Use Safety Lights and Devices
◼
Driving on public roads, slow-moving tractors, self-propelled equipment, and towed
implements can create a hazard. They are challenging to see, especially at night.
◼
Use flashing warning lights and turn signals whenever driving on public roads. Use lights and
devices provided with the implement.
3.6.2
Transport Machinery Safely
◼
Comply with state and local laws.
◼
The maximum transport speed for any Victory implement is twenty mph on paved surfaces and
ten mph maximum on an unpaved surface. Do not exceed. Never travel at a speed that does
not allow adequate control of steering and stopping. Rough terrain requires a slower speed.
Traveling excessively on uneven terrain that causes violent shaking or bouncing will damage
the attachment point on the implement and/or the tractor. This type of damage is not covered
under warranty.
◼
Use the following maximum speed - for paved surfaces only:
-
20 mph when weight is less than or equal to the weight of the tractor.
-
10 mph when weight is more than the weight of the tractor.
