Section 1
The use of a flashing amber light is acceptable in most localities. However, some
localities prohibit their use. Local laws should be checked for all highway lighting and marking
requirements.
When driving the tractor and equipment on the road or highway at night or during the
day, use flashing amber warning lights and a slow moving vehicle (SMV) identification em-
blem.
Plan your route to avoid heavy traffic.
Be a safe and courteous driver. Always yield to oncoming traffic in all situations, in-
cluding narrow bridges, intersections, etc.
Be observant of bridge loading ratings. Do not cross bridges rated lower than the
gross weight at which you are operating.
Watch for obstructions overhead and to the side while transporting.
Always operate equipment in a position to provide maximum visibility at all times.
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE:
Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble.
Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate the engine of the towing vehicle
in a closed building. The exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation.
Before working on this machine, stop the towing vehicle, set the brakes, disengage
the PTO and all power drivers, shut off the engine and remove the ignition keys.
Be certain all moving parts on the machine have come to a complete stop before
attempting to perform maintenance.
Always use a safety support and block the wheels. Never use a jack to support the
machine.
Always use the proper tools or equipment for the job at hand.
Use extreme caution when making adjustments.
Follow the torque chart in this manual when tightening bolts and nuts.
