4.4 TRANSPORTING
4.4.1.1 Transport ing a Unit: Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to tr anspor t the machine.
Lock brake and block wheels. Securely fasten t he machine to the trailer or truck
with straps, chains, cable, or ropes. Be sure that the trailer or truck has all
necessary lighting and marking as required by law.
Secure a trailer with a safety chain.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦ This unit does not have proper turn signals, lights, reflective
markings, or a slow moving vehicle emblem. These items
are required to drive on a public street or roadway.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦ Driving on a street or roadway without such equipment is
dangerous and can lead to accidents causing personal injury.
♦ Driving on a street or roadway without such equipment may
also be a violation of State laws and the operator may be
subject to traff ic tickets and/or fines.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦ Do not drive a unit on a public street or roadway.
CAUTION
WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦ Loading a unit on a trailer or truck increases the possibility of
backward tip-over.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦ Backward tip-over of the unit could cause serious injury or
death.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦ Use extreme caution when operating a unit on a ramp.
♦ Use only a single, full width ramp; DO NOT use individual
ramps for each side of the unit .
♦ If individual ramps must be used, use enough ram ps t o
create an unbroken ramp surf ace wider than t he unit .
♦ DO NOT exceed a 15° angle between ramp and ground or
between ramp and trailer or truck.
♦ Avoid sudden acceleration while driving unit up a ramp to
avoid tipping backward.
♦ Avoid sudden deceleration while backing unit down a ramp to
avoid tipping backward.
4.4.2Loading a Unit: Empty grass bags before attempting to load unit on tr ai ler or truck.
Use extreme caution when loading units on trailers or t r ucks. One full width ramp that is
wide enough to extend beyond the rear tires is required instead of individual ramps for
each side of the unit. The lower rear section of the tractor fr am e extends back between
the rear wheels and serves as a stop for tipping backward. Having a full width ramp
provides a surface for the frame members to contact if the unit starts to tip backward. If
it is not possible to use one full width ramp, use enoug h individual ramps to simulate a
full width continuous ramp.
13
Page 14
Ramp should be long enough so that the angles between the ramp and the ground and
the ramp and the trailer or tr uck do not exceed 15°. A steeper angle may cause mower
deck components to get caught as the unit moves from ramp to t r ailer or t ruck. Steeper
angles may also cause the unit to tip backward. If loading on or near a slope, position
the trailer or truck so it is on the down side of the slope and the ramp extends up the
slope. This will minimize the ramp angle. The t railer or truck should be as level as
possible.
DO NOT attempt to tur n t he unit while on the ramp, you may lose control and drive off
the side.
Avoid sudden acceleration when driving up a ramp and sudden deceleration when
backing down a ramp. Both maneuvers can cause the unit to tip backward.
