PRE-OPERATION TRANSPORTING
Be certain your forage box is properly mounted to the running gear. Consult your dealer if you have any ques- tions about the tie down kit from the manufacturer and il- lustrated in the parts listing of this manual.
DO NOT fill the cross conveyor unloading area with for- age to get extra capacity. Overloading puts unnecessary pressures and strains on the cross conveyor and auger drive.
This forage box is to be operated with 540 rpm PTO ONLY. Set your tractor drawbar to conform to the stan- dard dimensions as shown on the following illustration. This will ensure that the PTO drive shaft will not be over extended.
Always disconnect the PTO drive shaft from the tractor and return it to the PTO storage bracket on the unloading unit before transporting. Failure to do this may result in equipment damage.
If you have a fold down cross conveyor extension, al- ways transport with this extension folded up to reduce your width. Check and observe that the rear discharge door is completely latched closed before traveling on roadways.
