Towing Safety - Toro 79501 Operator's Manual

Towing Safety

•
Do not attach towed equipment except at the hitch
point.
•
Follow the attachment manufacturer's
recommendation for weight limits for towed
equipment and towing on slopes.
•
Never allow children or others in or on towed
equipment.
•
On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may
cause loss of traction and loss of control. Reduce
towed weight and slow down.
•
Stopping distance increases with the weight of the
towed load. Travel slowly and allow extra distance
to stop.
•
Make wide turns to keep the attachment clear of
the machine.
•
Do not tow a load that weighs more than the
towing machine.
