Extreme caution should be used when transporting the tractor and implement on public roadways. The tractor

lights to alert drivers of the tractor's presence.

Check your side view mirrors frequently and remember that vehicles will approach quickly because of the
tractor's slower speed. Be extremely cautious when the piece of equipment that you are towing is wider than
the tractor tire width and/or extends beyond your lane of the road.
Make sure that a proper size safety tow chain is secured between the tractor and implement before entering a
public road. OPS-U- 0019
