14.2 Transporting on Public Roadways
Extreme caution should be used when transporting the tractor and mower on public roadways. The tractor
must be equipped with all required safety warning features including a SMV emblem and flashing warning
lights to alert drivers of the tractor’s presence. Remember that roadways are primarily designed for
automotive drivers and most drivers will not be looking out for you, therefore, you must look out for them.
Check your side view mirrors frequently and remember that vehicles will approach quickly because of the
tractor’s slower speed. Be extremely cautious when the piece of equipment that you are towing is wider than
the tractor tire width and/or extends beyond your lane of the road.
Make sure that a proper size safety tow chain is secured between the tractor, flex arm and mower before
entering a public road. Secure the center section at a safe transport height by placing additional stroke control
spacers on the center axle cylinder and then lower the mower. Secure the mower wings in the raised position
with the transport lock pins.
OPS-R-0036_E
Only tow the Implement behind a properly sized and equipped Tractor
which exceeds the weight of the Implement by at least 20%.
DO NOT
tow the Implement behind a truck or other type of vehicle. Never tow the
Implement and another Implement connected in tandem. Never tow the
Implement at speeds over 20 MPH.
(STI-06)
Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in death or serious injury.
(SG-10)
Make certain that the “Slow Moving Vehicle” (SMV) sign is installed in
such a way as to be clearly visible and legible. When transporting the
Equipment use the Tractor flashing warning lights and follow all local
traffic regulations.
(SG-6
)
The
SMV
(Slow-Moving
Vehicle)
emblem
is
universal symbol used to alert drivers of the
presence of equipment traveling on roadways at a
slow speed.
SMV signs are a triangular bright
orange with reflective red trim for both easy day
and night visibility.
Make sure the SMV sign is
clean and visible from the rear of the unit before
transporting the tractor and implement on a public
roadway.
Replace the SMV emblem if faded,
damaged, or no longer reflective.
