Use Safety Lights and Devices

Slow-moving tractors and towed implements can create

a hazard when driven on public roads. They are difﬁcult

to see, especially at night.

▲ Use ﬂashing warning lights and turn signals whenever driv-

ing on public roads.

Use lights and devices provided with implement

Transport Machinery Safely

Maximum transport speed for implement is 20 mph (32

kph). Some rough terrains require a slower speed. Sud-

den braking can cause a towed load to swerve and

upset.

▲ Do not exceed 20 mph (32 kph). Never travel at a speed

which does not allow adequate control of steering and stop-

ping. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with

brakes.

▲ Comply with state and local laws.

▲ Do not tow an implement that, when fully loaded, weighs

more than 1.5 times the weight of towing vehicle.

▲ Carry reﬂectors or ﬂags to mark planter in case of break-

down on the road.

▲ Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions

when transporting. Refer to transport dimensions under

“Speciﬁcations and Capacities” on page 74.

▲ Do not fold or unfold the planter while the tractor is mov-

ing.

Shutdown and Storage

▲ Lower planter, put tractor in park, turn off engine, and

remove the key.

▲ Secure planter using blocks and supports provided.

▲ Detach and store planter in an area where children nor-

mally do not play.
