If the tractor’s hydraulic pump is not independent of the tractor PTO, or if the tractor PTO has to be run to have
hydraulic power, disconnect the mower driveline from the tractor PTO output shaft. Secure the driveline to the
mower deck to prevent driveline damage or loss during transport.

Before transporting the tractor and mower, idle
the tractor engine, disengage the PTO and wait
for all mower moving parts to come to a
complete stop. Raise the mower section and
ensure transport lock is engage. OPS-F-0057

Before transporting the tractor on a public
roadway or boarding a trailer for transport, the
tractor brake pedals should be locked together.
Locking the pedals ensures that both wheels
brake simultaneously while stopping, especially
when making an emergency stop.

Use extreme caution and avoid hard
applications of the tractor brakes when towing
heavy loads at road speeds. Never tow the
mower at speeds greater than 20 MPH.
