TOWING THE SPRAYER ON A TRAILER
The MacDon Sprayer can be loaded on front or
rear mount trailers while attached to the
windrower, however, check local laws for width
regulations in your area. MacDon advises the
operator to never transport the sprayer: a) without
the transport lights flashing, b) with mixed
chemicals in the tank or c) without the booms in
firm contact with the boom carriers to prevent
bouncing of booms. Refer to the Self-Propelled
Windrower Operator’s manual in the section on
Transporting the Windrower for additional
information on transporting the windrower and the
flashing amber lamp switch location.
