RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TILT-UP DECK
OPERATION/TRANSPORT
To avoid potential deck and/or tractor damage while
using the tilt-up deck, the following recommenda-
tions are offered:
•
Do not move the tractor
with the deck in the tilt-
up position since both the roller wheels (on the back
of the deck) and the GHS discharge chute may be
damaged by moving the tractor. The tilt-up configu
-
ration should only be used when the tractor is
parked.
•
The tractor
body should never be tilted for-
ward
with the deck in the tilt-up position. This can
cause the deck to unhook from the tractor and fall
with considerable force, potentially causing deck or
tractor damage and/or bodily injury.
•
When transporting a tractor with the deck in the
tilt-up position (on a truck or trailer), the
deck should
be secured
to the vehicle with a strap or rope (stop
vertical movement). This will prevent the deck from
bouncing on the rear roller wheels (causing break-
age). This will also prevent the deck from unhooking
from the tractor and falling, potentially causing deck
or tractor damage. Damage to other items parked
in front of the deck may also occur.
