Do not change position of the mower until there are no people or animals around (pay particular
attention to children).
While transporting the mower, put a warning plate with combined lights and reflectors and
warning triangle on the mower.
During transport, always put the mower in its proper and safe transport position. See section 5.3.
Before putting the mower in transport position, make sure that the tractor’s PTO is turned off
and all rotating parts have come to a complete stop.
Do not drive over 25 km/h (15 mph). Drive slower if road conditions are poor, especially on
irregular surfaces or steep slopes.
The behavior of the tractor on the road, such as its turning and braking capacities, are affected
by the implements mounted.
When driving on the road after work, check to make sure that the tires and soil working tools
are clean to prevent the road surface from becoming dirty.
Make sure that the machine is not damaged during transport.
No person and no objects must remain on the mower when driving or transporting.
When taking turns pay particular attention and consider the machine's weight and dimensions.
Bear in mind that when transporting the machine in areas where high voltage lines are present,
exercise special caution as touching the lines with the aggregate is likely.
