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. 
Use A Safety Chain
▲ A safety chain will help control 
drawn machinery should it 
separate from the tractor drawbar.
▲ Use a chain with the strength 
rating equal to or greater than the 
gross weight of the towed 
machinery.
▲ Attach the chain to the tractor 
drawbar support or other specified 
anchor location. Allow only 
enough slack in the chain to 
permit turning.
▲ Do not use safety chain for towing.
▲ Maximum transport speed for an 
attached 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. 
▲ As a guideline, use the following 
maximum speed weight ratios for 
an attached implement:
20 mph when weight of attached 
implement is less than or equal to 
the weight of machine towing the 
implement.
10 mph when weight of attached 
implement exceeds weight of 
machine towing implement but 
not more than double the weight.
▲ IMPORTANT: Do not tow a load 
that is more than double the weight 
of the machine towing the load.
Transport 
Machinery Safely
▲ Comply with state and local laws.
▲ Use towing vehicle and trailer of 
adequate size and capacity. 
▲ Secure equipment towed on a 
trailer with tie downs and chains.
▲ Sudden braking can cause a trailer 
to swerve and upset. Reduce 
speed if trailer is not equipped with 
brakes.
▲ Avoid contact with any over head 
utility lines or electrically charged 
conductors.
▲ Engage park brake when stopped 
on an incline.
Practice Safe Maintenance
▲ Understand procedure before doing 
work. Use proper tools and 
equipment, refer to Operator’s 
Manual for additional information.
▲ Work in a clean dry area.
▲ Lower attached implement to the 
ground, put tractor in park, turn off 
engine, and remove key before 
performing maintenance.
▲ Allow implement to cool before 
working on it.
▲ Disconnect battery ground cable (-) 
before servicing or adjusting 
electrical systems or before welding 
on implement.
▲ Do not grease or oil implement 
while it is in operation.
▲ Inspect all parts. Make certain 
parts are in good condition & 
installed properly.
▲ Remove buildup of grease, oil, or 
debris.
▲ Remove all tools and unused parts 
from implement before operation.
