IMPLEMENT TRANSPORT
Use the following precautions when attaching

and towing implements with the tractor:

Hook equipment to the drawbar only.
Be sure that the drawbar is locked in position

with the side wear blocks to keep it from

swinging side to side.
When transporting implements on the

highway, place the drawbar in the center

position to stabilize the tractor and towed

implement
Use the drawbar pin retainer on the drawbar

at all times to prevent the equipment from

unhitching from the tractor.
Use safety chains from the drawbar and

drawbar cage to the implement when on

public roads to prevent the equipment from

rolling into oncoming traffic or ditches should

the hitch pin be lost.
Use a safe towing speed as specified by the

implement manufacturer.
Use safety warning equipment as required by

law.

CAUTION: WHEN TOWING LOADS OR

IMPLEMENTS ABOVE 16 KM/H (10 MPH),

THE TOWED IMPLEMENT MUST NOT

EXCEED THE WEIGHT OF THE TRACTOR,
