CAUTION: When travelling on public roads whether at night or during the day, use
accessory light and devices for adequate warning for operators of other vehicles.

When
raising the machine to the transport position, be sure that propeller shaft does not
contact with tractor or machine.
•
Adjust the tractor’s three point hitch height so that the machine vanes are not lifted more
than 32 inches off the ground.
•
Be sure
to tractor ground speed when turning and leave enough clearance so the
implement does not contact obstacles such as building, trees and fences.
•
Select a safe level ground speed when transporting from one area to another. When
travelling on roadways, transport in such a way that faster moving vehicles may pass you
safely.
•
When travelling on rough or hilly terrain, shift tractor to lower speed.
