Tractor Requirements
The figures in the table below represent a limited number
of configurations. The weight of your air drill can vary by
hundreds of kilograms, even if it is the same base model,
due to installed options and/or aftermarket equipment.
If your tractor weight or capability is in question, take
your empty air drill to a scale and get a precise weight.
Transport Checklist
❑ Plan the route. Avoid steep hills. Keep clearances in
mind. Folded, your NTA607/2007HD Drill is nearly
4m (13ft) high and is 3m (9.75ft) wide.
❑ Hitch.
Make hydraulic, electrical and optional braking con-
nections. See “Hitching Tractor to Air Drill” on
page 22.
❑ Close hopper lids (page 43).
❑ Check that ladders (page 42) and markers (page 58)
are stowed.
❑ If unfolded, raise, fold and lock.
See “Fold: Summary of Steps” on page 33.
❑ If drill is equipped with optional brakes:
With tractor in Park, and with tractor parking brake
set, release drill parking brakes (page 40).
❑ Always have lights on for highway operation.
❑ Comply with all national, regional and local safety
laws when traveling on public roads.

and increases tire and brake wear.
