13.1 Transporting on Public Roadways
Never allow children or other persons to ride on the Tractor or Implement.
Falling off can result in serious injury or death.
(SG-10)
Make certain that the “Slow Moving Vehicle” (SMV) sign is installed in
such a way as to be clearly visible and legible. When transporting the
Equipment use the Tractor flashing warning lights and follow all local
traffic regulations.
(SG-6 )
13.2 Transporting on Public Roadways
Extreme caution should be used when
transporting the tractor and implement on public
roadways. The tractor must be equipped with all
required safety warning features including a SMV
emblem and flashing warning lights to alert
drivers of the tractor’s presence. Remember that
roadways are primarily designed for
automotive drivers and most drivers will not be
looking out for you, therefore, you must look out
for them. Check your side view mirrors frequently
and remember that vehicles will approach quickly
because of the tractor’s slower speed. Be
extremely cautious when the piece of equipment
that you are towing is wider than the tractor tire
width and/or extends beyond your lane of the
road.
OPS-SB- 0023
The SMV (Slow-Moving Vehicle) emblem is
universal symbol used to alert drivers of the
presence of equipment traveling on roadways at a
slow speed. SMV signs are a triangular bright
orange with reflective red trim for both easy day and
night visibility. Make sure the SMV sign is clean and
visible from the rear of the unit before transporting
the tractor and implement on a public roadway.
Replace the SMV emblem if faded, damaged, or no
longer reflective.
