TOWING SAFETY
•
Check all local and state regulations regarding towing, licensing, and
lights before towing your log splitter.
•
Check before towing to make sure that the log splitter is correctly and
securely attached to the towing vehicle and that the safety chains are
secured to the hitch or bumper of the vehicle with enough slack to
allow turning. Always use a Class I, 2” ball with this log splitter.
• Do not
carry any cargo or wood on the log splitter.
• Do not
allow anyone to sit or ride on the log splitter.
•
Disconnect the log splitter from the towing vehicle before operating it.
•
Use care when backing up with the log splitter in tow to avoid jack-
knifing. Allow for added length of the log splitter when turning,
parking, crossing intersections and in all driving situations.
• Do not
exceed 45 mph when towing your log splitter.
Towing the log splitter at speeds higher than 45 mph could result
in loss of control, damage to the equipment, serious injury or death.
Adjust towing speed for terrain and conditions. Be extra cautious
when towing over rough terrain especially railroad crossings.
