TRANSPORTING
General
Check for traffic constantly. Be sure you
c
an see that
no one is attempting to pass you and that all traffic is
sufficiently clear from you before making any turns.
WARNING
BE SURE THE SLOW MOVING VEHICLE SIGN IS
INSTALLED ON THE REAR OF THE SPREADER
FOR TRANSPORTING ON ROADWAYS. KEEP THIS
SIGN AND ALL REFLECTIVE DECALS CLEAN. FAIL-
URE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PER-
SONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
CAUTION
REGULARLY CLEAN OFF THE REFLECTIVE TAPE
AT THE REAR AND SIDES OF THE SPREADER
WHEN TRANSPORTING IT ON THE HIGHWAY.
WARNING
DO NOT TOW AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 20
MPH. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERI-
OUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
Operating speed is dictated by the terrain over which
you are traveling. Always use caution. Avoid traveling
on slopes or hills that are unsafe. Also beware of slip-
pery conditions such as traveling over areas
previously spread with manure. If possible, avoid
spreading over areas where manure has been
previously applied.
If you will travel on public roadways and it is le-
gal to do so, you must know all rules governing
such operation. This will include lighting and
brake requirements in addition to traffic rules.
You may also be required to install a safety
chain on the spreader.
Safety Chain Use
CAUTION
A SAFETY CHAIN SHOULD BE INSTALLED
TO RETAIN THE CONNECTION BETWEEN
TRACTOR (OR OTHER TOWING VEHICLE)
AND SPREADER WHENEVER TRAVELING
ON PUBLIC ROADS. A SUGGESTED AT-
TACHMENT IS ILLUSTRATED.
The chain must be strong enough to hold the weight of
the loaded spreader. If using a grab hook at the end(s)
of the chain to secure the chain to itself, a hook latch
must be installed.
The length of the safety chain is not to be any longer
than necessary to turn without interference. If any
chain links or attachment hardware are broken or
stretched, repair before using. Store chain so it does
not corrode or become damaged. Do not use this
chain for other implements because the strength and
length of chain may not be adequate. Identify this
chain for use on this particular spreader.
Safety chain designed for this spreader can be ordered
on page 23.
Use of Lights
Optional lights are offered for your spreader. Lights are
recommended for any spreader operated on public
roads and may be a requirement.
If equipped with lights, plug the electric plug into the
tractor trailer electrical receptacle when hooking
spreader to tractor.
