Operation
Operating Tips
•
The TransPro 80 trailer is intended for use with
Greensmaster 800, 1000, 1600, 2000, 2600
machines, Flex 18, 21, 1800, 1820, 2100, 2120
machines, and eFlex 1800, 1820, 2100, 2120 walk
Greensmaster machines. The towing of other
products may damage the axles and transmissions
that continue to rotate when towed.
•
Use only a vehicle with the proper tow rating
.
The TransPro 80 trailer and 1 greensmower weigh
approximately 400 lb (182 kg). Ensure that the
tow vehicle has adequate braking and handling
capacity by checking the recommendations of the
vehicle manufacturer.
•
Ensure that the trailer is properly connected to
the tow vehicle before loading or unloading the
greensmower to prevent sudden unintended
tongue movement or flip up. Use a retention
device on the hitch pin to secure the connection.
Important:
The trailer tongue should be
parallel to the ground when you align it with
the tow-vehicle hitch.
•
During transport, use the bungee strap to secure
the greens mower to the trailer (
). You
can move the bungee strap to different mounting
holes to accommodate different mowers.
Note:
Secure the bungee strap to the grass
basket horns or to the grass basket loop on
eFlex/Flex 1800/2100 machines.

The TransPro 80 trailer adds extra towing weight
to the vehicle. Drive the vehicle safely.
– Do not drive on highway or public roads.
– Always slow the tow vehicle when approaching
and while making a turn.
– Always slow the tow vehicle when driving in
unfamiliar areas or over rough terrain.
– Always slow the tow vehicle gradually when
changing direction of travel or preparing to
stop.
– When turning or driving on slopes, always slow
the tow vehicle, then turn to prevent loss of
control and possible upset.
–
Do not
make sudden or sharp turns.
Do not
suddenly change direction of travel on an
incline, ramp, grade, slope or similar surface.
– The maximum towing speed is 15 mph (24
kmh). Always adjust the tow vehicle speed to
allow for existing ground conditions, such as
wet slick surfaces, loose sand or gravel and/or
low visibility conditions, such as dim or bright
lighting, fog, mist or rain.
– Be especially careful when driving a heavily
loaded vehicle down an incline or slope. Drive
the vehicle up and down the face of the slopes,
inclines or grades whenever possible.
Do not
drive across the face if at all possible. There is
a risk of upsetting the vehicle, which can result
in serious injury or death.
