Transport Machinery Safely

Maximum transport speed for drill is 20 mph (32 kph).
Some rough terrains require a slower speed. Sudden
braking can cause a towed load to swerve and upset.

Drill must be raised, locked-up, folded and locked for trans-

port.

Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph). Never travel at a speed

which does not allow adequate control of steering and stop-
ping. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with
brakes.

Comply with national, regional and local laws.
Do not tow a load that weighs more than 1.5x the weight of

the tractor. See page 26 for details.

Carry reflectors or flags to mark drill in case of breakdown

on the road.

Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions

when transporting. Refer to transport dimensions under
Specifications and Capacities” on page 125.

Shutdown and Storage

Clean out and safely store or dispose of residual chemicals.
Secure drill using blocks and transport locks. Lower open-

ers if not locked up.

Store in an area where children normally do not play.
