and the tractor operating controls are set for safe transport. To ensure safety while driving the tractor with an attached mower, review the following.

WARNING! Transport only at safe speeds. Serious accidents and injuries can result from operating equipment at unsafe speeds. Understand the Tractor and Mower and how it handles before transporting on streets and highways. Make sure the Tractor steering and brakes are in good condition and operate properly. Before transporting the Tractor and Mower, determine the safe transport speeds for you and the equipment. Make sure you abide by the following rules:

1.Test the Tractor at a slow speed and increase the speed slowly. Apply the Brakes smoothly to determine the stopping characteristics of the Tractor and Mower. As you increase the speed of the Tractor the stopping distance increases. Determine the maximum safe transport speed for you and this Equipment.

2.Test the equipment at a slow speed in turns. Increase the speed through the turn only after you determine that it is safe to operate at a higher speed. Use extreme care and reduce your speed when turning sharply to prevent the Tractor and Mower from turning over. Determine the maximum safe turning speed for you and this equipment before operating on roads or uneven ground.

3.Only transport the Tractor and Mower at the speeds that you have determined are safe and which allow proper control of the equipment.

Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with weak or faulty brakes. When operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance increases, use extreme care and reduce your speed in these conditions. When operating in traffic, always use the Tractor’s flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be aware of traffic around you and watch out for the other guy. (SG-19)

DANGER!

This Implement is wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard rails, concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the Implement and Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious injury, or even death. Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles.
