8.3 Driving the Tractor and Boom
Start off driving at a slow speed and gradually increase your speed while maintaining complete control of the
tractor. Never operate the tractor at speeds that cannot be safely handled or which will prevent the operator
from stopping quickly during an emergency. If the power steering or engine ceases operating, stop the tractor
immediately as the tractor will be difficult to control.
Perform turns with the tractor and mower at slow
speeds to determine how the tractor with and
attached implement handles a turn. Determine the
safe speed to maintain proper control of the tractor
when making turns. When turning with the
implement the overall working length and width of
the unit is increased. Allow additional clearance for
the unit when turning or when passing large
obstructions.
To avoid overturns, drive the tractor with care and
at safe speeds, especially when operating over
rough ground, crossing ditches or slopes, and
turning corners. Use extreme caution when
operating on steep slopes. Keep the tractor in a low
gear when going downhill. DO NOT coast or free-
wheel downhill.
