9. DRIVING THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT

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 implement and the tractor operating controls are set for safe transport. To ensure safety while
driving the tractor with an attached implement, review the following. OPS-U- 0012

Inspect cutter knives and knife pins for
looseness and excessive wear. Make sure the
mower is securely blocked up before crawling
beneath. Replace damaged, worn, and missing
knives as complete sets to maintain cuttershaft
balance.

Remove any grass or other debris which may
be wrapped around the cuttershafts.

Inspect the condition of deck skid shoes and
hardware. OPS-F- 0007

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.
