Towing with the Engine Running
Towing with the engine running is necessary due to forced lubrication of the gearbox, observe the following

Engine speed between 1,200 - 1,300 rpm.

Maximum towing speed 8 km/h

Maximum towing distance 1 km
For towing the tractor use only a standard bar applied to the front towing hitch approved by the manufacturer.
Make sure to use the correct pin for the towing hitch and that it is secured with its locking pin.
Clean all lights required for road use, front and rear, and make sure they are in working order.
Before starting towing check the following conditions:

Unhitch any implement from the tractor;

Lock the two brake pedals together with the connecting latch;

Disengage the power take-off and differential locks;

Set the shuttle control lever and gear lever to neutral;


Turn on the warning lights and the beacon light. Attach suitable notice sign that
the tractor is being towed. Check and comply with the applicable national legislation. Comply with
the local safety regulations.
When driving on the road, observe the following:

Wait for traffic to thin down before entering the road. Be very careful at intersections without traffic
control.

Slow down to have a clear view in both directions.

Keep the vehicle in your lane and drive as close as possible to the right side of the road. If there are
vehicles behind you, pull into a lay-by as soon as possible to allow the vehicles to pass.

Apply the parking brake when the tractor is stopped (at any circumstances).

