SECTION 2 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 
 
2.8 
TOWING (Continued)
 
C.  To provide adequate braking when towing, the 
cargo bed should be loaded.  Load cargo bed to 
approximately one half (50%) of the towed load – 
not to exceed 500 lb (227 kg). 
D.  Reduce speed when towing.  Do Not tow loads 
in excess of 10 mph. 
E.  Do Not tow loads on slopes in excess of 10 
degrees (18% grade). 
F.  Do Not attempt to turn when descending a 
slope while towing. 
G.  Do Not carry children or others on trailer or 
towed attachment. 
H.  Do Not carry a load that you cannot safely 
control. 
I.  Always attach the trailer or towed attachment to 
the hitch provided on the machine.  Do not attempt 
to attach at any other point on the machine. 
J.  Do Not modify the hitch on the machine. 
K.  The trailer or towed attachment must be 
secured to the machine to prevent unexpected 
disconnect.  Use approved means to connect the 
trailer or towed attachment to the machine in 
accordance with the instructions provided with the 
trailer or attachment.  When using a ball type hitch, 
always use the correct size ball and latch securely. 
L.  Distribute load on trailer evenly and so that 
tongue weight does not exceed 100 lb (45 kg). 
M.  Do Not tow machine behind any other machine 
or vehicle. 
 
2.10 TRANSPORTING 
MACHINE 
The machine will fit in the bed of most full size pick-up 
trucks.  The truck or trailer used to transport the 
machine should have a rating of 3/4 ton (1500 lb/680 
kg) or greater.  When using ramps to load the machine, 
make sure that they are of sufficient capacity to support 
the machine weight (1230 lb/558 kg) and are positively 
secured to prevent slipping.  The towing vehicle must 
be of sufficient capacity to handle the weight of the 
trailer and machine and comply with all applicable laws 
such as trailer lights and registration. 
 
1.  Do Not rely on the park brake to keep machine from 
moving while transporting on truck or trailer.  Use 
straps, chains, cables or heavy ropes to secure 
machine to truck or trailer. 
2.  Do Not tow machine behind any other machine or 
vehicle.   
 
WARNING 
Transporting machine at highway speed may cause 
damage to optional accessories (windshield, 
sunshade, cab) or cause the hood to suddenly blow 
open.  The machine should be backed on the 
vehicle or trailer.  Reduce speed when transporting 
machine. 
 
 
2.11 WATER 
CROSSING 
Operating machine in water, crossing streams, rivers, 
and creeks is not recommended. Fast moving water 
can quickly move the machine off course causing loss 
of control that may result in injury or death.  Even 
shallow, still water can conceal hazards that if 
encountered could result in injury or death.  The final 
drive for the machine is through a belt. A wet belt may 
slip, leaving the machine and occupants stranded. 
 
WARNING 
DO NOT attempt to cross water with swift currents. 
Depth of water must be less than 8” and must be 
still. Operate machine in water only if absolutely 
necessary.  If water crossing is unavoidable, 
operate machine slowly and only after carefully 
inspecting crossing area for concealed hazards.
