23 - OPERATING THE POWER UNIT
WARNING: The deck height of cut must
be at the highest cutting height to pre-
vent contacting the deck with the trailer
or truck.
WARNING: Never exceed a 15 degree
angle between the ramps and the truck
or trailer when loading the mower.
WARNING: Avoid sudden acceleration
and deceleration of the unit when load-
ing and unloading the unit to avoid the
mower from tipping backward.
The ramp should be long enough that the angles
Front Tie Downs
between the truck or trailer do not exceed 15
degrees. A steeper angle may cause the mower
deck components to get hung up when moving
the mower from ramp to truck or trailer. If loading
on or near a slope, position the truck or trailer on
the down side of the slope and the ramps should
extend up the slope. This will minimize the ramp
angle. The trailer or truck should be parked as
level as possible to facilitate smooth loading of
the mower.
TRANSPORTING THE MOWER
Use a heavy duty trailer or truck to transport the
mower. Insure the trailer or truck has all of the
necessary lighting and markings as required by
law.
When transporting the mower, make sure the
motion control arms are in the park position, the
wheels have been blocked, the machine has been
securely fastened by cables, chains or ropes, and
the trailer has been secured to the towing vehicle
with safety chains. Tie down locations have been
built into the machine to facilitate ease during
this process. Note the tie down locations in the
illustration.

WARNING: Driving on a public street
or roadway without turn signals, slow
moving vehicle emblem, or reflective
markings could lead to accidents caus-
ing serious personal injury or death. Do
not drive the mower on a public street
or roadway.
