DANGER!
This Implement is wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting
this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard
rails, concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the
Implement and Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious
injury, or even death. Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles.

8. DRIVING THE TRACTOR AND SNOW BLOWER
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 implement and the tractor operating controls are set for safe transport. To ensure safety while driving
the tractor with an attached implement, review the following.
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 Implement. 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 Implement 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 Implement 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 Implement 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 Implement,
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.
