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.

Once all mower parts are completely stopped, raise

the mower to transport height. NOTE: When

raising the mower, maintain 1” clearance between

the driveline and mower deck. If additional mower

deck height is needed for safe transport, disconnect

the driveline from the tractor and secure its end to

the mower deck. The mower can then be raised to

the maximum lift height. OPS-R-0033_A

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. OPS-R-0034

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 implement at speeds

greater than 20 MPH. OPS-U- 0018
