LOADING MOWER ON TRAILER _______________________________________
Use care when loading and unloading mower onto trailer. Fasten mower to trailer, using tie downs on left and right side
and rear of mower, to prevent mower from rolling or shifting during transport.
If the mower experiences problems and must be shut down and removed from the area, it should be towed back to the
maintenance area, or loaded onto a trailer for transport. See Towing Mower on page 54 for towing instructions.
Fully raise reels before driving up trailer ramp. Lift arms must be in lift locks and bumpers properly adjusted to prevent
damage to reels, mower, or other objects.
If the mower is to be trailered on the highway, before strapping to trailer, inflate tires to 22 psi (1.5 BAR). After unloading
mower, reduce tire pressure to normal operating pressure. See Tires on page 69 .
Always secure armrest cover in closed position with a strap when transporting.
Make certain key switch is in OFF position and key removed.
If mower is unable to drive onto trailer on its own power, follow this procedure:
1. Follow procedure for disengaging parking brake.
See
Towing Mower
on page 54 .
2. Make sure reels are raised. If they cannot be raised, remove them from the mower.
3. Make certain key switch is in OFF position and key removed.
4. Use a winch or other device to load mower onto trailer. Mower must be moved in a straight line to prevent damage to
steering system.
5. Use tie down at rear of mower for attaching winch. If front tie downs must be used, winch must be connected to both
the left and right tie downs.
6. With mower strapped down to trailer, remove brake release harness. Brake must be disengaged again before
unloading mower.
7. Carefully unload mower from trailer using a winch or other device to slowly get mower down trailer ramp. Mower
brakes have been disabled and are not able to stop mower.
