6.12 Loading and Unloading

Use extreme caution when loading or unloading units on/off trailers or trucks. One full width ramp that
extends beyond the rear tires is recommended rather than individual ramps for each side of the unit. The
ramp should be long enough so that the angles between the ramp and the trailer or truck does not exceed
15 degrees. A steeper angle may cause the mower deck components to get caught as the unit moves from
ramp to trailer or truck. Always put the deck in the transport (up & locked) position when loading or
unloading. Never attempt to turn the mower around on the ramp. Avoid sudden acceleration when driving
up a ramp and sudden deceleration when backing down a ramp.
