attaching a Trailer

The maximum weight of a towed trailer should be less 

than 800 lbs (363 kg).  Secure the trailer with an appropri-

ately sized clevis pin (A, Figure 17) and clip (B).
Excessive towed loads can cause loss of traction and 

loss of control on slopes.  Reduce towed weight when 

operating on slopes.  The surface being driven on greatly 

impacts traction and stability.  Wet or slippery surfaces 

can greatly reduce traction and the ability to stop or turn.  

Carefully evaluate the surface conditions before operat-

ing the tractor and trailer, and never operate on slopes 

greater than 10°.  See SLOPE OPERATION and TOWED 

EQUIPMENT in the safety section of this manual for addi-

tional safety information.

WaRNING

Never store the unit (with fuel) in an enclosed, 

poorly ventilated structure.  Fuel vapors can 

travel to an ignition source (such as a furnace, 

water heater,  etc.) and cause an explosion.
Fuel vapor is also toxic to humans and animals.

12 Volt Power Outlet

The 12-volt accessory outlet is located in the left side 

pod.  It can be used to power small electronic  devices.  

The accessory must be rated at 14 amps or less.

NOTE: Operating a 12-volt accessory, especially with 

the engine at idle, may cause battery discharge.  When 

not using the accessory 

outlet

 it must be covered with 

the rubber plug to prevent moisture from causing a short 

circuit.  Entrance of water into 

outlet

 can cause a short 

circuit.

Storage

Before you store your unit for the off-season, read the 

Maintenance and Storage instructions in the Safety 

Rules section, then perform the following steps:

  •  Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake, and 

remove the key.

  •  Perform engine maintenance and storage measures 

listed in the engine owner’s manual.  This includes 

draining the fuel system, or adding stabilizer to the 

fuel (do not store a fueled unit in an enclosed struc-

ture - see warning).

  •  Battery life will be increased if it is removed, put in 

a cool, dry place and fully charged about once a 

month. If the battery is left in the unit, disconnect the 

negative cable.

Before starting the unit after it has been stored:

  •  Check all fluid levels.  Check all maintenance items.
  •  Perform all recommended checks and procedures 

found in the engine owner’s manual.

  •  Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes 

before use.
