Transport Machinery Safely

Maximum transport speed for the cart is 20 mph
(32 km/h). Some rough terrains require a slower speed.
Sudden braking can cause a towed load to swerve and
upset.
Latch auger.
Do not tow a load that weighs more than 1.5 times the

weight of the tractor.

Do not exceed 20 mph (32 km/h). 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 national, regional and local laws.
Follow your tractor manual recommendations for maximum

hitch loads. Insufficient weight on tractor steering wheels
will result in loss of control.

Carry reflectors or flags to mark cart and drill in case of

breakdown on the road.

Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions

when transporting.

Wear Protective Equipment

Wear protective clothing and equipment.
Wear clothing and equipment appropriate for the job. Avoid

loose-fitting clothing.

Because prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause

hearing impairment or hearing loss, wear suitable hearing
protection such as earmuffs or earplugs.

Because operating equipment safely requires your full

attention, avoid wearing entertainment headphones while
operating machinery.
