Make sure that all tractor flashing warning lights, headlights, and brake/taillights are functioning properly before
proceeding onto public roads. While newer model tractors have plenty of lighting to provide warning signals and
operating lighting, most older models were only equipped with operating lights. Consult an authorized tractor
dealer for lighting kits and modifications available to upgrade the lighting on older tractor models.
The SMV (Slow-Moving Vehicle) emblem is universal
symbol used to alert drivers of the presence of
equipment traveling on roadways at a slow speed. SMV
signs are a triangular bright orange with reflective red
trim for both easy day and night visibility. Make sure
the SMV sign is clean and visible from the rear of the
unit before transporting the tractor and implement on a
public roadway. Replace the SMV emblem if faded,
damaged, or no longer reflective.
13.1 Transporting on Public Roadways
Extreme caution should be used when transporting
the tractor and implement on public roadways. The
tractor must be equipped with all required safety
warning features including a SMV emblem and flashing
warning lights to alert drivers of the tractor’s presence.
Remember that roadways are primarily designed for
automotive drivers and most drivers will not be looking
out for you, therefore, you must look out for them.
Check your side view mirrors frequently and remember
that vehicles will approach quickly because of the
tractor’s slower speed. Be extremely cautious when
the piece of equipment that you are towing is wider
than the tractor tire width and/or extends beyond your
lane of the road.
Make certain that the “Slow Moving Vehicle” (SMV) sign is in-
stalled in such a way as to be clearly visible and legible. When
transporting the Equipment use the Tractor flashing warning lights
and follow all local traffic regulations.
