Transporting Safety Instructions and Practices

Be particularly careful when transporting the Implement with the Tractor. Turn curves or go

certain, by adding front ballast, that at least 20% of the tractor's weight is on the front wheels to prevent rearing
up, loss of steering control or Tractor tip-over. Slow down on rough or uneven surfaces to prevent loss of
steering control which could result in property damage or possible injury. Do not transport unless 3-Point lift
lever is fully raised and in the latched transport position. Dropping implement in transport can cause serious
damage to the tractor and/or Implement and possibly cause the operator or others to be injured or killed.
Allow sufficient clearance for the Implement to swing outward while turning. Implements

solid object while turning will cause equipment damage and possible injury.

gravity for the tractor and has increased the possibility of overturn.
