(5) Notices when towing the tractor
(6) Notices when transporting the tractor
 When transporting the tractor by truck, trailer,
etc., use suitable equipment or facilities to
load or unload the tractor.
 Fix the tractor tightly to the vehicle with heavy-
duty straps or chains.
 When fixing the rear of the tractor, use the hitch
or hitch support.
 When fixing the front of the tractor, use the
towing hook.

When driving on public roads, the transporting
vehicle must have signs and lights required by
local regulation to avoid collision with a vehicle.
▶
When fixing the tractor, do not hook or connect chains to the 4WD shaft, steering
cylinder, tie-rod or front axle. These can be damaged by the chain or excessive
strain.
▶
In case of turbocharger engine (where fitted), cover the exhaust outlet to protect
that the turbocharger does not rotate by air without lubrication.
Caution
 Do not use cables or rope to tow the machine. If the cable or rope breaks or slips, it may whip back
with enough force to cause serious injury. When using a chain, attach the chain with the hook's
open side facing UP. If the hook slips, it will drop down instead of flying up.
 Never attempt to start the machine by towing. The machine could start unexpectedly.

Do not tow the machine on public roads. Towing could cause a safety hazard for other vehicles
using the roadway.
For further information, see chapter 4-4-(4) in this manual.
 If your tractor needs to be towed for a short
distance, use the hitch (or drawbar) or front
towing hook. Do not connect to the other
structure such as rear axle, ROPS, front axle,
and steering components for towing.
 Your tractor can be steered for a short distance
without engine running, but it will be hard to turn
the steering wheel. If possible, run the engine
for steering and lubrication.
 When being towed, disengage the 4WD,
differential lock, parking brake and place all the
transmission gear levers in the neutral position.
