9. DRIVING THE TRACTOR AND MOWER
Safe tractor transport requires the operator possess a thorough knowledge of the model being operated and
precautions to take while driving with an attached implement. Ensure the tractor has the capacity to handle the
weight of the mower and the tractor operating controls are set for safe transport. To ensure safety while driving
the tractor with an attached mower, review the following.
DANGER!
Never run the Tractor engine in a closed building or without adequate ventilation.
The exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health.
(SG-23)
1. Test the Tractor at a slow speed and increase the speed slowly. Apply
the Brakes smoothly to determine the stopping characteristics of the
Tractor and Mower. As you increase the speed of the Tractor the stopping
distance increases. Determine the maximum safe transport speed for
you and this Equipment.
2. Test the equipment at a slow speed in turns. Increase the speed through
the turn only after you determine that it is safe to operate at a higher
speed. Use extreme care and reduce your speed when turning sharply to
prevent the Tractor and Mower from turning over. Determine the maximum
safe turning speed for you and this equipment before operating on roads
or uneven ground.
3. Only transport the Tractor and Mower at the speeds that you have
determined are safe and which allow proper control of the equipment.
Transport only at safe speeds. Serious accidents and injuries can result from operating
equipment at unsafe speeds. Understand the Tractor and Mower and how it handles before
transporting on streets and highways. Make sure the Tractor steering and brakes are in
good condition and operate properly. Before transporting the Tractor and Mower, determine
the safe transport speeds for you and the equipment. Make sure you abide by the following
rules:
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with weak or faulty
brakes. When operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance
increases, use extreme care and reduce your speed in these conditions. When operating
in traffic, always use the Tractor’s flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be
aware of traffic around you and watch out for the other guy
