•REDUCE SPEED on inclines, on turns and in poor towing conditions.

•DO NOT TOW with trucks or other vehicles

•USE only properly sized and equipped tractor for towing equipment.

•FOLLOW all local traffic regulations.

TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS FOR TOWING OR TRANSPORTING IMPLEMENTS:

•ONLY TRANSPORT with tractor with ROPS in the raised position.

•USE properly sized and equipped tractor that exceeds implement weight by at least 20%

•KEEP 20% of tractor weight on front wheels to maintain safe steering.

BEFORE TRANSPORTING OR TOWING IMPLEMENT:

TRACTOR INSPECTION:

•CHECK steering and braking for proper operation and in good condition.

TOWED MOWERS - ENGAGE TRANSPORT LOCKS AND SAFETY CHAINS:

•INSTALL center axle cylinder transport stops or pins

•ATTACH implement SAFETY CHAIN to tractor

DETERMINE STOPPING CHARACTERISTICS OF TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT FOR TRANSPORTING OR TOWING:

BRAKING TESTS:

•APPLY brakes at increasing speeds

•Observe STOPPING distances increases with increased speeds.

•DETERMINE the maximum safe transport speed that does not exceed 20 mph

DETERMINE MAXIMUM TURNING SPEED BEFORE OPERATING ON ROADS OR UNEVEN GROUND:

•TEST equipment in slowly increasing speed in turns to determine it can be operated at higher speeds.

•USE REDUCED turning speeds in sharp turns to avoid equipment turning over.

WHEN TOWING OR TRANSPORTING EQUIPMENT:

•Always WEAR SEAT BELT when operating or transporting mower.

•USE low speeds to avoid overturn with raised wings.

•USE low speeds and gradual steering on curves, hills, rough or uneven surfaces and on wet roads
