SML Cart Operations
A 510 or 735 gallon semi-mounted liquid fertilizer cart
(SML-500 or SML-735) is available for the
YP4025A-48TR20 as an accessory. The cart requires
either the Great Plains hydraulic fertilizer pump option, or a
user-provisioned pump. For the Great Plains system, see
the system overview on page 57.
Checklists in this manual include steps for an SML
configuration. Also consult the SML Operator manual
(407-451M).
Loss of Control and Braking Hazards:
Do not transport with more than 50 gallons in the tank.
Cart wheels and trailing implement name wheels fully caster,
providing no resistance to side sway in turns. Severe under-steer
may result. A full SML-735 cart weighs over 12,000 pounds
(5400 kg), and may cause the tractor’s braking capacity to be
exceeded. An accident could result in serious injury or death,
and certain major equipment damage.
Reverse operations may be performed with care with an
SML cart hitched.
Other Cart Operations
The YP4025A-48TR20 product optionally includes a
trailing pintle hitch, intended for use with user-provisioned
fertilizer tank carts. Hitching/hook-up and operating
instructions are found in the tank cart documentation.
Uncontrollable Load Hazard:
DO NOT EVER transport a pintle-hitched nurse tank cart while
hitched to the product (in train) over roads if there is any liquid
in either tank. Tank(s) must be empty for transport, or the tank
must be towed separately.
Machine Damage Hazard:
Do not attempt reverse operations with a pull-type trailer
hitched to the product. Trailer direction is extremely difficult to
control.
