clean and visible. If towed or rear-mounted equipment
obstucts these safety devices, install SMV emblem and
warning lamps on equipment. (See your John Deere
dealer)

Always turn light switch to dim lights position (A) when
meeting another vehicle. Never use flood lamps or any
other lights which could blind or confuse other drivers.

5. Drive slowly enough to maintain safe control at all
times. Before descending a hill, shift to a gear low
enough to control speed without using brakes. Slow
down for rough ground, and sharp turns, especially
when transporting heavy, rear mounted equipment.
