Important Safety Information
Transport Machinery Safely
Maximum transport speed for implement is 32 km/h
(20 mph). Some rough terrains require a slower speed.
Sudden braking can cause a towed load to swerve and
upset.
Do not exceed 32 km/h (20 mph). Never travel speeds
which do not allow adequate control of steering and
stopping. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with
brakes.
Comply with state and local laws.
Do not tow an implement that, when fully loaded, weighs
more than 1.5 times the weight of towing vehicle.
Carry reflectors or flags to mark planter in case of
breakdown on the road.
Keep clear of overhead power lines and other
obstructions when transporting. Refer to transport
dimensions under “
Do not fold or unfold the planter while the tractor is
moving.
Shutdown and Storage
Lower planter, put tractor in park, turn off engine, and
remove the key.
Block tires with wheel chocks provided.
Secure planter using blocks and supports provided.
Detach and store planter in an area where children
normally do not play.
Tire Safety
Tire changing can be dangerous and should be
performed by trained personnel using correct tools and
equipment.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension
hose long enough for you to stand to one side–not in front
of or over tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available.
When removing and installing wheels, use wheel-handling
equipment adequate for weight involved.
