TOWING SAFETY
WARNING
Unexpected Separation Hazard
If the safety chain does not have a current
certification tag, do not use the unit until
properly certified chains are installed. Substandard
safety chains could allow the unit to separate from
the tow vehicle, resulting in equipment damage and
personal injury .
Loss of Control
A minimum of 20% of the combined tractor
and equipment weight should be on the front
wheels to ensure adequate stability during transport
and operation . To avoid serious injury or death from
a loss of control accident, maintain 20% weight on
the front wheels . Add front end weight if necessary .
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Towing the implement requires care! Both the
implement and tow vehicle must be in good
working condition . Securely attach the unit to
the tow vehicle using a high strength, appropriately
sized hitch pin with a mechanical retainer and attach
the safety chain .

rated equal to, or greater than, the unit’s “gross
vehicle weight rating” (GVWR) .
Check the tires for tread wear, inflation
pressure, and overall condition before towing
the unit .
Inspect the hitch and coupling for wear or
damage . DO NOT tow the unit using a defective
hitch or coupling!
Make sure the lug nuts holding the wheels are
tight (torque to specifications) and that none
are missing .
Do not allow anyone to stand between the
tongue or hitch and the towing vehicle when
backing up to the unit .
Operate the towing vehicle from the operator’s seat
only .
Be aware of physical surroundings and
especially bystanders, particularly children,
before moving the unit! This is particularly
important with higher noise levels and quiet cabs, as
you may not hear people shouting .
Always operate equipment in a position to provide
maximum visibility at all times . Make allowances for
increased length and weight of the equipment when
making turns, stopping, etc .
