2. Drive the Tractor on Roads Safely
! WARNING: Avoid injury! ! CAUTION
Exercise due caution when driving the tractor at
a transport speed.
●We recommend that the user/operator use the
turn signal/hazard lights when traveling on
public roads. Before operating the tractor on a
public roadway, be aware of relevant state or
local regulations in effect. An implement safety
lighting kit is available from your local Cub
Cadet Yanmar dealer.
●If local laws permit road travel, use the flashing
hazard lights and Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV)
emblems when traveling on public roadways.
● When operating the tractor on a roads, strictly
observe the following precautions:
• ALWAYS ensure that right side and left side
brakes are equally adjusted.
• ALWAYS ensure that the Slow Moving Vehicle
(SMV) emblem and hazard lights are clean and
clearly visible. If a towed or rear mounted
implement jeopardizes visibility of these safety
devices, install the Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV)
emblem and hazard lights on the implement.

Vehicle (SMV) emblem
●Turn the hazard lights and headlights ON, unless
prohibited by law.
●Secure the implement being towed with lock hitch
pins and safety chains.
●Drive the tractor slowly so that the tractor is under
control at all times. Slow down for travel on slopes,
rough roads, sharp turns or when transporting a
heavy rear mounted implement.
●Disengage the 4-wheel drive to prevent excessive
tire wear.
●NEVER coast downhill.
●Check whether the front wheel gearing is engaged.
●Remember that the braking characteristics differ
between the 2-wheel drive and 4-wheel drive
modes. ALWAYS be aware of the current drive
mode and use it properly.
●ALWAYS slow down before turning. High-speed
turns may cause the tractor to tip over.
●ALWAYS ensure that the Slow Moving Vehicle
(SMV) emblem is on the tractor and is clearly
visible.
●Strictly observe all the currently effective local
traffic and safety laws and regulations.
