OPERATION SECTION

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.

Tire and Wheels

Laminated Sectional tires are designed for conditions where puncture proof performance is required

and the cutter will not be transported for long distances on roadways. transport speed for laminated

tires should not exceed 10 mPH. excessive speed can cause damage to the machine and tire sections.

Sectional tires must be installed such that the rubber segments lay with the ground.

Foam Filled used airplane tires are ideal for conditions where a puncture proof tire is needed and

the cutter is frequently transported between locations.

Pneumatic Implement tires are ideal for frequent long distance towing, however, they are not

puncture proof and are not recommended for mowing brushy areas or other conditions that could

damage the tires. Check side wall of tire for proper inflation pressure. DO nOt over-inflate.

(In some cases, lug nut taper is reversed when tire rim requires such a change-verify with local

dealer)
