Towing Loads Safely 

 

 

Sto

pping distance increases with speed and weight of towed load. Travel slowly and allow extra 

time and distance to stop. 

 

Total towed weight must not exceed limits specified in towing vehicle operator’s manual. 

 

Excessive towed load can cause loss of traction and loss of control on slopes. Reduce towed 
weight when operating on slopes. 

 

Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment. 

 

Use only approved hitches. Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for towing. Do not 
attach towed equipment except at the approved hitch point. 

 

Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for weight limits for towed equipment and towing on 
slopes. 

 

Do not turn sharply. Use additional caution when turning or operating under adverse surface 
conditions. Use care when reversing. 

 

Do not shift to neutral and coast downhill.

Protect Bystanders

Keep Riders off Towed Attachment 

 

 

Keep riders off of a towed attachment.

thrown off the attachment during sudden starts, stops and turns. 

 

Riders obstruct the operator’s view, resulting in the attachment being used in an unsafe manner. 

 

Keep riders off of the hitch bracket or trailer tongue.
