•
Securely fasten the machine to the trailer or truck
with straps, chains, cable, or ropes.
•
Secure a trailer to the towing vehicle with safety
chains.
WARNING
Driving on the street or roadway without turn
signals, lights, reflective markings, or a slow
moving vehicle emblem is dangerous and can
lead to accidents causing personal injury.
Do not drive machine on a public street or
roadway.
Loading Machines
Use extreme caution when loading units on trailers or
trucks. One full width ramp that is wide enough to
extend beyond the rear tires is recommended instead of
individual ramps for each side of the unit (Figure 32).
The lower rear section of the tractor frame extends
back between the rear wheels and serves as a stop for
tipping backward. Having a full width ramp provides
a surface for the frame members to contact if the
unit starts to tip backward. If it is not possible to use
one full width ramp, use enough individual ramps to
simulate a full width continuous ramp.
The ramp should be long enough so that the angles
do not exceed 15 degrees (Figure 32). A steeper angle
may cause mower components to get caught as the unit
moves from ramp to trailer or truck. Steeper angles
may also cause the unit to tip backward. If loading on
or near a slope, position the trailer or truck so it is on
the down side of the slope and the ramp extends up the
slope. This will minimize the ramp angle. The trailer or
truck should be as level as possible.
Important:
Do Not attempt to turn the unit while
on the ramp; you may lose control and drive off
the side.
Avoid sudden acceleration when driving up a ramp and
sudden deceleration when backing down a ramp. Both
maneuvers can cause the unit to tip backward.
WARNING
Loading a unit onto a trailer or truck increases the
possibility of backward tip-over and could cause
serious injury or death.
•
Use extreme caution when operating a unit on
a ramp.
•
Use only a single, full width ramp; Do Not use
individual ramps for each side of the unit.
•
If individual ramps must be used, use enough
ramps to create an unbroken ramp surface
wider than the unit.
•
Do not exceed a 15 degree angle between ramp
and ground or between ramp and trailer or
truck.
•
Avoid sudden acceleration while driving unit up
a ramp to avoid tipping backward.
•
Avoid sudden deceleration while backing unit
down a ramp to avoid tipping backward.
