OPERATION

To avoid overturns, drive the tractor with care and at safe speeds, especially when operating over rough ground, crossing ditches or slopes, and turning corners. Tractor wheel tread spacing should be increased when working on inclines or rough ground to reduce the possibility of tipping.

Use extreme caution when operating on steep slopes.

Keep the tractor in a low gear when going downhill.

DO NOT coast or free-wheel downhill.

9.5 Crossing Ditches and Steep Inclines

When crossing ditches with steep banks or going up sharp inclines, it is possible that the driveline inner profile will penetrate into the outer housing to its maximum depth until the assembly becomes solid (driveline is at its extreme shortest length). This type of abusive operation may result in damage to the tractor and cutter components in the form of severe catastrophic failures.

WARNING!

Damage resulting from over-collapse of the driveline’s inner profile and its outer housing

 

 

may allow the driveline to come loose from the Tractor which could cause bodily injury to

 

the operator or bystanders and/or extensive damage to the Tractor or Implement

When confronted with an incline or ditch, do not approach from an angle which is perpendicular or straight on as damage to over collapse of the driveline may occur.

Inclines and ditches should be approached along a line which is at an angle as shown. This type of path will reduce the possibility of over-collapse of the driveline and resulting damage. If the gradient is so steep that such as approach increases the possibility

of a tractor roll-over, select an alternate crossing path.
