6. DRIVING THE TRACTOR AND MOWER

Safe tractor transport requires the operator possess a thorough knowledge of the model being operated and
precautions to take while driving with an attached implement. Ensure the tractor has the capacity to handle the
weight of the mower and the tractor operating controls are set for safe transport. To ensure safety while driving the
tractor with an attached mower, review the following.
DANGER!
This Implement is wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting
this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard
rails, concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the
Implement and Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious
injury, or even death. Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles.
