Tractor Requirements
The figures in the table below represent a limited number
of configurations. The weight of your drill can vary by
hundreds of pounds, even if it is the same base model,
due to installed options and/or after-market equipment.
If your tractor weight or capability is in question, take
your empty drill to a scale and get a precise weight.
Transport Checklist
❑ Plan the route. Avoid steep hills. Keep clearances in
mind. Folded, your NTA607 or NTA2007 is nearly
4m (13ft) high and is 3m (9.75ft) wide.
❑ Hitch.
Make hydraulic, electrical and optional braking
connections. See “Hitching Tractor to Drill” on
page 26.
❑ Close hopper lids (page 47).
❑ Check that ladders (page 46) and markers (page 62)
are stowed.

Material may be loaded prior to travel, but increases stopping
distance, increases the need for caution in turns and braking,
and increases tire and brake wear.
