Sudden braking can cause a towed load to swerve and upset. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with brakes.

Use the following maximum speed

-tow load weight ratios as a guideline:

20 mph when weight is less than or equal to the weight of tractor.

10 mph when weight is double the weight of tractor.

IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load that is more than double the weight of tractor.

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.

Practice Safe Maintenance
