9.4 Transporting Unit by Flatbed Trailer
Park flatbed on level area. Drive tractor onto center of flatbed to avoid uneven distribution of weight and staying
within local width restrictions. If boom is over local height restrictions, you will need to extend booms outward
enough to clear front of tractor when boom is pivoted forward. Pivot mower deck into a horizontal position, and
lower the boom until deck is slightly above trailer bed. Remove cylinder pin from outer end of the boom swivel
cylinder.
If trailer is not perfectly level, the boom will tend to swing towards the lower side. Have other
personnel ready to control its swinging motion when cylinder pin is removed.
Retract swivel cylinder and secure to main frame. Pivot boom forward to the center of flat bed. Lower deck
ontothe trailer bed, and shut off the tractor. The tractor and the mower head should now be chained down
securely to the trailer bed.

measure the height and width dimensions and gross
weight of the complete loaded unit. Ensure that the

the areas that will be traveled through. OPS-U- 0024
Use adequately sized and rated trailers and
equipment to transport the tractor and implement.

equipment required. Using adequately sized chains,
heavy duty straps, cables and/or binders, securely tie
down both the front and rear of the tractor utilizing the
proper tie down locations as specified by the tractor
