Transporting - Toro UTV500AAC00000 Operator's Manual

! WARNING
Driving this vehicle without extra cau-
tion when towing a trailer will be haz-
ardous. Trailer towing can affect the
handling and braking of the vehicle.
Tow only at low speeds and never
exceed 16 kph (10 mph). Avoid sud-
den accelerations and stopping of
the vehicle. Do not make quick
maneuvers. Avoid uneven surfaces
and do not tow on hills. Never carry
passengers in a trailer unless the
trailer is designed for such use and
has a rigid tow bar. Allow more stop-
ping distance than when not towing a
trailer.

Transporting


NOTE: When transporting the
vehicle, make sure the vehicle is in
park.
Inform the owner/operator that this vehi-
cle must be transported in its normal
operating position (on all four wheels)
and secured with hold-down straps in the
proper areas. Shown is the minimum
number of hold-down straps to be used.
CAUTION
If using additional hold-down straps
in any other areas, care must be
taken not to damage the vehicle.
! WARNING
Use extreme caution when operating
a machine on a ramp.
Ensure that the ROPS will clear the
top of an enclosed trailer.
Use only a full-width ramp; do not use
individual ramps for each side of the
machine.
Do not exceed a 15-degree angle
between the ramp and the ground or
between the ramp and the trailer or
truck.
Ensure the length of ramp is at least
four times (4X) as long as the height
of the trailer or truck bed to the
ground. This will ensure that ramp
angle does not exceed 15-degrees on
flat ground.
Avoid sudden acceleration or decel-
eration while driving the machine on
a ramp as this could cause a loss of
control or a tip-over situation.
