Braking when towing can cause the load to jackknife. Use
extra care when towing in adverse conditions such as mud,
inclines and sharp bends.
Lower towing speeds are recommmended on farm roads/
tracks and where one wheel is on or over a road verge.

Attach safety chains to tractor.
Safety chains must be crossed over underneath the
coupling and attached to the towing vehicle. The
attachment points must be as close as practical to the
towing coupling and one each side.The towbar on the
towing vehicle must be rated for the towed mass.
Do not
remove or replace the safety chains provided with any
other than those specified in the parts manual.
Note:
The safety chains are provided with sufficient
length to cater for all towing vehicles. Safety chains must
be shortened by cutting off excess length so that if the
coupling fails the drawbar will not hit the ground.
