Recovery Transport; Towing The Tractor - New Holland Workmaster 50 Operator's Manual

Telescoping stabilizers and flex end links
WARNING
Machine damage can cause accidents!
Only operate three-point equipment with both
flex ends returned to the latched position.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
Telescoping stabilizers and lower lift arms with flex ends
are a standard equipment, for the tractor.
The telescoping stabilizers (1) use a pin and multiple hole
arrangement for easy adjustment, for side to side move-
ment of the three-point linkage.
The flex ends (2) on the lower lift arms are adjusted by
pushing down on the clamp (3) and sliding the ends to the
desired length. Once the implement is attached, push in
on the flex ends until the ends are in the latched position
in the arms,
NOTICE: Cycle the three point linkage through the entire
travel and check for interference with the rear tires. If
interference is present, adjust stabilizers as needed.

RECOVERY TRANSPORT

Towing the tractor

WARNING
Loss of control hazard!
Do not tow the machine faster than 8 kph (5
mph). The steering is much slower and steer-
ing wheel effort is much greater without the
engine running.
Failure to comply could result in death or se-
rious injury.
NOTICE: The tractor should only be towed a short dis-
tance, such as out of a building. Do not tow on roadways
or as a method of transport.
If towing the tractor obey the following instructions
1. Use a strong chain when towing the tractor
2. Tow the tractor from the rear using only the drawbar,
rear tow hitch, or the three-point hitch.
3. Tow the tractor from the front using the tow pin in the
front weights or front support. Have an operator steer
and brake the tractor.
4. If possible, run the engine to provide lubrication, to
avoid damaging the transmission or other components
that turn, but that are not lubricated during towing,
such as the transmission and power steering.

WARNING
Hazard to bystanders!
Do not use cables or rope to tow the machine.
If the cable or rope breaks or slips, it may whip
back with enough force to cause serious in-
jury. When using a chain, attach the chain with
the hook's open side facing UP. If the hook
slips, it will drop down instead of flying up.
