WARNING
When driving the windrower on public roadways:
• Obey all highway traffic regulations in your area. Arrange to have pilot vehicles in the front and the rear of the
windrower, if doing so is required by law.
• Display a slow-moving vehicle emblem and flashing warning lights, unless these actions are prohibited by law.
• If the width of the attached header impedes other vehicle traffic, remove the header and install a MacDon-
approved weight box on the windrower. This will allow the windrower to be driven safely on roadways without an
attached header.
WARNING
Do NOT drive the windrower on a road or highway at night or in conditions that reduce visibility, such as fog or rain.
The width of the windrower may not be apparent under these conditions.
CAUTION
Familiarize yourself with the width regulations and lighting and marking requirements in your region before attempting
to drive the windrower on a public road.
Before driving the windrower on a roadway:
1. Ensure header engage switch (A) is off (down position).
2. Clean the flashing amber lights, red tail lights, and
headlights, and ensure they are working properly.
3. Clean all reflective surfaces and slow moving vehicle signs.
4. Adjust the interior rear view mirror and clean the windows.
5. Ensure the header (if it is attached) is fully raised and the
header lift safety props are engaged.
6. If the width of the attached header impedes other vehicle
traffic, remove the header and install a MacDon-approved
weight box. For instructions, refer to
