Use A Safety Chain
Use a safety chain to help control drawn machinery should
it separate from tractor draw-bar.
Use a chain with a strength rating equal to or greater than
the gross weight of towed machinery.
Attach chain to tractor draw-bar support or specified
anchor location. Allow only enough slack in chain for turns.
Replace chain if any links or end fittings are broken,
stretched or damaged.
Do not use safety chain for towing.
Keep Riders Off Machinery
Riders obstruct the operator’s view. Riders could be
struck by foreign objects or thrown from the machine.
Never allow children to operate equipment.
Keep all bystanders away from machine during operation.
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
driving on public roads.
Use lights and devices provided with implement.
Transport Machinery Safely
Maximum transport speed for implement is 20 mph (32
kph), 13 mph (22 kph) in turns. Some rough terrains
require a slower speed. Sudden braking can cause a
towed load to swerve and upset.
Do not exceed 20 mph. Never travel at a speed which does
not allow adequate control of steering and stopping. 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
breakdown on the road.
Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions
when transporting. Refer to transport dimensions under
Specifications and Capacities” on page 130.
Do not fold or unfold the planter while the tractor is
moving.
