3.5.1 Transporting a Unit: Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to transport the machine.
Lock brake and block wheels. Securely fasten the machine to the trailer or truck
with straps, chains, cable, or ropes. Be sure that the trailer or truck has all
necessary lighting and marking as required by law. Secure a trailer with a safety
chain.

♦ This unit does not have proper turn
signals, lights, reflective markings, or a
slow moving vehicle emblem. These
items are required to drive on a public
street or roadway.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦ Driving on a street or roadway without
such equipment is dangerous and can
lead to accidents causing personal injury.
♦ Driving on a street or roadway without
such equipment may also be a violation of
State laws and the operator may be
subject to traffic tickets and/or fines.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦ Do not drive a unit on a public street or
roadway.
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦ Loading a unit on a trailer or truck
increases the possibility of tip-over.

♦ Tip-over of the unit could cause serious
injury or death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦ Use extreme caution when operating a
unit on a ramp.
♦ Use only a single, full width ramp; DO
NOT use individual ramps for each side of
the unit.
♦ If individual ramps must be used, use
enough ramps to create an unbroken
ramp surface wider than the unit.
♦ DO NOT exceed a 15° angle between
ramp and ground or between ramp and
trailer or truck.
♦ Avoid sudden acceleration while driving
unit up a ramp.
