6. Transportation
If the tractor is to be driven by the owner, local traffic regulations should be strictly observed with at
least 180 feet of distance maintained between vehicles. If the tractor is being transported, the following
procedures should be followed:
1.
A smooth, level spot should be selected for loading and unloading the tractor. A special unloading
platform should be used if one is available.
2.
Have one helper available for guiding and make sure the area is clear of everyone else.
3.
After loading, the lift should be placed at the lowest position, the hand brake set, the reverse gear
engaged, the ignition switch turned off, and the key taken out.
4.
The front and rear tires should be fixed in place with straps in a figure 8 pattern. Both front and rear
tires should be blocked and the rear axle secured with straps.
5.
The tractor should be pulled inside an enclosed trailer or moved to the center of a flatbed trailer as far
as possible and the rear view mirror may be taken down when necessary.
6.
When tunnels and bridges are encountered, full attention must be paid to the load height, and
speed should be adjusted for road safety.
7.
While unloading, the hand brake should be released first. The drive gear should then be engaged an
the tractor should be unloaded slowly and carefully at the lowest tractor speed.
