Land Pride

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.

Transport

Machinery Safely

▲Comply with state and local laws.

▲Maximum transport speed for 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.

▲Sudden breaking can cause a towed load to swerve and upset. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with breaks.

▲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.

Transporting the Loader and Attachment

▲Always drive up the ramp with heavy end uphill. Engage parking brake.

▲Secure loader and attachments using tiedowns and chains. Use towing vehicle and trailer of adequate capacity.

Keep Riders

Off Machinery

▲Riders obstruct the operator’s view, they could be struck by foreign objects or thrown from the machine.

▲Never allow children to operate equipment.

Tractors With Cabs

Tractors Equipped With

ROPS

▲There should be sufficient clearance for the operator when mounted to a tractor with a cab or that is equipped with ROPS.

▲The ROPS may need to be extended or flipped around to obtain sufficient clearance.
