l Towing
m
l Never attempt to tow anything without a trailer hitch. Failure to use a
proper hitch could cause the tractor to overturn resulting in severe per-
sonal injury or equipment damage.
l Never allow anyone to ride in the trailer.
l Traveling and turning at high speeds while towing a trailer or other at-
tachment is dangerous. Use 1st gear when towing a trailer or attach-
ment over rough ground.
l Avoid sudden starts and stops while towing. The momentum of the
trailer or attachment could cause loss of control resulting in an accident
and severe personal injury or equipment damage.
l The weight of a trailer increases stopping distances; use extra care,
especially when operating on a slope.
Use only those attachments which’ are designed for use with this tractor
(Category 1). If you have any questions or doubts about the suitability of
any other attachments, consult your authorized Honda compact tractor
dealer.
I] Th e removal of any rear attachment is necessary when using the
draw plate for towing. If the rear attachment is not removed, damage to
the tractor and/or the attachments can occur.
1. Maximum towing weight:
1,000 kg (2,205 Ibs) including the weight of the trailer.
m Exceeding the maximum towing weight could lead to loss of
control and cause an accident resulting in severe personal injury or equip-
ment damage.
