To prevent damage to the equipment and injury to livestock, do not park equipment where it will
be exposed to livestock for long periods of time.

HIGHWAY AND TRANSPORT OPERATIONS
Keep the brake pedals latched together at all times. Never use independent braking with machine in
tow as loss of control and/or upset of unit can result.
Always drive at a safe speed relative to local conditions and ensure that your speed is low enough
for an emergency stop to be safe and secure. Keep speed to a minimum.
Reduce speed prior to turns to avoid the risk of overturning.
Avoid sudden uphill turns on steep slopes.
Always keep the tractor or towing vehicle in gear to provide engine braking when going downhill.
Do not coast.
Comply with state and local laws governing highway safety and movement of farm machinery on
public roads.
Use approved accessory lighting, flags and necessary warning devices to protect operators of other
vehicles on the highway during daylight and nighttime transport. The use of flashing amber lights is
acceptable in most localities. However, some localities prohibit their use. Local laws should be
checked for all highway lighting and marking requirements.
When driving the tractor and mixer/feeder on the road or highway under 20 MPH (40 KPH) at night
or during the day, use flashing amber warning lights and a slow-moving vehicle (SMV)
identification emblem.
Plan your route to avoid heavy traffic. Be a safe courteous driver. Always yield to oncoming traffic
in all situations, including narrow bridges, intersections, etc.
Be observant of bridge loading ratings. Do not cross bridges rated lower than the gross weight at
which you are operating. Watch for obstructions overhead and to the side while transporting.
Always operate mixer/feeder in a position to provide maximum visibility at all times.
Make allowances for increased length and weight of the mixer/feeder when making turns, stopping
the unit, etc.
