OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
4. Check that tires are of proper size, load rating, and
inflated to manufacture specifications before
transporting. Check wheel lug bolts to insure
tightness.
5. Know the transport heights and widths of the unit
before transporting. Attachments such as leveling
harrows can increase the transport dimensions of the
implement. Use caution when transporting near
bridges and power lines.
Electrocution can occur without direct contact.
6. Raise the unit to full transport height.
7. Install transport locks on both lift cylinders. Do not
depend solely on implement hydraulics for transport.
(See Figure 4-13.)
Failure to use transport lock pins during
transport may result in permanent equipment
damage, serious injury, or death.
8. Transport during daylight hours whenever possible.
Always use flashing warning lights, except where
such use is prohibited by law. Make sure lights,
reflectors and SMV emblem are clearly visible and
operating. Remove any obstructions such as dirt,
mud, stalks or residue that restricts view before
transporting.
