Transport
Electrocution Hazard: To prevent serious injury or death from
electric shock, keep clear of overhead power lines when
transporting, folding, unfolding or operating all air drill
components. Machine is not grounded. At higher voltages,
electrocution can occur without direct contact.
Great Plains recommends transporting the assembly
without seed loaded in the cart. Although designed for
highway movement with full hoppers, the additional
weight of seed may cause the implement assembly to
exceed the rated towing and stopping ability of the
tractor, makes the assembly more difficult to control and
stop, and increases wear on cart tires and wheel
bearings.
Make sure the tractor weighs at least 2 ⁄
3
(67%) of the
assembled drill, including any material load. Check the
table at the bottom of this page for weights of various
configurations.
Loss of Control Hazard: Towing the drill at high speeds or
with a vehicle that is not heavy enough can lead to loss of
vehicle control. Loss of vehicle control can lead to serious
road accidents, injury and death. To reduce the hazard:
▲ Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph).
▲ Do not tow a assembly that, when fully loaded, weighs more
than 1.5 times the weight of the towing vehicle.

Unstable Load Hazard:
The implement is designed to hitch to a Great Plains air-drill
cart only. Hitching the implement to any vehicle other than a
Great Plains air-drill cart will create an unstable towing load
and can lead to road accidents, injury and death. To avoid the
hazard, transport the implement only when hitched to a Great
Plains air-drill cart.
